Description
Maurten Gel 100 CAF 100 - -
Energy-filled hydrogel? Yep! This GEL 100 CAF 100 serves up 100 mg of caffeine per portion—equal to 1.5 espressos or one cup of joe. That's a mighty lot compared to similar gels. Plus, you get 25g of carbs (provided by a 0.8:1 fructose-glucose blend), no added preservatives, colorings, or flavors, and a high energy-to-weight ratio. Vegans rejoice! Use it during short periods solo, or combine with others for a carb-riffic marathon session.
Caffeine can boost alertness, reduce perceived effort & pain, aiding sports performance. GEL 100 CAF 100 can be used to build caffeine levels or during activities.
It's a well-known fact that our bodies can absorb about 60g of carbs an hour in the form of glucose/maltodextrin. But when the ratio of fructose to those carbs is 0.5:1, we can intake up to 90g/hr! Recent research even suggests that upping the fructose content beyond 0.5:1 can yield even better results. And GEL 100 CAF 100 is based on a 0.8:1 fructose-to-glucose ratio, so each serving offers 25g of carbs.
Developing a nutritional strategy for races/sessions is complex; everyone's caffeine absorption/metabolizing rate differs. Key factors to consider: body weight & caffeine experience; science suggests 3 mg/kg body mass to aid performance, but it's individual.
Suitable for Vegetarians & Vegans.
