I recently started drinking Sujon Blackcurrant Powder to help with the fatigue I have been feeling from training, especially in my legs. I wanted something that would help with recovery- was tasty and quick and easy to make. Sujon it was and I’m having amazing results so far. For training you should take 2 hours before and just after. As I train super early in the morning I haven’t tested the before training but I have after, it’s a simple tsp added to my glass of almond milk.
Normally on a Friday my legs are pretty fatigued, however I have experienced over the last few Friday’s that this is no longer the case….Fluke or Fact 😛 I’m not stopping regardless, it’s working and at the same time I’m reaping the many benefits….
