HOW IT WORKS

One unit-dose packet contains:

Sodium 410mg; Potassium 120mg; Chloride 780mg

HIGH dose B-Complex with L-Methylfolate and Vitamin-C 750mg

Dextrose: 3.7 grams

Flavor: Unsweetened Lemon-Lime

One packet reconstituted in 250 - 500 mL of water yields 17.8 mEq of sodium and only 18 mMol of dextrose (410 mg sodium / 3.7 grams dextrose).

By having a 1:1 mMol ratio of sodium to glucose, we now have an osmolarity range of 120 to 240 mOsm/L. This formula has been found to significantly reduce the need for intravenous dehydration treatment.

A clinically-focused oral re-hydration solution can allow the body to absorb water very efficiently through the GI system and into the bloodstream. Thus providing the following benefits without the need for intravenous access:

Decreased
Heart Rate

Increase In

Thermal Cooling

Banana Bag Oral Solution is also a high-potency B-vitamin supplement.

A clinical tiral conducted at the University of New Mexico resulted in significant absorption of B-vitamins following a single dose. Most importantly, there was statistically significant absorption of the B6 and B12.

Banana Bag Oral Solution also restores the body back to normal hydration status.

The change in plasma osmolality following 2% dehydration and rehydration with water and the Banana Bag Oral Solution. * indicates a significant increase in plasma osmolality compared to baseline for both conditions. A indicates a significant decrease in plasma osmolality compared to post-dehydration.

Active Ingredients

(and why)

Thiamine (B1) 8,333% DV; Riboflavin (B2) 769% DV; Niacinamide (B3) 250% DV; METHYLcobalamin (B12) 10,417% DV; L-METHYLfolate (B9) 333% DV; Pyridoxine (B6) 882% DV; D-Biotin (B7) 1000% DV; Pantothenate (B5) 300% DV; Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin-C) 833% DV

High-dose B-vitamins dissolved in a watery electrolyte solution ensures a therapeutic amount is absorbed into the bloodstream.

Sodium Chloride (and a little potassium)

When the body is clinically dehydrated, absorption of water through the gut is increased significantly with a delicately balanced formula of electrolytes. Sodium being the most important here, and dependent on glucose (from dextrose) for entry into the bloodstream via the Na+/glucose cotransport system. Along with sodium, goes water. The sodium:dextrose ratio used in BBOS is this same proven formula that treats dehydration by mouth and decreases the need for IV therapy.

Organic Dextrose Monohydrate

Sugar! Yes, sugar in the form of dextrose (100% metabolized to glucose) works with sodium to activate the Na+/glucose cotransporter system. When properly exposed to a precise ratio of sodium & glucose, this transport system can significantly decrease the need for IV treatment of dehydration by allowing rapid absorption of sodium and water through the GI tract and into the bloodstream.
