Maurten Gel100 Energygel
Maurten
This is the world's first energy gel. It is a bold statement. But still true. From a technical perspective, traditional "gels" of water and carbohydrates are mixed in syrups, often filled with flavors and preservatives. The instructions indicate that you must consume them with water.
The GEL 100 is completely different. It is a biopolymer matrix, filled with a unique mix of glucose and fructose (ratio of 0.8: 1) that allows recordings of up to 100 grams of carbohydrates per hour.
It is built using natural hydrogel technology and built with six natural ingredients. It contains no dyes or preservatives and is supplied in 40 g portions containing 60% carbohydrates - a high ratio of weight to energy.
The GEL 100 does not taste very sweet, you could almost say it is tasteless, because the carbohydrates are encapsulated in the hydrogel structure. You do not have to rinse it with water.
Studies have shown that our bodies can use up to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour. Recent science has shown that the glucose and fructose ratio of 0.8: 1 allows an even greater intake - up to 100 grams per hour. The GEL 100 has been developed by using this ratio and packing a lot of energy. One portion contains 25 grams of carbohydrates. Consume 4x GEL 100 per hour and you are all set.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
GEL 100 is built on hydrogel technology *. The hydrogel ensures a smooth transport of carbohydrates through the stomach to the intestine, where the water, salt and carbohydrates are absorbed.
Ingredients:
- Water
- Glucose
- fructose
- Calcium carbonate
- Gluconic acid
- Sodium alginate
The Maurten Gel 100 is a concentrated carbohydrate solution encapsulated in a biopolymer matrix. A liquid in a solid medium that encapsulates salt, carbohydrates, and water.
