Mary Garner

Why Mary Loves Tecton

As a lifelong athlete, Mary is no stranger to working hard and pushing her body past its limits. She enjoys drinking Tecton before a workout to fuel her body and focus her mind. She believes in Tecton’s ability to help people push through a workout with maximum energy while protecting the brain through exogenous ketones.

As someone who has suffered from multiple concussions, Mary recognizes the importance of brain health and the potential of ketones to help mitigate concussion symptoms. She advises her clients who participate in contact sports to drink Tecton prior to competing.

Mary’s impressive performance at the Galaxy Competition was featured in Oxygen magazine.

I recommend Tecton not only for endurance but also for using ketones as brain fuel. It’s amazing because it’s a double benefit for athletes.

About

Mary

Sasha is a water drinker and only drinks beverages with zero added sugar. She enjoys how Tecton delivers a refreshing taste without a sugar rush and thinks it can benefit players before, during, and after a game.

While Sasha can see the benefits of drinking Tecton before or after a workout, she particularly enjoys having a can of Tecton in the afternoon. She finds it provides her with the mental clarity she needs to get through the day and be her best for her teams and her kids.

We only get one life. To be great consistently, it’s essential to find something great in every single day and to keep working to be the best.

Trent Green

Why Trent Green Values Tecton

Trent has seen and experienced a lot of concussions since he first started playing football. Concussions can have profoundly negative impact on people’s lives, that is why Trent is a passionate advocate for finding ways to mitigate risks of concussion.

Exogenous ketones, especially the ones found in Tecton, could be a game-changer. Trent hopes Tecton can help athletes of all ages and abilities lower the risks of pursuing their passion for football and other contact sports.

One thing that’s been missing in concussion recovery is a way to help people from the inside out. That’s what Tecton is all about, which I find really exciting.

About

Trent

Trent Green is a veteran quarterback who spent 15 seasons playing in the NFL. His accomplishments include earning a Super Bowl ring while playing for the St. Louis Rams, winning two pro bowls with the Kansas City Chiefs, and being one of only 13 NFL quarterbacks to complete a 99-yard pass. Currently, Trent works as a CBS sports analyst.

Trent suffered from multiple concussions during his NFL career, which has made him a strong advocate for concussion and brain health awareness. As the father of young athletes, Trent is also passionate about youth sports. He seeks to inform as many coaches, parents, and athletes as possible about concussion prevention, mitigation, and recovery.

At Tecton, we recognize that each and every one of us has extraordinary potential inside of us. Our Ambassadors are dedicated to helping people around the world tap into that extraordinary potential so they can Be Great in everything they do.

Porter May

Why Porter May Loves Tecton

Porter grew up drinking soda and has relied on caffeine to get through his day for years. But once he realized how much caffeine was negatively impacting him, he decided he needed a change. He enjoys how Tecton is non-carbonated, so it doesn’t feel like he’s drinking a soda. He also enjoys how Tecton makes him feel refreshed instead of jittery.

As a college student double majoring in Accounting and Public Policy, Porter needs to be able to stay focused for long periods of time as he studies and prepares for exams. Tecton is a refreshing, hydrating beverage that allows him to feel rejuvenated and focused throughout the day and into the evening.

I would encourage anyone who regularly drinks energy drinks to try Tecton instead. It helps me stay focused during class and while I’m studying without feeling jittery or having trouble sleeping.

About

Porter May

Porter May is a student at the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) studying public policy and accounting. He is a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity and plans to go to law school in the near future.

As a busy Honors College student, Porter knows that taking care of his physical and mental health is essential. He encourages his fellow students to drink Tecton to stay hydrated and focused throughout the day. Porter would like to encourage students to replace energy drinks with Tecton to experience mental and physical health benefits.

At Tecton, we recognize that each and every one of us has extraordinary potential inside of us. Our Ambassadors are dedicated to helping people around the world tap into that extraordinary potential so they can Be Great in everything they do.

Nancy Kindle

Why Nancy Kindle Loves Tecton

Nancy has been a coffee drinker for most of her life. She enjoys tasting coffee and the social aspect behind coffee as well as the stimulant that caffeine provides her body to wake up and stay awake. However, Nancy does not enjoy the negative side effects of coffee or the added sugar that comes from adding sweeteners and creamers.

Tecton provides the benefits Nancy enjoys from coffee and has helped her steer away from caffeinated beverages altogether. It wakes her whole body up and gives her clarity of mind. Because of this, Tecton has become part of Nancy’s daily routine. She enjoys the fact that she can have Tecton without adding more sugar or calories to start her day. She also enjoys drinking Tecton at work to help her get through long shifts.

Nancy has recently adopted an ayurvedic way of living by cutting out things that don’t serve her body well. This ancient form of living ensures Nancy eats fresh foods that are cooked at home without a lot of additives. Tecton fits into her ayurvedic lifestyle as a natural drink. As a nature-identical drink, Nancy believes Tecton can help anyone easily transition to a healthier way of living.

Tecton helps me feel like me all day. It gives me a second life in the middle of the day to carry me through the afternoon, evening, and night.

Dr. Velaphi Thipe

Why Dr. Velaphi Thipe Loves Tecton

Dr. Thipe is a research scientist and athlete who plays for a club soccer league in Columbia, Missouri. He incorporates boxing, animal flow, and cycling into his workout regime. Using a monitoring device 24/7 to track his performance analytics, Dr Thipe has found that Tecton optimizes his workouts through improved hydration, physical endurance, and performance.

Dr. Thipe has also experienced a noticeable increase in mental clarity from drinking Tecton. He advises people to drink Tecton in the morning before going to work or class, 30 minutes before exercising, and in the evening to achieve a state of tranquility to wind down the day.

For Dr. Thipe, wellness is a way of life, not a one-time goal. He recognizes that starting a wellness journey can be overwhelming and recommends incorporating healthy habits into daily routines by prioritizing sleep, focusing on a balanced diet and getting at least 20 minutes of physical activity every day. Most importantly, be kind to yourself and celebrate small victories in your wellness journey. Finally, make it fun and sustainable with Tecton, which contains exogenous ketones to help you through your wellness journey.

Live not to impress but to IMPACT others – Tecton impacts lives by allowing you to unleash your extraordinary potential!
