New Supplement Alert! Is Bicarb Worth Investing in?

New Supplement Alert! Is Bicarb Worth Investing in?

Bicarbonate supplementation is by no means a new thing. But there is a new supplement on the block from one of the big sports nutrition companies.

So what on earth is it? And should you be *adding to cart*.

In this episode I explain:

  • What is sodium bicarbonate?
  • Why would we want to use it to enhance exercise performance?
  • What sort of sporting situations would it be useful for?
  • Is it worth trialling as an age-group triathlete?

Tune in to find out!
