BIOGENA SPORTS - Essentials
Well supplied for full potential
When the body reaches its (performance) limits, it converts carbohydrates, fats, proteins and also micronutrients from the diet into energy. Regular training can increase the metabolic rate and therefore the need for certain nutrients. Anyone who engages in sport should therefore pay attention to their micronutrient levels - especially in competitive sport, but also in ambitious recreational sport. In addition to a varied and balanced diet, a well thought-out and high-quality dietary supplement is a useful training companion that helps to cover the increased requirements caused by physical activity.
BIOGENA SPORTS Essentials is the basic supply for athletically active people in every performance phase, regardless of whether it is training or competition time. The formula developed by the BIOGENA science team especially for athletes with 20 selected micronutrients - including taurine and ubiquinol (activated form of coenzyme Q10) - provides the optimum combination of high-quality vitamins, minerals and trace elements for more energy, focus and muscle strength.

FAQ
At Biogena, “pure substance principle” means that we do not use technological additives which are used for the fully automated manufacturing of tablets, capsules and pills (e.g. anticaking or release agents and so forth) or additives that are used for optical reasons or for enhancing the taste of the products (artificial aroma, colouring agents, coatings etc.). Due to a semi-automatic manufacturing process, we can avoid these substances that often have a higher proportion in customary products than the actual active ingredients. In the case of nutritional supplements, additives have to be indicated in the list of ingredients. Here, the patient or customer can get useful information. Concerning the single ingredients, we also care for our raw materials to be free of carrier substances. In cases where this is not possible, we use natural food components such as maltodextrin, cellulose powder or calcium carbonate. The majority of our ingredients is produced exclusively for us – free of carrier substances (e.g. our enzymes our probiotics: other manufacturers often use lactose as a carrier – the product batches produced for us are explicitly without carriers).
BIOGENA preparations are carefully manufactured in our own production facility, BIOGENA Good Health World (Salzburg, Austria), to a unique manufacturing standard. We are certified according to ISO 22,000:2018 and GMP - Good Manufacturing Practice and have organic, halal and kosher certification. The quality-tested raw materials come from premium brand raw material manufacturers - sourced directly from the world market leaders.
