Whether you're a runner, a yogi, or just striving to stay active and energized, maintaining gut health is essential to long-term wellness and performance. One powerful yet gentle way to support your body? Add R’s KOSO, a traditional Japanese fermented drink, to your daily routine.
Unlike typical koso drink (aka: enzyme drinks) or probiotic supplements, R’s KOSO is crafted through the slow fermentation of over 100 raw fruits, vegetables, seaweeds, and herbs. Naturally rich in prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, and polyphenols that help improve gut health, support digestion, and enhance overall vitality.
Improve Gut Health for Better Nutrient Absorption
An active body needs efficient digestion to absorb key nutrients for energy, recovery, and muscle repair. But if your gut microbiome is off-balance, even the cleanest diet might not be enough.
R’s KOSO contains postbiotics, the beneficial byproducts of fermentation that nourish your gut lining, balance intestinal bacteria, and support digestive function.
Postbiotics have been shown to improve gut health and reduce inflammation.
Natural Energy from the Gut
Your gut microbiome helps convert prebiotics, types of fiber that feed your friendly gut bacteria, into short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which play a role in regulating energy metabolism. Fermented foods like R’s KOSO help maintain this balance, supporting stable energy levels without relying on caffeine or sugar.
SCFAs like butyrate also support GLP-1 secretion, which may enhance metabolism and satiety.
3. Reduce Bloating and Inflammation
Active lifestyles, especially high-protein diets or irregular eating habits, can lead to bloating and digestive discomfort. The byproducts of fermentation in R’s KOSO support smoother digestion and reduce inflammation that can impact recovery and energy.
R’s KOSO is free from artificial sweeteners, making it a clean option to improve gut health while satisfying your taste buds.
4. A Gut-Friendly Sweetener for Your Smoothies & Snacks
Instead of adding honey or refined sugar, just a spoonful of R’s KOSO can sweeten your morning coffee, tea, smoothie, yogurt bowl, or oatmeal while promoting gut health. It’s a functional way to enhance flavor and support your wellness goals.
5. Detox Support & Post-Workout Recovery
The body naturally detoxifies through the liver and digestive system, especially after workouts when oxidative stress is high. R’s KOSO contains a range of fermented plants that support this process gently by encouraging regularity and gut motility.
