Many hydration drinks focus on WHAT goes in. VINIA Blood Flow Hydration™ goes one step further and improves HOW electrolytes and nutrients get delivered. Containing the finest sources of natural electrolytes, the solution is formulated with premium sodium from sea salt, potassium from coconut water, and magnesium from marine ocean beds. This electrolyte solution is powered by VINIA's unique red grape polyphenol complex (23mg), including rapid absorption Piceid Resveratrol (6mg), which has been clinically shown to significantly increase arterial dilation, improving blood flow**. Better blood flow ensures more efficient transportation of electrolytes and fluids to our body's organs, muscles, and cells, right where they're needed most.

A New Era in Blood Flow-Driven Hydration Science

Dr Suzanne Steinbaum MD, Preventive Cardiologist and Best Selling Author of the "The Heart Health Book: Every Women's Guide to a Heart-Healthy Life", commented "VINIA's Blood Flow Hydration is well named. It is a true 2-in-1 solution because it addresses the problems that are common issues for many people. First, VINIA Blood Flow Hydration increases the dilation of arteries, which improves circulation, and better blood flow is essential to oxygen and nutrient delivery. Second, VINIA Blood Flow Hydration also addresses dehydration, a critical issue for many people, by adding high quality, naturally sourced electrolytes. The combination of water, electrolytes, and VINIA red grape powder's proven ability to improve blood flow with increased dilation enables more efficient delivery of critical fluids and electrolytes to our body's organs, tissues, and cells. That's why I will be recommending VINIA Blood Flow Hydration to my friends and patients."

"My personal experience in leading major brands in the US hydration market while at the Coca-Cola Company have given me the required insights on what is required to drive meaningful differentiation in this multi-billion dollar growing category. I am confident that our strategy of Superior Science, Superior Efficacy and Superior Taste will allow our VINIA Blood Flow Hydration solution to disrupt this market and be a meaningful contributor to driving continued high double-digit revenue growth for the Company," commented Ilan Sobel, CEO of BioHarvest Sciences, adding "No other offering in this rapidly expanding market leverages the power of VINIA's Piceid Resveratrol to address the importance of blood flow in order to drive more effective hydration. Combining the unique, science-based proposition of increased blood flow with a powerful blend of electrolytes derived from nature, we now have 6 great tasting flavors developed by a world class beverage formulator, which gives me the confidence that we can deliver a superior, and Informed Sport Certified, consumer proposition to the market.
