“Nutritional supplements cannot replace a well-balanced diet but are intended to supplement the diet and provide performance and health benefits, including improving nutrient deficiencies, providing nutrients when dietary sources are limited such as during travel, enhancing immune function, and aiding in recovery and body composition optimization,” stated Taylor Maggio, USA Boxing National Team Sports Dietitian. “Ultimately, the boxer is responsible for what they put in their body. Boxers at all levels deserve products that are science based, high quality, and contain the purest possible ingredients, like those formulated by Thorne, to keep them safely competing at their best.”
