PARTNERSHIP WITH VELOFORTE
Lara Giusti, Veloforte founder, will be on the next episode of The Swimrun Show Podcast, with a focus on in-race nutrition and recovery.
Real Nutrition. Real Performance. Real Results.
Performance nutrition needed making right. Literally. That’s how Veloforte was born. For too long, going further, faster meant trading health for performance with unrecognisable ingredients and unwelcome side effects.
My experience in healthcare and nutrition told me that didn’t have to be the case. Nature has all the nutrition that performance craves. Dual-source carbs, complete proteins and absolutely zero side effects.
So we made it happen. We wrote recipes, not formulas. Used ingredients, not -extrose. Made nutrition, using nutrition.
8 years later I think we’ve proved our point. 30,000+ five-star reviews, 47 Great Taste Awards and more miles fuelled that I dare keep count of.
That’s nutrition made right.
That’s Nature. No nonsense.
