The Myo Bicarb System


Sodium bicarbonate is one of the most effective performance supplements. It’s also notorious for causing stomach problems. Our hydrogel and coated mini-beadlets are built to keep bicarb out of your stomach.

The
Problem

When standard sodium bicarbonate mixes with stomach acid, a rapid chemical reaction occurs. This neutralization creates carbon dioxide gas, leading to bloating, belching, cramps, and diarrhea.

For decades, athletes have had to choose between the performance benefits of bicarb and the risk of race-ruining gastrointestinal distress. Plain powders and capsules release bicarb straight into the stomach — exactly where the problem starts.

How it works

01. MIX

Shake the gel sachet with 200 mL of water. In 3–5 minutes it sets into a smooth, carb-rich hydrogel. Stir in the bicarb mini-beadlets and eat it straight away — no chewing.

02. STOMACH

Each mini-beadlets is sealed in a food-grade lipid coat that doesn’t dissolve in water or stomach acid. The bicarb is designed to stay locked inside — so it doesn’t react with acid and create gas.

03. INTESTINE

In the small intestine, your natural digestive enzymes break down the coat and release the sodium bicarbonate where it’s absorbed. Take it 90–120 minutes before your race or session.

Only What's Needed

Two Parts. One System.

A fast-setting hydrogel to fuel you, and precision-coated mini-beadlets to deliver bicarb past the stomach. Nothing extra.
