BOA Endure Usage Tips
A serving is either a 2-second, continuous blast, or two 1-second blasts.
Fully coat the inside of your mouth with a serving (approximately a 2-second blast), as needed, then swallow.
BOA has developed a proprietary way (patented OraBlast technology) to use oxygen as the transportation engine to rapidly deliver nutrients. BOA ENDURE uses a novel system whereby oxygen is the compressed air that forces ENDURE's unique sodium mixture through a very small passageway, a valve, so that the molecules are atomized and then powerfully blasted into the mouth, which enhances absorption.
It is important to note that every athlete’s physiology is different. BOA’s ENDURE is rapidly absorbed by the body. Based on a significant amount of peer-reviewed studies and published scientific evidence, electrolytes can be absorbed rapidly by the human body in ways very similar to BOA’s OraBlast technology. According to these studies, nutrients and minerals can be absorbed up to ten times faster than through normal gastrointestinal absorption.
Because ENDURE is a rapid sodium replacement product, you can use it in many ways. Athletes lose sodium rapidly during training and competition, so most sports nutritionists recommend taking on more sodium before, during, and after sustained activities. Sodium loss varies among athletes, but some can lose as much as 5,000mg in an hour. One, 2-second serving of ENDURE rapidly delivers 150mg of sodium. Given the convenience of the BOA blast, you can use it as often as you need to keep your sodium levels from dropping too much and to help delay the onset of fatigue. Sodium is critical to hydration so you want to avoid getting too low.
According to many studies and the published opinions of sports nutritionists and sports doctors, the benefits of sodium can include: improved hydration; increased endurance; increased cardiac output; reduced blood volume drop; increased power output, and decreased core body temperature.
No matter the sport, no matter the level, all athletes can use BOA Endure while they’re fully exerting and sweating.
Keep out of the reach of children. Athletes under the age of 18 years old should have adult supervision while using BOA Endure.
Every athlete needs a hydration strategy and should be staying hydrated by whatever their choice fluid is. BOA ENDURE is designed to make your fluid strategy work better by rapidly replacing sodium levels. Sodium is a critical nutrient in the hydration equation and athletes can lose large amounts of sodium quickly. Without sodium, an athlete can't maximize hydration and therefore can't maximize performance.
The recommendation is a 2-second blast/serving. Take as needed based on your own hydration, nutritional and training regiments and individual physiology.
As athletes fully exert themselves in training and competitions, they lose sodium. Endure is designed to close this sodium gap rapidly. While preparing for your next event, whether it’s a marathon, triathlon or other event, incorporate BOA into your regular regimen, to get you back into the game fast on race day.

BOA Canister Information
A build up of a little bit of sodium is normal. Simply run warm water over the valve for 10-15 seconds and wipe off. You'll be good to go.
If your can was spraying previously, run under warm water for 15-30 seconds.
If your can doesn't spray when you receive it, try leaving your can in sunshine for 15-20 minutes and then try spraying. If your can still doesn't spray, please contact us at contact@boablast.com and we will be happy to send you a replacement.
No problem with freezing. Simply bring your can inside and let it adjust to the room temperature for 24 hours and then you're good to go.

Yes, we use Sucralose as the sweetener to mask the harsh, metallic taste of sodium. However, the percentage of Sucralose in our product is less than one-quarter of one percent of the total product. It is not possible to use a large sugar molecule (cane sugar, for example) in an oral aerosol because we need to atomize all of the molecules into a composition that is easy for you to absorb.
