Each 80g gel provides 55g of carbohydrates and 250mg of sodium. The 44g XS format provides 30g of carbohydrates and 140mg of sodium.
This formulation, based on "multi-transportable carbohydrates," has been shown in various studies* to facilitate intestinal absorption through different transporters. This characteristic represents an effective mechanism for increasing the rate of assimilation and oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates to over 60 g per hour*.
For this reason, research confirms that it is highly recommended to combine carbohydrate sources such as maltodextrin and fructose.
MALTODEXTRIN:
- Unlike glucose, it needs to be broken down, resulting in a more gradual and sustained source of energy.
- It has a high glycemic index, achieving a rapid increase in blood glucose without necessarily providing an excessively sweet taste that could overwhelm us in this type of product.
- As it is a carbohydrate chain, it has a high molecular weight which leads to a solution with a lower osmolarity, promoting digestion and reducing possible gastrointestinal side effects.
FRUCTOSE:
- Fructose is a monosaccharide, the simplest form in which we can find carbohydrates, using a ratio of 1:0.8, based on the latest studies to maximize the oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates compared to other proportions.
- The use of fructose in such a specific proportion is especially recommended for athletes who exceed carbohydrate intakes of 60g/h.
- Thanks to this, through the combination of both, maltodextrin and fructose allows for the digestion and assimilation of a high amount of carbohydrates per hour, minimizing the risk of suffering from gastric problems.
