Give your body the clean, healthy fuel it craves. You'll Feel
Great, enjoying consistent energy and endurance no matter
how long you exercise. When you Fuel Right you also significantly reduce fatigue and post-workout recovery time.

sugars found in most energy drinks,
bars and gels, Hammer fuels are very
well tolerated by diabetic athletes.

Wellness Foundation to give us their
seal of approval. If these products work
this well for insulin
challenged athletes,
think how well they
will work for you.

of products for before, during, and after any exercise or competition. The new Hammer Bar, Recoverite, and protein products
also cover you for snacks and meal replacement products.
We never use refined, simple sugars, artificial sweeteners, artificial flavors, or artificial colors. This eliminates the roller-coaster energy levels, stomach issues, and GI distress so common
when fueling with sports drinks, gels, and bars that do contain
these undesirable ingredients.

yourself what it feels like to Fuel Right and Feel Great.

Hammer Gel
Hammer Gel
Clean, long-burning energy
• Consistent, reliable energy - no sugar crash
• Easy to consume and assimilate, gentle on the stomach
• Versatile and economical
• Made with real fruit and wholesome ingredients
For over a decade, Hammer Gel has been the benchmark of concentrated carbohydrate energy, primarily because of what it doesn’t
contain—Hammer Gel has no added refined, simple sugars and
artificial colors or sweeteners. Choose either single-serving pouches or the cost-effective jugs for even, reliable energy, not the “flash
and crash” of sugar-loaded products. You get only what’s good for
you: complex carbohydrates, natural ingredients, and real fruit. The
result is a great tasting concentrated fuel source that goes down and
digests easier than any other energy gel. Hammer Gel is versatile
as well – you can drink it straight, add it to your water bottle, or
combine it with Sustained Energy, HEED, and Perpeteum to create a variety of tasty energy combinations for any length activity,
anywhere, anytime.

• Light, non-sweet, non-syrupy taste
• Smooth, even energy—no sugar spikes or crashes
• Help protect against cramps
• Buffer lactic acid
• Low acid formula
• Full spectrum electrolyte profile
• Promote oral health, not tooth decay
• Great value
Sports drinks have been around a long time and for
many athletes they're more convenient than energy
gels. Unfortunately, most sports drinks are not much
more than artificially colored sugar water that does little to aid your performance and even less for your
health. That is why we developed HEED as a healthy
alternative for you. HEED’s subtle tasting, all-complex
carbohydrate formula goes down easily and supplies
you with consistent, long-lasting energy and the electrolytes you need to keep pushing the pace. Because we
add no citric acid to the formula, it will not burn your
throat or stomach no matter how long you drink it.
HEED's sweeteners - stevia and xylitol - are actually
good for you, xylitol being especially beneficial for
helping promote oral health. The full-spectrum, all
chelated mineral, electrolyte profile helps satisfy your
body’s mineral requirements. L-Carnosine and
Chromium Polynicotinate help to buffer lactic acid and
support stable blood glucose levels. If you prefer sport
drinks over energy gels or like to use the two together,
try HEED… and find out what a sports drink done
right can do for your athletic performance.
Whether it be the blistering speed of road criteriums
and mountain bike short track races, or the relentless
suffering of a 200km road races and mountain bike
cross country sluggfests; HEED keeps me hydrat-
ed and fueled so I can be sure I'm at my best.

Cramping is your body’s final warning signal that you’re “on
empty” electrolyte wise. However, your performance is deteriorating and you are slowing down long before you feel the slightest
twinge of a cramp. To keep your body’s muscular, digestive, nervous, and cardiac systems “firing on all cylinders” you need a consistent supply of all electrolytic minerals, not just sodium and potassium. Plus, in many instances, you require greater volumes of electrolytes than any sports drink or gel can provide. That is why
Endurolytes fulfills such a crucial component of your fueling by
supplying your body with a perfectly balanced, full-spectrum, rapidly assimilated electrolyte source, allowing you to meet your widely variable electrolyte needs with tremendous precision, hour after
hour, no matter what the weather throws at you.
• 1–3 capsules 30–60 minutes prior to exercise
• 1–6 capsules each hour during exercise
• 1–3 capsules after exercise

Thanks a million for hooking us up with Endurolytes at the start of RAAM...I
can't even imagine what we would have done without them. I now
know that I would just as soon leave my bike at home before a race than the
goods that you guys provide! - Richard B.

Sustained Energy saved my ultrarunning. Now I have
a plan I will stick to for the duration of a race which is my 100
ounce bladder full of Sustained Energy. I refill that every 5 hours
and move on...no food at all. With this plan I stay nausea free
and energized throughout the run. - Steve P.
Extra Benefits
This product is ideally
suited for the athlete who
wants calories with as little
taste and sweetness as possible. Soy Protein ensures
a minimum of ammonia
being released into the
muscles, further reducing
fatigue and tissue damage.
• Enjoy sustained energy hour after hour
• Easy to digest, no stomach or GI issues
• Reduce muscle fatigue and recovery time
• Improve fat burning
• Buffer lactic acid
• Protein enhanced complex carbohydrate formula
• Unflavored, neutral tasting
One of the original long distance fuels, Sustained Energy
has attained a legendary status in the world of endurance
sports since it’s introduction in 1992. Tested and proven in
virtually every endurance event on the planet, Sustained
Energy’s unique 7:1 carbohydrate to protein ratio, and it's
neutral flavor, is still the first choice of thousands of athletes.
After about two hours of exercise you need to have some
protein in your fuel or you will start to “cannibalize” or break
down precious muscle tissue. So when your exercise goes
beyond the range of Hammer Gel or HEED alone,
Sustained Energy is ready to serve you, providing premium
fuel complemented with specific nutrients that support
enhanced fat utilization and lactic acid buffering.
Give Sustained Energy a try – you’ll have 100% confidence in your fuel – and you’ll understand why it’s been
the choice of thousands of endurance athletes for well over
a decade. For maximum fueling variety and flexibility during your longest and hardest training sessions and races,
mix or alternate Sustained Energy with Hammer Gel,
HEED and/or Perpetuem.

I run ultras. One problem that always plagues me is
upset stomach. After talking to someone at the company I
decided to give Perpetuem a try. The first race I tried it in
was a 50 miler. There were not many drop bags and I had
no crew so I used a super concentration of it, and it
worked. My energy level was even and I ran a solid
race. Thanks! - Todd W.

After years of dealing with next day soreness after a hard
workout and thinking it was a "fact of life" I tried the Recoverite.
After a training run of 28 miles I consumed two scoops in 12
ounces of water and another two scoops about an hour later. I
woke up the next day and to my total surprise I had
no muscle soreness. This stuff is incredible! - Richard B.
Extra Benefits
The amino acid glutamine, also contained in Hammer Whey,
plays a vital role in the health of the muscles, immune system,
and digestive tract. Glutamine is arguably the key "recovery
amino" as it (A) helps boost the immune system (B) helps to
reduce the symptoms of overtraining syndrome (C) plays a role
in enhancing glycogen synthesis (D) stimulates muscle protein
synthesis for the rebuilding of lean muscle tissue.
• Minimize post-exercise muscle soreness
• Optimize muscle recovery
• Replenish depleted electrolytes
• Restore muscle glycogen
• Support immune system integrity
• Pleasant tasting, not too sweet or thick
• Excellent meal replacement drink
How well you perform tomorrow depends on how well you
recover today, which is why you can’t cut corners when it
comes to your post-workout fueling. Recoverite supplies your
body with the proper 3:1 ratio of complex carbohydrates and
the highest quality whey protein isolate, along with generous
amounts of multi-beneficial glutamine (a whopping 3 grams
per serving!), the potent antioxidant l-carnosine, and a fullspectrum electrolyte profile. The result is rapid and enhanced
recovery, which allows you to obtain the maximum value from
all your hard workouts, ideally prepping your body for your
next workout or race. Make sure you’re recovering right with
Recoverite and remember, it makes a superb meal replacement drink as well. Train hard, recover right today and feel
great tomorrow.

Whey Protein
Hammer Whey
Powerful protein
• Protect lean muscle tissue
• Superb immune system support
• Minimize post-exercise muscular soreness
• 6 grams of glutamine per serving
Protein supplementation is absolutely essential for any
hard-training athlete to maintain, repair, and grow lean
muscle mass. Hammer Whey, ideal for supporting your
immune system, as well as enhancing recovery between
workouts and races, helps you obtain the full amount of
protein you need daily.
Whey is the most easily assimilated of all proteins and is
packed with a tremendous amount of naturally occurring
branched chain amino acids. Hammer Whey also contains high amounts of other recovery-specific amino
acids and is glutamine fortified for immune system support. Hammer Whey is 100% whey protein isolate, not
the usually found concentrate, so you get more actual
protein per serving and less lactose and fat.
Hammer Whey is ideal for maximizing recovery after workouts. The
whey isolate proteins in Hammer Whey help to rebuild stressed
muscle tissue. This helps my body to repair and be strong
for the next training session. - Lois W.

Whey Protein Isolate, Glutamine
Extra Benefits
Directions
Contains only 100% undenatured (non-heated) whey isolate,
which is virtually lactose & fat free but rich in immuneenhancing beta-lactoalbumins and alpha-lactalbumins. Gram
per gram we believe you won’t find a higher quality protein at
a better value, especially when you compare the whey protein
isolate in Hammer Whey to cheaper whey concentrates, most
of which contain only 70-85% actual protein and higher
amounts of fat and lactose.
Mix 1 scoop Hammer Whey in a
blender with 1 cup of unsweetened
fruit juice and/or fresh or frozen fruit
and 1 cup of rice milk, soy milk or low
fat cow’s milk. Add ice as desired.
*More mixing/usage ideas are available

Soy Protein
Hammer Soy
Premium vegetable protein
• 100% GMO-free
• Convenient way to increase your protein intake
• Multiple health benefits
• No added sugar, artificial sweeteners or flavorings
$19.95
Extra Benefits
Soy protein has been shown to lower
LDL cholesterol (the bad kind) without
negatively affecting levels of HDL cholesterol (the good kind).
For versatility, concentration and
multiple health benefits, it’s hard to
beat Hammer Soy. Ideal for all
women and for men over 40, soy protein contains several phytochemicals,
which are believed to be beneficial for
helping to support cardiovascular
health, optimal cholesterol levels,
osteoporosis prevention and possibly
cancer prevention. Hammer Soy is a
great way to help you meet your daily
protein requirements, (see chart on
page 13). As with all the Hammer
Nutrition fuels, Hammer Soy is made
only from the highest quality naturally derived ingredients. It contains
absolutely no GMO (genetically
modified organism) soy and has no
added sugars or artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.
I use Hammer Soy almost every day. It gives me high quality
protein that I can count on to help my body adapt to training and
gain strength and fitness. - Matt S.

fruit juice and/or fresh or frozen fruit
and 1 cup of rice milk, soy milk or
low fat cow’s milk. Add ice as
desired. *More mixing/usage ideas

Notes
Due to its specific amino acid profile, and because it produces almost no ammonia, soy protein is the best protein source for use prior to and during exercise. For
a variety of reasons, we recommend that men under 40 not consume excessive
amounts of soy, primarily consuming it via Sustained Energy or Perpetuem during
prolonged exercise.

Perpetuem and Sustained Energy Notes
Concentrating Your Fuels
Sustained Energy vs. Perpetuem?
Mixing Sustained Energy and Perpeteum
into a concentrated “multi-hour bottle” or
“paste” are preferred because they allow you
to be self-sufficient for many hours, requiring only additional plain water along the
way. Using concentrated fuel mixtures also
allows you to avoid burnout from drinking
the same thing hour after hour. Step by step
directions for mixing and usage can be found
in the Hammer Nutrition Product Usage
Manual which accompanies your order. You
can also download free copies of the usage
manual from our web site.
SE is a carb and protein drink with no added
flavors or sweeteners. Perpetuem adds lipids
(fat from soy), Sodium Phosphate, flavor
and a natural sweetener to our original
carb/protein formula. The two products are
interchangeable and both are ideally suited
for any prolonged exercise lasting more than
2 hours. If you want bland calories, SE is
ideal. If you want a liquid meal with more
flavor and sweetness, Perpetuem is for you.
Daily Protein
Intake Chart
*All measurements
shown in grams
needed per day
How much protein do endurance athletes need? Numerous studies have demonstrated that endurance athletes in heavy training
need more protein than recreational athletes do. This chart gives
you a good reference as to how much protein you should consider consuming daily from all sources, diet and supplemental protein powders. More information can be found in “The Guide To
Success” and in the Knowledge section of our website.

• Dramatically increase energy
• Boost your endurance
• Noticeably enhance recovery
• Reduce muscle fatigue
• Greater workload capacity
• Strengthen your immune system
• Guaranteed!
If you’re not taking Race Caps, you
simply are not getting the most out
of your training! Several important
substrates (“spark plugs”) are necessary for the efficient production of
energy from your food and oxygen
intake. Exercise rapidly depletes
these important nutrients. Taking
Race Caps Supreme is like putting
fresh spark plugs in your body, ensuring consistent, efficient energy production. In addition, several ingredi-
ents in Race Caps Supreme are
superb antioxidants and key nutrients
for cardiovascular health. Other suppliers offer anemic attempts at an
endurance supplement, but Race
Caps Supreme stands alone as a safe,
comprehensive, and effective formula
promoting higher energy levels,
increased endurance, and improved
recovery. If there’s one supplement to
buy, this is it.
With Race Caps Supreme I find I can put
100% effort into my racing and training. I

Though all people, especially athletes,
should strive to eat a healthy and balanced diet, few do. Additionally, our
food supply is desperately lacking in
the nutrients once had, up to 90% less
than a few decades ago. These reasons
are why advice such as "you can get all
the nutrients you need from your
food" is hopelessly outdated and why
the
consistent
use
of
a
multivitamin/mineral supplement is
essential. The key to obtaining noticeable benefits is to provide your body
with optimal amounts of nutrients,
not just minimum "daily recommended" amounts, and that's where

Extra Benefits
What have you done for your mitochondria lately? The unique MitoR Caps formula, which incorporates some exciting recent discoveries in cellular physiology, helps
mitochondria (the thousands of
energy-producing “furnaces” in the
cells of your body) work more efficiently and stay healthier. To quote
one nutritional expert, “The longer
you can stimulate the lifespan or
health of the mitochondria, the
longer you will live and the better
you will perform in endurance
events. The athlete who has the
most healthy/efficient mitochondria is the athlete who performs at
their best.” The take-home message
is that if you take care of your mitochondria they’ll take care of you in
so many ways. In addition to those
extraordinary benefits, thanks to
several of the nutrients in the formula, improved brain health and
function is another benefit you may
expect from Mito-R Caps.
Lipoic acid (in the preferred “r” isomer form
used in Mito-R Caps) is often called the “universal antioxidant” because, unlike other
antioxidants, it scavenges both water and fatsoluble free radicals.
I just became the first female over 60 to finish
Leadville 100 MTB race in under 12 hours. I felt
strong on all the climbs, altitude never bothered
me and I walked away from it like a walk in the

Mito-R Caps, every hour was a major
reason for my success. Thank you for great

Extra Benefits
Grape seed extract not only possesses antioxidant benefits, but is believed to provide powerful anti-viral,
anti-bacterial, and anti-inflammatory benefits as well.
Vinpocetine is purported to be very beneficial in helping prevent or relieve hearing loss due to a variety of
causes, as well as tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and vertigo (sensation of dizziness).
Everything you do, including breathing, creates free radicals
and when you exercise the amount increases dramatically.
Excess free radicals can easily overwhelm your body's natural
antioxidant defense systems, wreaking havoc on your athletic
endeavors and, more importantly, your health. Antioxidants
neutralize free radicals, but merely taking some vitamin C
and E won't cut it. You need as much antioxidant support as
possible from a wide variety of sources.
Super AO's unique combination of herbal, enzyme, and
amino acid antioxidants complements, but doesn't duplicate,
the antioxidants you may already be taking. Super AO is
designed to help protect your immune system, enhance circulation, and accelerate recovery, thus preserving all the hardearned gains you make in training. The harder you train, the
more you need Super AO in your recovery regimen.
This was my secret weapon. Training for
an Ironman requires a ton of work with very
few "days off" and you need to have the
ability to recover especially from those hard
workouts. Super AO did just that. This is a
product I do not want to tell my competition about! - John M.

My physical performance is improving and my

The trace mineral chromium has profound
effects on both general health and athletic
performance. By supplementing your post
workout/race fuel with chromium polynicotinate (not to be confused with chromium
picolinate or other forms of this mineral)
enhances recovery because it helps to increase
the rate of glycogen synthesis. Additionally,
chromium plays a vital role in energy production and the synthesis of glucose, fatty acids,
and amino acids. Considered by many experts
to be the “master nutrient” for controlling
blood sugar, chromium is an important nutrient for everyone, especially diabetic athletes,
athletes with hypoglycemia, and for anyone
wishing to maintain optimal weight. Taking a
Chromemate capsule with meals can help
you maintain consistent energy throughout
your day and eliminate the dreaded midafternoon fade.

Boron isn’t as well known as other minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus, but they can’t do
their job without it. Boron is vital for the production of
certain anabolic hormones that help maintain healthy
bone mineral mass and ensure complete recovery from
high-volume training. Studies also indicate adequate
boron intake may decrease your risk of prostate cancer.

isn’t getting from their paltry intake of commercially grown, nutrient-diminished produce shipped
across the continent, or even farther.
Phytomax is produced from Hydrilla verticilata, an
aquatic plant with an impressive nutrient profile of
vitamins, minerals, enzymes, fatty acids, antioxidants, RNA, DNA, chlorophyll, and other phytonutrients. Specific harvesting methods and special
low-heat drying & fine-grinding processes preserve
the “living” enzymes and rich nutrients stored in the
plant, making Phytomax unequaled in nutrient density and bioavailability by any “green food” product
currently on the market. All athletes should increase
their intake of fresh, locally grown organic produce,
but most of us either don’t have it readily available,
or we take dietary short cuts. That’s why Phytomax
belongs in your daily supplement program.

Digest Caps
$12.95
Sickness begins in the gut
Healthy intestines = better athletic performance & overall health
• Improve intestinal health
• Support immune and digestive system function
• Increase nutrient absorption
• Help prevent increased ammonia levels and fatigue
All bacteria are not created equal.
Infections, poor diet, stress, overuse
of NSAID medications, antibiotics,
and even chlorinated water can
deplete or destroy the healthy bacteria living in the human digestive system. This can allow undesirable bacteria to flourish and compromise
digestive system function, nutrient
absorption, intestinal health, and
immunity. Containing substantial
amounts of three potent strains of
healthy bacteria, Digest Caps tilts
the all-important balance of intestinal flora in favor of the “good
guys.” This helps prevent negative
intestinal flora from wiping out your
hard-earned training gains and compromising your health. If you’re at
risk because of any of the abovementioned intestinal stressors, do
yourself a favor by taking Digest
Caps. Better yet, keep a bottle on
hand so you’ll always be ready to
right the ship.

Extra Benefits
I've always seemed to have trouble with adequate food digestion. I often have painful
bloating that is exacerbated with certain foods. I started taking Digest Caps to see if it would
help because I was tired of this discomfort during my workouts and races. I have found that
if I'm taking Digest Caps regularly, I no longer notice any painful bloating
problems and have found that I recover faster from my workouts. - Allison H.
Healthy intestinal flora balance helps prevent the liberation of high levels of ammonia caused by digestion of protein-containing foods. This may help alleviate or even
prevent ammonia-produced fatigue.

you invested a few dollars in Appestat.
We’ve got lots of grizzlies here in

Race Day Boost
The ultimate race day advantage
$14.95
Improve your time by up to 8%
• Prolong endurance
• Increase performance time at anaerobic threshold
• Provide unsurpassed lactic acid buffering
• Help boost glycogen storage
Race Day Boost contains one of the most potent legal
ergogenics available for competition. In the most extensive study to date on Race Day Boost’s key ingredient, fit
cyclists, in a 40K time trial, netted a whopping 8%
improvement in performance time! The simple formula
belies its profound effectiveness, aiding in increased cellular energy production and buffering performance-robbing lactic acid. A four-day loading dose of Race Day
Boost prior to a key race can make a noticeable improvement in your performance. This is a special product for
special events, but if you intend to win, you better have
Race Day Boost on board.

• Recommended one to

Extra Benefits
I did my first load with Race Day Boost this week for an important

I managed to win my class by 3.5 minutes and finished 5th fastest

ATP 100
Pure, instant energy
Ready when and wherever you need it
• Get a shot of instant energy
• Restore energy after a hard effort
• Help maintain overall energy production
• Help lessen the perception of fatigue
• Help maintain proper circulation
$19.95
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the chemical compound –
the “energy currency” of the cell – that provides the overwhelming majority of the energy needed by your body.
Under normal conditions (such as at rest) the body can produce all the ATP it needs for a healthy existence. However,
during stressful conditions, such as high-intensity exercise,
the body’s ATP stores are rapidly depleted and cannot be
replenished quickly enough by normal means. When you’re
in a race and you need to step up the effort – be it prior to
attacking a climb or dropping the pack – your body must
have the cellular goods to deliver the performance. And
that’s exactly when ATP 100 shines. When you put an ATP
100 tablet under your tongue and let it dissolve, you get a
nice boost of energy exactly when you need it. It’s perfect for
interval sessions, a hard section of a workout or race, or when
it’s time to put away the competition for good. Try a bottle
(remember, all our products are 100% guaranteed) and make
sure you’ve got the edge when you need it.

Improve heat tolerance and fat
metabolism
• Increase body fluid volume
• Reduce urine output
• Increase sweat for evaporative cooling
• Improve fat metabolism
• Reduce fatigue
• Lower heart rate
Photo / Chris Kostman
In hot conditions, especially beyond a two-hour
effort, your core temperature can increase substantially, causing profuse sweating. The ensuing fluid
depletion forces your heart to work harder and slows
metabolic reactions necessary for efficient fuel transport. This means decreased athletic performance and
increased possibility of dehydration. Liquid
Endurance’s glycerol component increases blood
volume and cellular/intracellular fluid storage capacity, giving you extra fluid reserves. L-carnitine and
vitamin B6 complement glycerol in supporting efficient energy metabolism for fatty acids, imperative
in endurance exercise. Test it in training, and then
see your times drop when it counts. Don’t race in hot
weather without Liquid Endurance.

Notes
Liquid Endurance does not prevent heat stroke, hyponatremia, or any
other dangerous physical condition resulting from over exertion in
extreme heat.
Because glycerol increases the uptake and distribution of L-carnitine
- a key nutrient in the burning of fats for fuel - at the cellular level,
using Liquid Endurance may help support weight loss goals.

Thoroughly tested over several
years in the most extreme athletic

Caps helps remove fatigue-causing,
performance-robbing ammonia.
During extended endurance exercise the body accumulates excess
ammonia from protein metabolism, which interferes with glycogen production, disrupting energy
output. Anti-Fatigue Caps is a
one-of-a-kind product combining
three well-known ammonia-scavenging nutrients. Clean up the
waste products of combustion, or

PSA Caps
PSA Caps - For Men
Premium protection for prostate health
Support for prevention of, or relief from existing problems
• Promote optimal prostate health
• Help prevent or reduce prostate enlargement
• Reduce frequent urination and other associated disorders
• Promote positive muscle growth and recovery
As a man ages it’s common for the prostate gland
to become enlarged, with cyclists being especially
at risk. The condition is called benign prostate
hyperplasia (BPH) – it puts pressure on the urethra, causing a wide variety of unpleasant symptoms. Severe BPH can cause serious problems over
time, including urinary tract infections, bladder or
kidney damage, bladder stones, and incontinence.
PSA Caps is an extremely potent all-natural formula that helps reduce the symptoms of BPH and
other prostate disorders. If you’re over 40 years old,
if you have existing BHP symptoms, if you cycle
regularly or if you’d like an ounce of prevention,
PSA Caps is a must-have supplement for you.

Voler Sizing Note: In 2005, Voler Team Apparel significantly changed their
sizing going from "US" to "European". That means that all of their sizes got
smaller. Many clients had to return their clothing in exchange for the next
size larger. So, when choosing a jersey or other Voler racewear, you should
go up one size if you are unfamiliar with the smaller European sizing.
Likewise, if you are between two sizes, choose the larger size.

Patagonia® Capilene
Capilene® T-Shirt
How does Capilene work?
Capilene products are comprised of polyester fibers. Untreated polyester
is hydrophobic or water repellent. But the surface or skin of Capilene
polyester fibers has been chemically altered to make them hydrophilic.
This fine skin on each strand of polyester attracts moisture away from
the body, while the inner untreated core repels it. Moisture lifts, spreads
and disperses, evaporating into either the air or outer layers. This
process is chemically bonded to the fabric and will not wear or wash out
(we recommend avoiding fabric softeners).

Food Is Your Best Medicine
Sugar Blues
You are what you eat and Dr. Bieler
contends, based on over fifty years of
practice, that proper diet plays a key
role in warding off and curing disease.
A fascinating interpretation of how
the body functions to maintain good
health and addresses all kinds of ailments with specific nutritional
approaches. A pioneering nutrition
classic.
Consumed at the rate of one hundred
pounds for every American each year,
it's as addictive as nicotine or heroin and as poisonous. It's sugar. "Sugar
Blues", is the classic, bestselling expose
that unmasks our generation's greatest
medical killer - yet, at the same time,
shows how a revitalizing, sugar-free
diet can not only change your life, but
quite possibly save it.

Water, the Shocking Truth
Pure Water Now
Learn the best water for your health
and what kind is safe to drink and use.
• Bottled water
• Distilled water
• Soft water
• Tap water
• Fluoridated water
• Mineral water
Water you drink can make or break
your health! Water is essential for
health and healing the body. The
power of pure water is the vital chemistry of life.
Besides the added convenience, freshness and quality people enjoy from
owning a state-of-the-art home distillation system, they have eliminated the
expense of regularly purchasing bottled
water. No longer is distilled water seen
as only a necessity for steam irons and
contact lenses, but for a full range of
personal and household uses. Water of
enhanced quality has suddenly become
a necessity, not a luxury.

The Endurance Athlete’s
GUIDE to SUCCESS
For too long, endurance athletes have been bombarded, and probably
confused by, the plethora of concepts (including some pretty bizarre
ones) regarding the proper fueling of their bodies prior to, during, and
after exercise. To the rescue comes the THE ENDURANCE ATHLETE’S GUIDE TO SUCCESS, which cuts through all the hoopla
and provides a primer regarding these important issues. While finding
the solution to properly fueling the body is a very individualized endeavor requiring consistent practice in training, this handbook provides the
basic guidelines. It serves as the rationale behind the E-CAPS &
HAMMER NUTRITION line of endurance supplements & fuels
which have been successfully used in nearly every conceivable endurance
and ultra endurance contest on the planet.

It is the most comprehensive and concise reference on
endurance nutrition. For busy athletes who need key information
fast this is the "go-to" resource. Athletes can avoid big mistakes by using
this information. This guide actually tells you what you need to do in training and racing, as opposed to a general guide on sports nutrition that discusses vague principles. The information is relevant to entry level athletes
as well as experienced, top level endurance athletes. - Tom D.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR

I highly suggest reading the "Endurance Athletes Guide To Success". After
reading the book and using my "gel mix" I've knocked over 10
minutes off my marathon time, a 3:07 to 2:57. - AJ J.
I just finished reading THE ENDURANCE ATHLETE'S GUIDE TO SUCCESS
and unlike most sports nutrition information I actually found it
easy to read and understand! Thanks for writing such a valuable guide. - Warren J.
Steve's decade-plus involvement in the sports
nutrition industry, as well as nearly 15 years of
independent research in nutritional fueling and
supplementation, has given him unmatched
familiarity with the myriad product choices
available to athletes. Steve provides individual
consultations to athletes of every level - beginner to professional - and in every discipline of
endurance sports, helping them to achieve optimal performance in their training and racing.
Steve says, "I derive just as much pleasure helping other people reach their goals as I do my
own; it's the best part of the job."
Steve's athletic career spans 15 years. He is a
three-time Race Across America finisher, the
1994 Furnace Creek 508 Champion and 1999
runner-up, the only cyclist in history to complete
a Double Furnace Creek 508, and is the holder of
two ultramarathon cycling records. Most recently, Steve was inducted into the Ultramarathon
Cycling Hall of Fame, the fifth person to receive
this recognition. In addition to cycling Steve is
also an avid Nordic skier, having competed in
several marathon races in the past decade.
Along with providing technical support to athletes, Steve is the editor of Endurance News,
authored "The Endurance Athlete's Guide To
