Multi-V is formulated with Ferrochel Iron- a highly bio-available source of iron, which is non-toxic and does not affect the absorption of minerals like other iron sources do.

Hydration is one of the most important things to focus on! Proper hydration helps with nutrient delivery, reduces risk for injury, and is necessary for muscle function. But water alone doesn’t always do the trick, so that’s where Skratch Labs Sports Hydration Mix (formerly Exercise Hydration Mix) comes in! It's the newest formula from Skratch, now with slightly more sodium and less sugar than the previous formula. This mix is unique because it provides carbohydrates and calories, and contains an electrolyte profile that more closely matches what is lost in sweat. It also has two different types of carbohydrate, allowing your body to absorb and use the energy more quickly.
Skratch Labs formulated this hydration mix to be easier on the digestive system and to provide some energy in addition to replacing electrolytes. Not to mention, it’s made with real fruit and is non-GMO, gluten free, dairy free, vegan, and kosher.
