BROOKFIELD, WI - (NewMediaWire) - June 2, 2015 - Trident Brands, Inc. (OTCQB: TDNT) announced today the release of Everlast Fuel, a drink mix designed to provide the nutrients, energy and hydration required to support a workout from warm up to cool down in one single drink. Everlast Fuel is loaded with B vitamins for focus and energy, electrolytes for rehydration and Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) for muscle recovery. It also contains resVida®, a patented, pure trans-resveratrol to fight free radicals and promote long-term health.

Sales of prepackaged ready-to-drink sports drinks have flattened, and research indicates that health and fitness-conscious people are now more interested in sports drinks with robust ingredients and well-defined benefits. Fitness enthusiasts have also expressed frustration that sports drinks catering to specific workout phases are available everywhere, but no company offers a drink that replenishes the body throughout the entire workout.

Trident Brands President Michael Browne says Everlast Fuel addresses that market gap. "People today are much better informed about specific ingredients and the role they play in nutrition. They've moved on from sweet colored water and are looking for a drink that contributes to their overall health." Browne mentioned that cost and clutter are other sources of irritation for people who work out regularly. "They don't like buying drinks that cost a fortune but aren't effective. And it's a hassle carrying a bunch of bulky plastic bottles around," Browne said. "Why do that when you can mix your own drink that costs less and delivers the results you want?"

Browne says Everlast Fuel is the end result of consultations with trainers and workout enthusiasts across the country. "Keeping it simple was a priority," Browne explained. "Other companies position different beverages for pre-workout, endurance and recovery. Why? They make a lot more money convincing people to buy several different products. And that's fine. But we think many people would rather buy one drink mix with 22 calories a serving that supports the entire workout."
