NEW CHANGES TO SPORT BEANS

General Questions Changes to Sport Beans
Sport Beans have a new look and the beans look different, can you explain what changes were made?
 

We have recently made both packaging and formulation improvements to Sport Beans. The new Sport Beans bag is now easier to open, and it’s also re-sealable. We’ve also enhanced our formula. Sport beans are now made with real fruit juices – six in all -- and all natural flavours too. Evaporated cane juice has replaced sugar and tapioca syrup has replaced corn syrup. We also have moved to all natural ingredients for colouring, which is why the appearance has changed for some of the flavours.

What changes have you made to Sport Beans? They look different.
 

Sport Beans have been reformulated and now come in a new re-sealable bag made from a lighter and more portable material. The new formula includes 6 real fruit juices and all natural flavours. We have replaced sugar with evaporated cane juice (sucrose) and corn syrup with tapioca syrup (a mix of the sugars glucose and fructose). All the colours now come from natural sources.

Will the new Sport Beans have any impact on performance?
 

Research studies that investigate how carbohydrate enters into your system shows that a mix of carbohydrate sources, such as those from tapioca syrup and evaporated cane juice, are better used by the body when compared to a single carbohydrate source like glucose alone in a sports product. Also, the real fruit juices used in Sport Beans add an extra carbohydrate source that your muscles can also use as fuel.
