FAQ
What is KA-EX® and how does it work?
Cortisol is the body’s primary stress hormone. It rises in response to physical or emotional stress to help you adapt—but when cortisol stays elevated for too long, it can impair recovery, disrupt sleep, and diminish overall performance.
After intense training, the body enters a prolonged stress state: inflammation, increased acidity, and micro-tears in muscle tissue trigger an extended cortisol response that can last 48 to 72 hours. This often results in low energy, stagnated progress, and—in more severe cases—declining muscular performance.
KA‑EX® is designed to support cortisol normalisation through multiple pathways:
Together, these mechanisms help your body return to balance faster—reducing the negative impact of cortisol and unlocking better recovery, sleep, and training results.
In three clinical studies, KA-EX was shown to accelerate cortisol normalization by 36%, improve REM sleep by 16%, and enhance heart rate variability (HRV) by 10%— resulting in more energy (9%) and an 8% mood improvement.
When and how should I take KA-EX®?
KA‑EX® is designed to be taken after physical exercise or activity to support recovery. Since recovery processes last over 48 hours, many athletes also take it on rest days.
KA‑EX® can also be taken on demanding workdays, during periods of mental fatigue, or whenever your body is under stress — whether physical or psychological.
The recommended serving is one KA‑EX® per day, available in either sachet or bottle format. Mix one sachet with 500 ml (approx. 17 oz) of cold water, shake well until fully dissolved, and drink chilled.
Who can take KA-EX®?
KA‑EX® is recommended for individuals aged 13 and older. Younger individuals have different nutritional needs, and supplementation should only be done under professional guidance.
Can diabetics take KA-EX®?
KA‑EX®contains6 g of glucose and 12 g of fructose per serving —similar tothe sugar content of an average apple. Diabetics should account forthis in theirinsulin or dietary management and consult with a healthcare professional if unsure.
Can pregnant or breastfeeding women take KA-EX®?
There are no known concerns, but KA‑EX®containsseveral vitamins (e.g.folate, B12, C) that might already be supplemented elsewhere.It’simportant not to exceed the recommended daily intake. Please consult a doctor before using during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Does KA-EX® have any side effects?
KA‑EX® isgenerally welltolerated, and no side effects have been reported after millions of servings sold in Switzerland. People with sensitivities to certain vitamins or minerals should still assess individual tolerance. If you have known intolerances or medical conditions, we recommend consulting a healthcare professional beforeuse.
Does KA-EX® contain caffeine or stimulants?
No. KA‑EX® is 100% free from stimulants like caffeine or taurine. Instead, itcontainsnatural ingredients that support recovery, sleep, and overall well-being without disrupting sleep cycles.
Sugar is known to lead to a cortisolspike,why does KA-EX®containsugar?
It’s true that sugar can cause a short-term cortisol spike lasting 30 to 60 minutes. However, in the context of post-exercise recovery, this effect is largely irrelevant.
Intense physical activity elevates cortisol levels for 48 to 72 hours due to muscle damage, inflammation, and systemic stress. In comparison, the brief spike caused by sugar is minimal and does not contribute to any meaningful additional cortisol load.
KA‑EX® contains only 18g of sugar—the same amount and type found in a regular apple (12g fructose, 6g glucose)—and is classified as “low in sugar.” Yet this small amount plays a critical role in the product’s effectiveness by enabling key recovery processes:
Research shows that even when the body is adequately supplied with protein and other nutrients, the absence of sugar post-exercise can reduce recovery efficacy by up to 34%. In fact, after high-intensity training, it is often recommended to consume 60g of carbohydrates to support full recovery.
Is KA-EX® vegan, gluten-free, and lactose-free?
Yes — KA‑EX® is 100% vegan, gluten-free, and lactose-free.
How is KA-EX® different from a regular sports drink or electrolyte mix?
Most sports drinks and electrolyte mixes are designed with a single goal in mind: rehydration. They typically contain water, sodium, potassium, and simple carbohydrates to replace what is lost through sweat during exercise. While these are important, they address only one dimension of what your body needs after intense physical activity.
KA‑EX® is clinically developed and patented in Switzerland as a full-spectrum recovery formula, targeting multiple recovery pathways simultaneously:
Are the powder sachets and push-cap bottle the same formula?
Yes — both formatscontainthe same functional ingredients in the same dosage. The only difference is in the separation of certain components for stability in the bottle.
Is KA-EX® clinically tested?
In three clinical studies, KA-EX was shown to accelerate cortisol normalization by 36%, improve REM sleep by 16%, and enhance heart rate variability (HRV) by 10%—resulting in more energy (9%) and an 8% improvement in mood.
