What is a SPORTS UNIT?

A SPORTS UNIT is a unit of measurement that contains exactly 30g of carbohydrates in a 2:1 ratio. The SPORTS UNIT keeps our 6d SPORTS SERIES united, making it easy to supplement individual energy needs during exercise.

Why does 1 SPORTS UNIT contain 30 g of carbohydrates?

During moderate to intensive sporting efforts lasting 1 to 3 hours, a carbohydrate intake of 30 g, 60 g or even 90 g per hour is generally recommended for optimal performance. Therefore, 1 SPORTS UNIT contains exactly 30 g of carbohydrates, making it easy and precise for athletes to achieve the desired carbohydrate intake. The ideal carbohydrate intake depends on the athlete, their goals and the type of sport they practice.

Why a 2:1 carbohydrate ratio for SPORTS UNIT?

During exercise, glucose absorption from the intestine into the bloodstream is limited to approximately 60-70 g per hour. Adding fructose to glucose can increase total carbohydrate intake to at least 90 g per hour, especially when combined with regular "bowel training." A 2:1 CARBON HYDRATE RATIO therefore makes it possible to effectively use both absorption routes. Additionally, the natural sweetness of fructose in the 2:1 ratio provides a perfect balance between efficient energy delivery and delicious taste.

What about electrolytes?

Moisture and electrolytes (mainly sodium) are essential for optimal hydration. The more you sweat, the more fluids and electrolytes you need. That's why our sports drinks contain a blend of electrolytes and 400 mg of sodium. By using our sports drinks, you automatically replenish the electrolytes you lose through sweating. Our gels are often used as the sole source of energy during exercise, with water providing the necessary hydration. To promote hydration, we have added 200 mg of sodium to our gels. For bars, this is not necessary as they are often used in combination with our sports drinks, which are high in sodium and electrolytes. However, our "salty" flavor bars contain 200 mg of sodium and are therefore specifically designed for people who lose a lot of salt and therefore have an increased sodium requirement.

How to use : 

Take 1-2 bars per hour during exercise.
