The Maurten Bicarb System is an advanced sports nutrition product designed to help athletes push the limits of effort and power during intensive training. The system includes a mixing bowl, the hydrogel component, the bicarbonate component, and access to the Bicarb Digital System. AthleteSportsWorld is the exclusive triathlon and endurance sports partner for the sale of the Maurten Bi-Carb system in the Netherlands.  The Maurten Bicarb System does for bicarbonate what Maurten Gel 100 and Drink Mixes did for carbohydrates — using Hydrogel Technology to encapsulate bicarbonate and make high doses tolerable for athletes. Lactic acid is not the enemy — it is a fuel source produced during intense anaerobic effort. It is the increase in acidity during these efforts that overwhelms muscles and leads to fatigue. Large doses of sodium bicarbonate neutralize the negative effects of rising acidity, but there has always been a catch — stomach issues that negate performance gains. The Bicarb System cracks the code to deliver the smoothest and most effective bicarbonate experience ever. The Maurten Bicarb System offers several serving sizes — 12, 15, 19, 22, and 25. It is not one-size-fits-all. The correct portion is determined by the athlete’s weight and bicarbonate experience. Generally: the heavier the athlete, the larger the portion. But without experience, more is not necessarily better — you need to train your gut. Component A — Bowl The Maurten Bicarb System bowl is designed for precise and optimal mixing and serving. It is printed with clear instructions, large enough to hold with one hand, and features a screw cap for travel and storage. Component B — Hydrogel History in the making. The hydrogel component builds on our years of extensive hydrogel research to create a specially formulated hydrogel that protects sodium bicarbonate from stomach acid and allows easy swallowing without chewing. Each serving contains 40g of carbohydrates to fuel athletes before their race or session. Component C — Bicarbonate Minimal in size, massive in effect. The bicarbonate component contains groundbreaking mini bicarbonate tablets that provide much better control. They enable a slower release of bicarbonate in the intestines — which can both help reduce stomach issues and extend the duration of the bicarbonate effect. Preparation is essential — and getting bicarbonate right requires planning ahead. The optimal window for a dose of the Bicarb System is 1–2 hours after a meal, such as breakfast, and 1.5–2 hours before starting intensive training or competition. Each Maurten Bicarb System includes a QR code to unlock the Bicarb Digital System — created by our in-house nutrition scientists to make it intuitive to plan, prepare, and execute a bicarbonate session or race. It’s practically your personal bicarbonate nutrition expert.
