For the enthusiasts.

You’re out there for the love of it. You stay fit and hit PB’s for fun.

1 to 3 Hours

Per Hour: 50ml Perple Endurance Mix added to 200 - 300ml of water.

Example of a 2 hour run / ride:100ml of Perple Endurance Mix added to at least 400ml water, to make a 500ml drink, in either of a Perple soft flask or bottle. Consume through your 2 hours of activity.

  • Top Tip 1: If you’re a heavier sweater or in a hot climate, simply mix with more water. For example, add 50ml concentrate to 300ml of water, to make a 350ml drink, for each hour. But, as a general rule, never consume more than 800ml of any fluid in any 1 hour.
  • Top Tip 2: If you run with a vest, belt, or ride with multiple bottle cages, a backpack, or pocket cycle-shirt, always take a reserve 200ml pack of Perple Endurance Mix, and a spare Perple soft flask / bottle of water. Because, if you’re flagging in that 3rd hour, but want to push on, you can always take another 50ml hit of Perple, mixed with at least 200ml of water. Meaning, you would have doubled your dose, in that 3rd hour to 100ml Perple Endurance Mix, mixed with 400ml of water.

Longer than 3 hours (eg: marathon distances)

Per Hour: 100ml Perple Endurance Mix added to at least 400ml water.

Example of a 4 hour road marathon:You’re going to need 2 x 200ml packs of Perple Endurance Mix, a Perple 500ml soft flask or bottle, and a running belt/vest. That’s 8 x 50ml portions. Mix 100ml, with 400ml water in a flask / bottle, to make a 500ml drink. It’s with you at the start, and consume during your first hour. Hold your remaining Perple Endurance Mix portions in a running belt / vest, ready to mix the same again, to make another 500ml drink at a water station, one hour into the race. To then consume in that 2nd hour. Repeat for every subsequent hour.

  • Top Tip 1: If you’re a heavier sweater or in a hot climate, simply mix Perple Endurance Mix with more water, but as a general rule, never consume more than 800ml of any fluid, in any one hour.
  • Top Tip 2: If you run with a vest, you could make ready 2 x 500ml soft flasks to cover you for the first 2 hours, meaning you only have to stop at 1 water station, to make a further 2 x 500ml mixes, for the second half of the marathon.
For the competitors.

You’re super fit, and serious about competition. You target marginal gains and PB’s.

1 to 2 Hours

Per hour: 75ml of Perple Endurance Mix added to at least 300ml water

Example of a 2 hour run / ride: 150ml Perple Endurance Mix added to 600ml water, to make a 750ml drink. Consume during your 2 hours of activity.

  • Top Tip 1: If you sweat heavily or are in hot conditions, mix Perple Endurance Mix with more water. But, as a general rule, do not exceed 800ml per hour.

2 to 3 Hours

Per hour: 100ml of Perple Endurance Mix added to at least 400ml water

Example of a 3 hour run / ride: Could mix total requirements in 3 x 500ml Perple soft flasks / bottles. Or alternatively in a 1.5L hydration bladder, if you run with a vest or ride with a backpack.

  • Top Tip 1: The average athlete consumes 500ml of fluids per hour. But if you sweat more, you can mix Perple Endurance Mix with more water. As a general rule, never consume more than 800ml of any fluid, in any 1 hour.

Longer than 3 hours

Per Hour: 150ml of Perple Endurance Mix added to 600ml of water

Important: With nutritional training, 150ml of Perple Endurance Mix can be mixed with 450ml of water, to make a 600ml drink to be consumed every hour. Giving you 60g carbs per hour, but in a lower solution.

For the extreme: If you compete in ultra or extreme events you can take up to 200ml (80g carbs) of Perple Endurance Mix, added to 600ml of water, to make an 800ml drink, per hour. We advise that you train at these intake levels first before taking into a competition.

  • Top Tip 1:Kidney urine excretion maxes out at 1.2l of water per hour, for experienced extreme athletes. For the rest of us, we advise drinking a maximum of 800ml per hour.

Our ingredients, explained.

Water

Never underestimate the chemical importance of water! Water and the right carbohydrates, together will help your muscles work harder for longer

Coconut water from concentrate, Sweet potato juice from concentrate

Why do we use Sweet Potato Juice and Coconut Water from concentrates?

Because they are rich in all the right nutrients, that are scientifically proven to help us perform during endurance sports.

We form the concentrates, by simply evaporating some of the water content from the ingredients' original juice state. Sealing in all of the important nutrients, that you'll eventually mix with water again, for your complete energy and hydration needs.

Leaving the mixing to you brings substantial environmental benefits too. It means we ship less liquid volume around the world, emitting less CO2, which is better for our planet.

Brown Rice Syrup

We use Brown Rice syrup, because of its complimentary carbohydrate profile, critical in our precise formulations, to give you balanced nutrients, that help you to perform.

The syrup is made by boiling brown rice, to breakdown the high starch content. Too much starch can cause gastrointestinal distress, the last thing you want during exercise.

Agave Syrup

Agave is a Mexican plant that is typically used to make tequila. Yet, by extracting the sap and boiling it, the resulting syrup has a carbohydrate profile that is low on the glycemic index. It plays an important role in our formulations, in making sure that you get constant energy during your sports.

Branched amino acids: L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine

Our Branched-Chain Amino Acids come from Non-GMO corn and not meat. They play an important role in reducing muscle damage during exercise, as well as helping to improve focus.

L-Arginine

Our Arginine, also from Non-GMO corn, is an amino acid that has an important role to play in reducing ammonia from your blood. Doing so, contributes to recovery from hard training.

Colouring Vegetable Concentrate (Black Carrot)

Our colouring foods are entirely natural, straight from the food source itself. In this case black carrots, which give Perple its distinctive Orchid to violet colour. And for a bit of fun, we've kept the colour the same across all flavours.

Natural Flavourings

All of our flavourings, to produce the tantilising Perple tastes, making it easy for you to get down during your sports, are from natural food sources

Acidity Regulators: Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate

Our acidity regulators are organic compounds naturally found in plants. Ours come from Non-GMO corn and are important to maintain the right PH for Perple drinks. This, together with our pastuerisation techniques, and Tetrapak packaging, means that Perple can stay fresh lin the cupboard!) for 12 months, without using controversial chemical preservatives.

Frequently asked questions.

Are Perple's products suitable for all sports?

Yes, our products are versatile and suitable for a wide range of sports, including running, cycling, football, and more. They are formulated to help keep your muscles working hard, and to sustain your endurance, during your sports and exercise.

Are Perple's products suitable for vegans and vegetarians?

Yes, Perple Endurance Mixes and Sports Drinks are vegan and vegetarian friendly and do not contain any animal-derived ingredients. For instance, many BCAA supplements on the market come from animal proteins such as meat, fish, poultry, eggs and milk. Perple’s BCAAs come from plant-based foods.

Are there any side effects associated with Perple's products?

Wrongly, we’ve all come to accept the price we pay for using traditional sports nutrition products. From feeling sick, and upset stomachs, to headaches and heart palpitations. But, with Perple, there’s no trade off. No painful side effects. Just the great tasting pleasure of enhanced performance. And, all of the ingredients in Perple products are free of the 14 major allergens. But, if you have any concerns beyond these,  or pre-existing medical conditions, we recommend that you consult with a healthcare professional.

Can I use Perple's products for everyday energy and hydration needs, or are they just for sports?

Our sports nutrition mixes and sports drinks have been designed for use in exercise and sports. Yet, you can use them if your nutrition regime has not been good throughout your day, and you are in need of energy and rehydration. However, we do recommend that if you consume Perple products without exercise, you do so in the context of a balanced and healthy diet.

Where should I store my Endurance Mix or Sports Drink?

Perple Endurance Mixes and Sports Drinks can be stored in your cupboards in the kitchen, without the need for putting them in the fridge, if they’re unopened. But, if you like them cold, go ahead and pop them in the fridge.
