Formulation Philosophy
Often times, those great moments on the trail happen because of what we do off the trail. In order to thrive in the experience, we must support and nurture our bodies and minds beyond the pursuit. We formulated our products steeped in this idea of holistic performance. Our formulas feature adaptogens, nootropics and restorative botanicals that work on body and mind to remove physical and mental barriers to flow, enhance the experience, optimize recovery and support the wellness of athletes.*
Our formulas harness the power of plant intelligence — where ancient wisdom is validated by science. The chemistry of the plants interacts with the physiology of the body, helping it perform its critical functions more effectively, an effect we call bioharmonization.* Using botanicals in the right form and right amount ensures results you can feel.
What is the Flow State?
The flow state is that expansive, blissed-out state we can hit while exercising. It is a peak experience where we transcend ourselves, time, and effort. The ordinary becomes extraordinary. We become totally immersed in the present filled with joy. Pain, hunger and fatigue subsides. Problems fade into bliss. We feel lighter, more focused, and alert. A sense of freedom and invincibility emerge, which helps us push limits and get to places we didn’t think possible. We are guided by wonder and inspiration, leading to bursts of creativity.
Whether it's on a single track, knee deep in powder, or navigating new trails— we all have our own way of finding flow. Flow states get us outside of ourselves, out of our heads, and into the moment. When we reach flow, performance goes through the roof.
By supporting body and mind, as well as our body’s natural rewards, Flume is a conduit to flow.*
Expertly Formulated
Each Flume formula was created by our co-founder, Dr. Taryn Forrelli, a naturopathic physician who has spent nearly two decades researching plant medicine, nutrition and traditional healing and applying that understanding to the development of innovative, science-backed supplements that honor the innate wisdom of the body and nature.
From exploring the canyons of the Arizona desert to carving lines through the soft powder of Utah’s mountains, Forrelli is no stranger to the wonders of flow. When she learned that these euphoric feelings are the body’s natural reward for movement, and that plants contain chemistries that can support the experience, the wheels were set in motion to formulate a line of botanical supplements to help outdoor athletes maintain optimal mind-body wellness and extract the most of their time adventuring outdoors.
