About Skratch Labs
Skratch Labs is a sports nutrition company that makes products to help athletes perform better. The company was founded in 2011 by Dr. Allen Lim, a sports scientist who wanted to create a better sports drink. Lim's goal was to make drinks that taste good, use real ingredients, and address problems for active people. Skratch Labs products are non-GMO, gluten free, kosher, and contain the ratio of electrolytes lost when sweating. They also contain less sugar and only use fruit for flavor.
Skratch Labs started as the first "secret drink mix" created by Dr. Lim for his Tour de France athletes. The company has since expanded to create a variety of sports nutrition products, including energy bars, chews, and rice cakes
Because their products has no preservatives, the shelf life of these products are much shorter than the typical sports nutrition.
Less sugar, uses fruits for flavouring, no preservatives, gluten free and vegan plant based? Sounds like many athletes with GI issues' dream come true.
