Black Skull Wins Innovation in Sustainability Category at Food Ingredients South America

SÃO PAULO — The post-workout supplement from Latin America with 19 grams of high biological value protein and 1 gram of Bovine Colostrum, Black Skull’s WHEY GRASSFED was the winner at Food Ingredientes South America (FiSA) in the Innovation in Sustainability category. This award recognizes products that benefit the planet, give back to society and contribute to health.

WHEY GRASSFED is sweetened with stevia and is free of gluten, sugar, lactose, hormones, allergens and GMOs. Additionally, it has Halal and Kosher certifications. Currently the product is available only in the United States but will soon also be on the Brazilian market.

Colostrum, which is composed of a combination of bioactives, supports immune, respiratory and intestinal health, said Black Skull. For athletes, regular consumption can enhance performance and muscle growth, according to the company. The raw material comes from pasture-raised dairy cows that are not fed synthetic feed or industrial medications, contributing to soil, water and animal health preservation.

"WHEY GRASS FED goes beyond sports nutrition,” said Marcelo Bella, CEO of Black Skull. “By purchasing the product, consumers will be contributing to the preservation of the Amazon and improving the quality of life for local riverbank communities, as Black Skull supports fruit producer cooperatives in the region by using natural Amazonian flavors in its products. We want to help preserve the Amazon and improve the quality of life for the region's inhabitants.”

WHEY GRASS FED is available in packages of 900 grams, with freeze-dried natural Amazonian flavors: Guaraná with Açaí and Chocolate with Cupuaçu.
