FAQ's

Have more questions? Let us know!

Performance Recovery is built on a simple but often overlooked principle: training alone doesn’t make you stronger, recovery does. The adaptations your body makes, like increased muscle mass, better endurance, and improved coordination, happen between training sessions, not during them. Simply put, if you’re not prioritizing recovery, you’re leaving results on the table.

Performance Recovery is best taken after strenuous exercise. Use it post-workout to help your body recover from training stress and support adaptation to your training.*

Many recovery supplements focus on a single pathway, like muscle repair, leaving gaps in overall recovery support. Performance Recovery delivers a multi-system approach to recovery to support hydration, muscle recovery, inflammation response, stress regulation, and sleep quality. With electrolytes, amino acids, and clinically supported botanicals, Recovery helps support muscle repair, reduce post-exercise soreness, and promote relaxation after training.

Performance Recovery is made with real fruit and a focused blend of amino acids, adaptogens, electrolytes, and clinically supported botanicals designed to support recovery after training. It contains no artificial flavors, sweeteners, or colors, and no added sugar. We also avoid synthetic emulsifiers, gums, anti-caking agents, and unnecessary fillers, keeping the formula simple and transparent. It’s third-party tested, gluten-free, and non-GMO, so you can feel confident about what you’re putting into your body while supporting post-workout recovery.*

Magnesium doesn’t typically make you drowsy, but it can help support muscle relaxation and remove barriers to falling asleep. It’s also an important mineral for energy production and may help reduce cramping after intense exercise. Because of this, it’s more important to take Performance Recovery after strenuous activity than to focus on a specific time of day.

Yes, we use real fruit for flavor and avoid synthetic emulsifiers, gums, anti-caking agents, artificial flavors, and unnecessary fillers, so you may notice some natural settling or clumping while mixing. That's normal.

Start with about 1 oz of warm water, then add your scoop of Recovery Drink. Use a frother or small whisk to break up the powder. Once it’s smooth, add the remaining water and ice, then shake or stir again. This method helps reduce natural settling and makes it easier to get a more consistent texture.

Yes, we third-party test our products and source from high-quality suppliers to meet our safety and quality standards.

Reviews

Boosting my recovery and love the taste

"I can tell a difference on my heavy workout days when I drink this afterward. Even my oura ring readiness score is higher the next morning than usual. No muscle cramps, etc. I think it tastes great and I love the clean ingredients."

— Michelle C. (5/5)

Golden Cherry Recovery

"This drink has helped me so much! I work out quite a lot. At least 5 to 6 days of lifting weights and running. My body was feeling sore and depleted so I tried this recovery drink to help me through it. I have seen an amazing difference. My soreness is minimized drastically and I feel hydrated and have more energy to keep going. I work out very early in the morning and take a serving immediately after exercise. The flavor tastes more like pineapple to me than it does cherry but that is perfectly fine with me."

— Hannah S. (5/5)

Tasty feel good recovery.

"Mixes terribly but tastes good and I FEEL like recovery is better but could be in my head. Either way I’ll still buy it!"

— Kayla S. (5/5)

Delicious and effective!

"This has become a nighttime ritual for me, especially on days where I really push my workouts! It helps me naturally fall asleep without melatonin and I've noticed my pain from inflammation has decreased. My muscles definitely feel more recovered the next day. YOU HAVE TO MIX IT WITH HOT WATER THOUGH! I've seen some complaints about it not mixing right and I think the hot water is key. I mix it with about 1/3 cp of hot water then fill it with ice and cold water, although I kinda like this flavor warm too. It's yummy and effective, I'll definitely be reordering this one!"

— Sarah H. (5/5)

Okay.

"This is an okay product. I was really excited about it but the flavor wasn’t all that great and I wasn’t all impressed by the results. Mediocre at best."

— Ami C. (3/5)

Muscle recovery

"I love the flavor, it does work as far as I’m not as sore in the morning, but 2hrs after drinking it, my gut is mad, I’ve even tried half the amount, still anger, then I seen it had Magnesium Citrate, which makes your bowels move, I already take a magnesium three different types at bedtime, to me would I rather be sore for a few days or have loose bowels & hurting for 6hrs."

— CJ (3/5)

Hot yoga recovery

"Tastes great and helps me sleep. Nice recovery after night hot yoga."

— Andrea M. (5/5)

I needed this in my life

"I waited to write a review til I knew for certain it was more than just a delicious drink. I killed myself in the gym yesterday and then drank this on the ride home. I am not hurting badly today. In fact I barely feel any discomfort at all. This drink is going to allow me to reach my goals in the gym with less pain and discomfort and faster muscle recovery (paired with the right foods and Lemon Birthday Cake protein shakes). Thank you Just Ingredients. I love everything about you."

Q&A

Can children drink the recovery drink after sports?
While our products are made with real ingredients we always encourage you to reach out to their care provider to make sure it's a good fit for them.
Is this pregnancy safe?

What is the difference between taking the creatine max and recovery after a workout? Could they be mixed??
Creatine Max and Recovery serve different purposes and can absolutely be taken together. Creatine Max supports strength, power, and energy production, while Recovery is formulated to help replenish nutrients, support muscle repair, and promote recovery after exercise. They complement each other well as part of a post-workout routine.
