What Allergens are Present in Your Products?
ACCELERADE, ENDUROX R4, ACCEL GEL and 2ND SURGE each contain dairy products. Each of these products are manufactured in a facility that processes eggs, wheat, tree nuts, fish, crustaceans and shellfish products.
Are Your Products Wheat/Gluten Free?
All of our Gels (Accel Gels, 2nd Surge Gels) are Gluten Free. Our Powder products (Accelerade and Endurox R4) are Gluten Free, however, they are manufactured in a facilities that produces wheat. These facilities are GMP certified and flush all of their lines between productions, but if you are highly sensitive, it could be an issue. Endurox Excel is Gluten Free.
I have a corn allergy, are any of your products free of corn and corn derivatives?
No our products are not free of corn and corn derivatives. Maltodextrin, which is in Accelerade, Accel Gel, and Endurox R4, is made from corn. Our 2nd Surge and Endurox Excel do not contain Maltodextrin, so these products would be safe.
I am Lactose Intolerant; Can I Use Your Products?
The source of protein used in ACCLERADE, ACCEL GEL, 2ND SURGE and ENDUROX R4 is all natural whey protein from milk and this protein source does carry a residual amount of lactose in the finished product. The maximum lactose content is <2%, which may not be of concern to the vast majority of individuals who are lactose intolerant. However, if there is concern due to allergy or lactose intolerance we recommend consulting your physician.
I have Type II diabetes and am looking for a safe workout drink?
All of our products are safe for people who have type II diabetes as long as you are exercising within a short time of consuming the product. Exercise will result in a faster transport of carbohydrate (sugar) into the muscle.
Are Your Products Safe For Children Under The Age of 18?
Yes, all of our products are safe for children except 2nd Surge. The 100 mg of caffeine is too high for children under 18. For basic hydration needs we recommend Accelerade. For advanced recovery needs, we recommend Endurox R4. If your child weighs less than 120 lbs. we recommend reducing the serving of Endurox R4 to 1 scoop.
Do any of Your Products Have Caffeine?
One flavor of ACCEL GEL has caffeine:
Chocolate – 20mg of caffeine
Both 2nd Surge flavors have caffeine.
Chocolate – 100mg of caffeine, Double Expresso – 100mg of caffeine
I've Lost my Scoop; What are the Equivalents for a Serving?
ACCELERADE - each serving is approximately 2-3/4 tablespoons
ENDUROX R4 - each serving is approximately 7-3/4 tablespoons

ENDUROX R4: 3 Years

What is the Shelf Life of Products when Mixed with Water?
All of our powders are designed for immediate consumption. We do not provide a shelf life for the mixed/prepared product, because there are several factors which can affect how the product will taste over time. Our suggestion is to use the same judgment as you would with other powdered mixes such as iced teas, lemonades, etc.
Are Your Products Approved by WADA and for NCAA Use?
None of the banned substances identified by WADA and the NCAA are present in ACCELERADE, ACCEL GEL, 2nd SURGE, ENDUROX R4, and ENDUROX EXCEL. However, since WADA and the NCAA do not officially approve nutritional supplements, we recommend that you check with your athletic staff first before integrating our products into your training regimen.
