Growing brand Ember Labz carries its formulation ability into hydration with Ascend

Ember Labz Ascend

The young supplement company Ember Labz currently competes in the industry with a lone innovation, the stimulant-backed and well-rounded pre-workout Awaken Pre. Despite Ember being somewhat new to the space, it shows plenty of experience in the formulation of its pre-workout, including 8g of straight citrulline, 4g of beta-alanine, 2g of tyrosine, the powerhouse Senactiv for performance, and a combined 350mg of caffeine from fast and slow sources.

Ember Labz is now expanding into another sports nutrition category, and instead of going with protein powder, creatine, or even a second stackable pre-workout, it is tackling the hydration space with Ascend. The second innovation from the brand continues that formulation ability, squeezing in 1.6g of combined electrolytes to drive hydration and performance, breaking down into a gram of sodium, 400mg of potassium, and 100mg each of magnesium and calcium.

For a bit of extra effectiveness, Ember Labz has added taurine to Ascend for more performance and endurance support at 2g a serving, plus some B vitamins and the premium and proven absorption enhancer AstraGin at 50mg. The hydration specialist will be hitting the market in the very near future with 30 servings per tub, enough for six weeks when training a common five days a week, and it’ll debut in a tangy, citrus-based flavor called Lightning Lime.
