Understanding our ingredients:

  • Reverse osmosis is a water treatment process using pressure to force water molecules through a semipermeable membrane to remove contaminants. 
  • Sodium bicarbonate is a baking soda and antacid medicinal ingredient. 
  • Citric acid helps smooth your skin as a part of our pain relief and recovery balms. 
  • Glycerin helps retain moisture and is beneficial for our topical muscle creams and sunscreens. 
  • Polyacrylate crosspolymer-6 is a powder ingredient for stabilization of water-based emulsions to create a gel texture and a non-sticky finish, which is key for our sports creams in outdoor athletics. 
  • Isopropyl palmitate is another hydration enhancer and is derived from animal and plant sources. 
  • Vitamin D boosts calcium absorption in the gut and enables normal bone mineralization to prevent cramps and spasms.
  • Ethylhexyl palmitate helps active ingredients penetrate skin more easily and is an alternative to silicone. 
  • Isopropyl Alcohol is a vehicle to drive ingredients deeper into the skin and dissolve ingredients that aren't water-soluble.
  • Derived naturally from peppermint, menthol provides a cooling, refreshing sensation upon contact with your skin and is a key ingredient in our line of mineral sun barriers and endurance/recovery lotions. 
  • Magnesium sulfate is absorbed into the skin to serve as an anti-inflammatory protectant. 
  • Benzyl alcohol is a preservative with antibacterial and antifungal properties. 
  • Sorbic Acid eliminates microorganisms to prevent their multiplication and prevent spoilage.

Each ingredient was handpicked to maximize the effectiveness of our Koru Recovery Lotion to buffer lactic acid build up in muscles. We recommend our product over any menthol cream, muscle rub cream or vitamin D lotion on the market today.

Vitamin D | Benefits

The human body is made up of cells, and cells require energy to function. One of the primary ways the body generates energy is through the process of metabolism, the breakdown of food into energy. Vitamin D is involved in the body’s ability to use sunlight to create vitamin D, a critical nutrient for strong bones and healthy muscles and joints. Deficiency in vitamin D can result in a number of adverse health effects, including weakened bones, muscle pain, fatigue, and even depression and anxiety.

Athletes often have low levels of Vitamin D, which can result in decreased recovery and increased risk of injury. Our vitamin D lotion helps athletes achieve optimal levels of Vitamin D, which can help improve their recovery and performance. Our vitamin D lotion is specially formulated to provide pain relief and optimize the absorption of other key ingredients, such as calcium and magnesium, to help athletes achieve their goals. Our vitamin D lotion is safe to use long-term and can be used by athletes of all levels.


While many athletes take multivitamins to ensure their diets are providing the nutrients they need to perform, the body needs more than just food to recover and build muscle. The human body is made up of cells, and cells require energy to function. One of the primary ways the body generates energy is through the process of metabolism, the breakdown of food into energy. It is important for athletes to ensure they are supplementing with the right nutrients, including minerals, to help them recover and build muscle.


In a study published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine,supplementation with 10,000 IU of vitamin Dper day for six weeks had a positive impact on recovery after intense training. Bodybuilders who supplemented with 10,000 IU of vitamin D per day experienced an increase in muscle strength and size, while athletes who supplemented with 5,000 IU of vitamin D per day experienced an increase in performance and training volume. Vitamin D helps build and repair muscle, while also helping to optimize the absorption of other key ingredients, such as calcium and magnesium, which help athletes achieve their goals. Our vitamin D lotion is formulated to help athletes achieve optimal levels of vitamin D, which can help improve their recovery and performance.


Vitamin D also has an impact on sleep. In a study published in the Journal of Sleep Research, participants who took a vitamin D supplement had better sleep quality and quantity than those who took a placebo. It is possible that vitamin D supplementation improves sleep quality by increasing levels of melatonin, a hormone that helps regulate sleep. Vitamin D also affects the circadian rhythm—the body’s internal clock—which may contribute to sleep. Deficiencies in Vitamin D can result in poor sleep.The recommended daily intake of Vitamin D for adults is 600 IU per day.
