The Difference

When you examine sports nutraceutical companies, one discovers that many were created by various caliber athletes who were lacking scientific training or expertise but were looking for product offerings that were “better” than what was available at the time. The result of this quest, a cobbling together of ingredients to create product offerings (often claiming to be “natural, organic or herbal”) purporting to deliver better athletic performance or other beneficial health attributes without much, or in many cases any, supporting scientific data or validation. Often, the purported claims are laughable or blatantly false and in some cases directly contradict their own product’s nutritional panels. Some product offerings contain ingredients that are potentially dangerous to your health and many more have ingredients that either offer no performance enhancing value or are found in such minute quantities that they will do little good when consumed. Every Cardiostrong product is scientifically researched and formulated utilizing safe and premium ingredients to deliver the highest quality and highest value to our consumers.

Cardiostrong is the brainchild of Anant Kamath, Founder and CEO. Anant is an avid tennis player and grew up being passionate about sports. He created the Cardiostrong brand with one goal in mind: To help athletes succeed! How you ask? By utilizing the most current scientific research to deliver the best sports nutraceutical products on the market, bar none. Anant has extensive expertise in biology, biochemistry, immunology and human physiology with undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Iowa and Johns Hopkins University, respectively. For the last ten years, Anant has led one of the largest stem cell research companies in the United States by serving as its Chief Operating Officer. He possesses more than 25 years of scientific research expertise both in a laboratory and clinical setting. Anant saw that the current sports drink and supplements market was filled with “me too” companies producing and promoting products with little to no scientific validation and driven largely by market trends or worse, pure hype. In developing all of Cardiostrong’s product offerings, Anant set out to make sure that every ingredient selected for each product was of the highest quality, with safety and efficacy being paramount and performance enhancement being essential.

A significant amount of research and field testing has gone into every Cardiostrong product to make sure that the ingredients used are World and Anti Doping Agency (WADA) and International Olympic Committee (IOC) compliant, safe when used as directed on our packaging, bioavailable when consumed, easy on your stomach and great tasting. Whenever possible, Cardiostrong’s team of experts has provided information or links to research showing how selected ingredients help the human body and work synergistically to improve performance. Likewise, this site has been created to shed light on ingredients contained in our competitors’ products that have been shown to offer little or no performance benefits or worse, may be detrimental to your health when repeatedly consumed.

In moderation, sugar is essential for a healthy body. Millions of years ago our ancestors relied on sugar-rich fruit for survival. Not only did the nutrient give them enormous amounts of energy, but it also helped in the storage of fat — something which could be the difference between life and death during hard times. Those who didn’t consume enough sugar had neither the energy nor physical ca
