Osmo’s scientifically based formulation is proven to deliver the hydration our athletes need to stay healthy and win races.” Dr. Stacy Sims, Chief Research Officer and Co-Founder of Osmo Nutrition comments, "We are so happy to be working with USA Cycling. Since 2008, I have been working with Jim Miller and USA Cycling athletes by applying sport and nutrition science testing to achieve top end performance gains. It has been exciting to watch the positive impact that science and Osmo Nutrition has on the athletes, allowing them to reach their performance potential. We look forward to continued growth and success together.” Osmo Nutrition has become the official hydration sponsor to USA Cycling and Team USA Cycling. (photo by Casey B.
