  • Erythritol – Supplemental carbohydrate component
  • Optimized CVG Base – Proven hydration and structure
  • Hydrated to Field Capacity – Ready to mix immediately

Prepared for Clean Handling

  • Prepared in Unicorn XLS-A filter patch bags
  • Double vacuum-sealed for added sterility protection
  • Shelf life up to 2 months when stored properly
