Marathons are Hard, Make it Easier With Osmo
Whether It's a Half Marathon, Full Marathon, or Ultramarathon, Osmo's Got You Covered
Running 13.1, 26.2, or 50 miles is no easy feat and staying well-hydrated is critical to help athletes cross the finish line. Hydration starts before the race even begins, hydrating two hours before the start of a run is crucial to start properly hydrated. Founded in 2013, Osmo Nutrition uses a science-driven approach to improve athletic performance through better hydration and recovery. Osmo can provide the hydration power that marathon runners need to fight fatigue and cramping so athletes can focus on maximizing their potential.
The idea of Osmo Active Hydration is to optimize fluid exchange for more effective hydration. Osmo products contain lower osmolality than that of the blood, enabling more efficient fluid uptake. For other drinks with higher osmolality, your body use extra water to to dilute the solution, so it can then be re-absorbed. This is a slower process, which can result in a "bloated" feeling and reduces the overall amount of fluid that can be absorbed.
Reasons Osmo is Great For Marathons
- Prevents cramping – nothing ruins a marathon like a painful cramp. Osmo Active has the right balance of magnesium, potassium, and sodium to prevent cramping.
- Fights fatigue – Osmo Active boosts blood circulation and plasma levels. This helps your body function more efficiently, increasing energy levels and delaying fatigue.
- Easy on the stomach – Using hydration with the right osmolality is so important that we’re named for it. The osmolality of Osmo Active is optimized for quick absorption and hydration, so it won’t sit in your stomach and cause bloating or distress.
- Hyper-hydrates – Drinking Osmo PreLoad the night before or the morning of a marathon will help you stay hydrated for longer throughout your run. PreLoad is especially helpful for hot days and can balance fluid lost through sweat.
- Faster recovery – After 26.2 miles, you deserve a good recovery—and your body needs it. Osmo Recovery is made to help sore, tired muscles recover and rebuild faster to help strengthen you and keep you feeling great.
