Our partner ingredient, CurraNZ®, is clinically studied to support muscle recovery.
What is it?
CurraNZ® is a water-soluble blackcurrant extract that can be used across a variety of applications and need-states, including sports supplements.
The research
- In an incremental intermittent high-intensity running protocol where participants exercised to exhaustion on a treadmill, 300mg CurraNZ® delivered an increase of 10.6% in the total running distance and a small increase in performance of 0.82% for a repeated 4-km cycling time trial was observed.
- Clinical findings from the University of Surrey’s study, where respondents were supplemented with 300mg (one capsule) of CurraNZ® blackcurrant extract, found:
- 3x faster recovery of muscle function over a 96-hour period. Blackcurrant participants regained muscle strength within 24 hours, while the placebo group recovered in 72 hours.
- 47% and 49% less muscle soreness at 24 and 48 hours, compared to the placebo.
- 84% less muscle tissue damage at 96 hours, compared to the placebo.
