An excellent recovery drink for taking after a long run
By frowzy
This drink is specially formulated to provide your body with what it needs after a long hard workout (for example, after running a half-marathon). Drink it within 30 minutes after the run. After I started using this drink, I found I recovered more quickly after long runs. I've only tried the tropical punch flavor so far. I probably wouldn't drink it just for its flavor! But as a protein supplement, it's tastes very good.

BEST RECOVERY DRINK EVER!
By Heidi
I am an endurance athlete, I train 2+ hours 5 days a week and I have NEVER had a better recovery drink. I have never left a review for a product on Amazon, or any other website for that matter, but I felt the need to say how amazing this product is. I run, bike, hike, crossfit, weight train, etc. and this has been a very important part of my program. I am getting ready for a crossfit competition this Saturday, climbing Mt Whitney this month as well as training for a duathalon next month and Ultragen recovers my body fast and prevents me from feeling exhausted. The key is to drink it the minute your body stops moving. Yesterday I ran 6 miles and cycled 19.5 and drank it the second I finished and I felt amazing all day, never felt tired, worn out or sore. AMAZING product! I have only tried the Cappuccino thus far, but I am sure they are all good. It's a fine power so it mixes easily and completely with water. Really can't say enough great things about it....

Serious about recovery? Use this product.
By W. John Harrison
I am 62. I rode 3790 miles in January, averaging over 120 miles a day. I never missed drinking Ultragen within the 30 minute recovery window and I was always ready to go the next day. It is not cheap at $3 a serving or I expect coaches would be mixing it up and passing it out in the locker rooms to each player after every workout (I wish it had been around during my high school and college sports days). It mixes easily in one of those sports shakers with the little shaker ball. I am a fan of Hammer's Recoverite, too, but Ultragen is even better, maybe by ingredients twice the product. My daughter and son-in-law visited last summer and rode with me every day for a week. I mixed up Ultragen shakes for them as soon as we had our helmets and gloves off. There was only one day that they raced off without the Ultragen, and that one time made them both huge believers in the product. They really noticed the difference, so they are hooked on the product, too. Tropical Punch is my favorite flavor, they favor Cappuccino. All are tasty. Again, it's not cheap and you don't run into many sales on it, but it's a product well worth it.
