This pack contains 8 XS size gels in 44g

Each 80g gel provides 55g of carbohydrates and 250mg of sodium. The 44g XS size provides 30g of carbohydrates and 140mg of sodium.

This formulation based on "multi-transportable carbohydrates" has been shown in several studies* to facilitate intestinal absorption via different transporters. This characteristic represents an effective mechanism for increasing the rate of assimilation and oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates beyond 60 g per hour*.

Research confirms that combining carbohydrate sources such as maltodextrin and fructose is highly recommended.

MALTODEXTRIN:

• Unlike glucose, it must be broken down, resulting in a more gradual and sustained source of energy.
• It has a high glycemic index, causing a rapid increase in blood sugar without necessarily offering an excessively sweet taste, which could saturate this type of product.
• Being a carbohydrate chain, it has a high molecular weight, leading to a solution with a lower osmolarity, promoting digestion and reducing possible gastrointestinal side effects.

FRUCTOSE:

• Fructose is a monosaccharide, the simplest form of carbohydrate. Using the 1:0,8 ratio, based on recent research, maximizes the oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates compared to other ratios.
• The use of fructose in such a precise proportion is particularly recommended for athletes exceeding a carbohydrate intake of 60g/h.
• Thanks to this, the combination of maltodextrin and fructose allows you to digest and assimilate a large amount of carbohydrates per hour while minimizing the risk of gastric disorders.
