Why this certification matters
- Informed Sport
- Informed Sport certification is especially relevant for athletes in tested sports because products are batch-tested for substances prohibited in sport.
Frequently asked questions
- Is Gut Health Soda a drink or a capsule?
- It is a ready-to-drink, lightly sparkling soda in a can — not a probiotic capsule. VITAL makes it in the UK with live cultures and plant fibre built into the drink.
- What is in it?
- Each can contains billions of live cultures plus added plant fibre, with vitamins C and D, and it is zero-sugar with no artificial sweeteners. It is vegan and gluten-free.
- Why does a soft drink carry a sports certification?
- Functional drinks are not commonly batch-tested. VITAL's Informed Sport certification screens each batch against the WADA banned-substances list, which matters for tested athletes.
- How does it compare to VITAL's Sparkling Vitamin Water?
- Gut Health Soda is focused on live cultures and fibre for gut health; the Sparkling Vitamin Water is a vitamin-led drink. Both are canned, zero-sugar and Informed Sport certified.
