About the Indian Sports and Wellness Company Steadfast Nutrition with an Interview of founder and Owner Aman Puri

I am really proud to call myself a Steadfast Nutrition sponsored athlete. Not only, that I am benefiting a lot from the high-quality nutrition supplements, but it is also great to be a part of the Steadfast Community since steadfast Nutrition is supporting a wide range of professional athletes all over India and even abroad.

Honestly, I am actually not a big fan of supplements. All my life I am trying and enjoying nutrition based on natural and wholesome products.

But once I reached a somewhat professional level in mountain biking, I noticed, that it was difficult for me to take enough minerals, have enough energy during races or recover properly after a hard training session, or a long racing day just through a healthy and balanced natural diet.

Still, I am eating as natural and fresh as possible. But I am grateful to have Steadfast Nutrition by my side to support me with high-quality supplements whenever it is needed.

Steadfast Nutrition was founded in 2017 by Aman Puri as a daughter Company of Steadfast MediShield Pvt. Ltd., which has been serving patients of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and organ transplantation since 2008.

I got to know Aman during my first MTB Himalaya participation in 2015. That time we both participated side by side in this 8 stages long endurance race. I wished I had known better about proper race nutrition at that point, as my suffering could have been definitely reduced.

 All the happier I am, that I do know now and have the products of Steadfast Nutrition always with me during races.

Aman and his team introduced their first 2 products in 2017 during MTB Shimla– a weekend version of the bigger MTB Himalaya Race.

Carbohydrate Supplement


Till today both, Carborance as well as Power Protein, are my most favorite nutrition supplements and play overall a big role in the endurance sports scene. While Carborance is the perfect energy blend for extreme endurance, Power Protein is a mix of slow and fast releasing proteins and helps a lot with recovery.

Steadfast Nutrition Power Protein

Since the launch of Steadfast Nutrition I have met Aman Puri less during races as a participant. Not that this is much of a surprise as he and his team have been developing and bringing out so many other beneficial supplement products, not only for all types of sports but also for all kinds of people through their wellness range.

I really recommend checking out the Website of Steadfast Nutrition to explore all their products a little more in-depth.

Interview with Aman Puri

There are already so many international sports nutrition brands out there. Can Steadfast Nutrition keep up with them regarding product quality? And what makes the Indian Brand Steadfast Nutrition maybe even better?

Aman: Yes, Steadfast Nutrition is already a global standard brand. All ingredients are sourced internationally keeping product quality into consideration. Steadfast is a researched-based organization and pioneer in renal care, we spend years of research before launching a product. All our products are up to the international standard and safe to use for a lifetime.

Tell us more about your packaging. It is quite unique, as every serving is packed individually. Especially in Europe consumers become more and more aware of environmental protection and try to reduce extra packaging. Please share your opinion.

Aman: Our concept of single-serve packs is a European concept. It is:

-hygienic,

-convenient (easy to carry, use and store)

-Cannot be duplicated because in India over 85% supplements are duplicated or adulterated

-eco-friendly (as we use materials which are recyclable as per govt. norms)

-measured dosage as all packs are single-use ensures accurate dosage

-water and moisture resistant

-protects the product’s freshness due to multi-layer advanced sachets

and plenty of more benefits of having single-serve sachets.

A. We are launching Peanut Butter with natural Honey in July. It will be in sports gel-type packaging. Meaning it can be used during long workouts, mainly by athletes doing ultra cycling or ultra running, or bike tours, and keto athletes. One serve of peanut butter can make the stomach full, along with goodness of good fats which will give energy along with some protein and carbohydrate content plus benefits of natural honey. It is also going to be a staple food for kids going to school, it is tasty and healthy and safe for all age groups.

As a competitive mountain biker, I have a personal interest in products such as energy bars and gels. Any plans?

Aman: As a mountain biker, I understand the need for energy gels and have been a key consumer of it. My personal expertise is on sports gels. We have been developing 8 sports gel variants from last 2 years, if we launch it today, we will become India’s best gel brand. However, we are committed to only excellence and would launch once we feel our gels are best in the world. A key focus of our gel range is:

1. Should not make the consumer feel puckish

2. Should not cause acidity or any gastro inconvenience

3. Current gels in the market are high on preservatives and chemicals; we want to launch something that is safe for organs like our other products.

4. Should offer enough energy with electrolytes and other essential nutrients and increase performance so our consumers can win medals consuming it.

Any plans to go internationally?

Aman: We already are. We ship globally. Have athletes from 6 different countries. We cater to elite athletes from different sports. However, the Indian market is bigger than any other market, thus our key focus will remain to expand our presence in India.

Thanks for the interesting talk!
