The company was founded in 1993 along with physicians at Johns Hopkins University, to develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance, rice-based oral rehydration solutions (ORS).

The development of Cera Product’s oral rehydration therapy (ORT) products began in Bangladesh at the International Center for Diarrheal Disease Research in Dhaka (ICDDRB) [2] during the 1980s. It was at the ICDDRB where Cera Products Inc. president, Charlene Riikonen, Drs. David Sack and W. B. Greenough III met and worked together with the intention of preventing unnecessary suffering, severe illnesses and death by assisting individuals who were afflicted with dehydration and diarrhea.

The packaging of a typical bar will provide a precise nutritional breakdown in order to assist the athlete in maintaining a dietary regimen. Major brand names in North America include the Balance Bar, HOOAH! Bar, PowerBar, and Clif Bar. It is also possible to make one's own energy bars using an online recipe or a baking mix such as Matisse & Jack's Homemade Energy Bar Mix.

Ginseng alternatives

These mostly adaptogenic plants are sometimes referred to as ginsengs, but they are either from a different family or genus. Only Jiaogulan actually contains ginsenosides, although ginsenosides alone do not determine the effectiveness of ginseng. Since each of these plants have different uses, one should research their properties before using. Descriptions and differentiation can be found in David Winston and Steven Maimes book Adaptogens[20]

Other plants which are referred to as ginsengs may not be adaptogens (although notoginseng is in the Panax family):
