Aspire Biopharma Holdings (NASDAQ:ASBP) has announced plans to launch a new single-dose pre-workout supplement in 2025, utilizing their patent-pending sublingual delivery technology. The company has partnered with Desert Stream Inc., a nutritional supplement manufacturer, for ingredient sourcing, lab studies, and quality control.
The innovative product will be available in a convenient sachet format with at least three flavors, designed for rapid absorption through sublingual delivery - a significant departure from traditional powder-water mix supplements. This launch targets the global pre-workout supplements market, valued at $19.90 billion in 2023 and projected to reach $29.77 billion by 2032, growing at a 4.58% CAGR.
The product aims to address timing issues with traditional caffeine-based pre-workout supplements, which typically require 30-minute lead time and go through digestive processing. Aspire's sublingual delivery method promises better user control over workout enhancement timing and delivery.

Testing conducted by Glatt Air Techniques validated analytical methods, ingredient purity, compatibility, stability, and flavor profiles. The company believes its sublingual delivery technology enables rapid absorption into the bloodstream, potentially offering quick intervention for heart attacks and strokes, along with effective pain management applications.
