226ERS HIGH FRUCTOSE GEL - Energy Gel 80g - Cola (100mg of Caffeine)

High fructose gel provides 55g carbohydrate contribution and 250 mg of sodium per gel that come from maltodextrine and fructose, with a proportion 10: 8.

This formulation based on “multi -transportable carbohydrates” has been demonstrated through studies*, which in prolonged exercises the use of carbohydrates that are absorbed in the intestine by different transporters is the only way to increase the assimilation and oxidation rate of exogenous carbohydrates above 60 g/hour*.

To do this Research confirms that the ideal is to combine carbohydrates sources. We have opted for Maltodextrin, to control the molecular weight/osmolarity, and the other has to be fructose.

Maltodextrin:

• It is absorbed in the intestine by the SLGT-1 transporter and becomes glucose to travel to the cells and provide them with energy quickly.
• It is high glycemic index, rapid increase in blood glucose, instant energy release.
• Fast gastric emptying due to its great molecular weight and low osmolarity, favoring digestion and reducing gastrointestinal side effects.

FRUCTOSE:

• It is absorbed in the intestine using glut5 transporters, different from those that absorb other carbohydrates, the absorbed fructose is directed from the intestine to the liver by glut2 transporters and fill in the liver glycogen deposits that are lost during intense physical exercise.
• Gradual absorption with constant and progressive energy is produced.

It is for this reason that the combination of both, maltodextrin and fructose allows to digest and assimilate a high amount of carbohydrates per hour minimizing the risk of gastric problems.

High fructose gel is available in 80g Stick format and six flavors:

• Banana.
• Strawberry (Strawberry).
• Cola with 100mg of caffeine.
• Lemon (Lemon).
• Cherry with 160mg of caffeine
• Spekulatius

Net quantity: 80g.
