We climbed McKinley twice last year, once in May and once in June. By the 2nd time, we were already hooked on Acli-Mate so we made a couple of pix of us with it for you to see. Both pix with Acli-Mate were taken at Windy Corner, about 13,500 feet)... Artur and Christine |

Just wanted to let you know that I started using Acli-Mate a few days before heading off on an Eastern plains antelope hunt, even though I live at a higher elevation than what I would be hunting. Alci-mate gave me a "boost" in my energy level, without making me feel jittery or hyped up on caffeine. Fact is, I liked it so much that I took packages with me to the hunting camp and gave it to the "real flat landers" that had come up to 6,000 feet to chase antelope and deer. Thanks for putting out a product that does what its advertised to do!

I live in Colorado above 6,000 feet, so I am already acclimated to the altitude. However, everyone who lives at altitude knows that you are still just as susceptible to high-altitude dehydration as the next person. I recently climbed over 2,000 feet in elevation in the scorching sun on an archery elk hunt. Despite my attempt to drink a lot of water, I got severely dehydrated and was left with a nasty headache that persisted straight through the next day. The following morning, with my headache still there, I drank the Acli-Mate before heading out on my next hunt. To my delight my headache soon went away. I went on to climb the mountain ridge and have another great day of hunting. I really like the taste of Acli-Mate and I appreciate that it’s sweetened with Stevia and made with all natural ingredients. It has a lighter taste than other sports drinks on the market. I’ll continue to use Acli-Mate before and after I’m hunting, skiing, biking or running. |

Scott Drum PhD~ Associate Professor of Exersice and Sport Science ~ Director High Altitude Perfomance Lab at Western State College, Gunnison, CO. Taste – "Smooth taste and flavorful, not overbearing" Sugar content – "Does not taste too sugary" Electrolytes – "Ran a 24-miler (over 3-hrs) recently with 24-ounces of Acli-Mate (one hand-held bottle), a few gels, and felt great; no problem with muscle/leg cramping and just sipping the beverage from the bottle (while running) every 10-20 minutes seemed to keep me satiated and hydrated." Energy – "Good, solid energy boost; so far I’ve felt strong while running with the beverage and even better when using it as a recovery drink along with ample water intake." Recovery – "Excellent recovery; legs and overall energy have rebounded quickly with the use of Acli-Mate post long training runs in addition to focused water intake for optimal re-hydration." "Excellent overall product with a blend of important electrolytes, other vitamins and minerals, and acclimation to altitude substances to boot! I am thoroughly enjoying this product!"

Acli-Mate rules! I was traveling to the Leadville 100 mtb race from here in New Jersey (altitude 36ft). I was very concerned about the effect the altitude was going to have on my race, as I have not fared well when I've traveled into the Rockies before this. I was speaking with Rick Garcia at Tuneup Bikes in Gunnison a couple weeks prior to the race, and he highly recommended your product (he spoke highly of your company, and directed me to buy from your website instead of buying from his bike shop, which I thought said a lot). I started on the Citrus flavor 3x a day, beginning 3 days before my travel (Thursday, race on Saturday). I continued to use it up till race morning. I am now the proud owner of a silver finisher's belt buckle- 11hrs6min on a singlespeed- without any altitude problems! I consider your product part of my success, and I plan on continuing it's use back here in Jersey. Thanks very much.

I've won many races/series and have a slew of results, but not quite sure what all you want. When I think back, it all blends together in my memory. I have also coached all levels for almost 15 years too. I have my BS degree from CU 1987, in Exercise Physiology and have been practicing massage for 15 years. "Acli-mate gives back to your body what it deserves in nutrition, so recovery is enhanced. Acli-mate is a must for all who seek the mountains. Plus it tastes great in hot or cold weather." After a cool-rainy day of setting up our basecamp up at 10,000ft, high in the W.Elk Mtns., we served Acli-mate hot like a tea. It was great! WE warmed up and gained the benefits of Aclimate.

Aclimate truly helped our daughter minimize her severe altitude sickness. We are from Florida so going from sea level to Crested Butte at roughly 9500 feet, is always tough. We keep an oxygen condenser unit in our Colorado home so our daughter doesn't feel so bad. After starting the Aclimate three days prior to our trip and the first few days of being at a high altitude, she was fine. No oxygen, no getting sick. Everything was great. I highly recommend Aclimate for the low-landers heading "up"!!! Joy Ashlock |
