Go Higher – Feel Better.
Formulated by Dr. Roanne Rouse Houck, N.D, Acli-Mate was born out of her desire to provide relief to the many travelers who suffer from Altitude Sickness. Acli-Mate’s unique blend of ingredients addresses the symptoms of altitude sickness:
Electrolytes to support hydration, as the alpine environment is frequently much dryer than other climates, and because the added stress that altitude places on the human body quickly causes dehydration.
Vitamins B6 and B12 to assist with energy and combat headaches. Persons experiencing altitude sickness often experience headaches and a lack of energy.
Sodium, potassium and magnesium to minimize muscle cramps.
Adaptogenic Herbs – Ginko Biloba, Schizandara and Rhodiola help the body adapt to multiple stressors, including those cause by altitude.
“I was hitting dead ends in resolving my health challenges and was even starting to wonder if the vitality I remembered was even real when I started working with Roanne. As a ND, she helped me understand my larger health picture and empowered me with critical information to return to the vitality I recalled.
In my experience, the knowledge and passion she brings forward with genuine care is the best health investment I have ever made. And it continues to benefit me daily! Thank you Roanne!!”
