HIGH FRUCTOSE GEL 80g

An energy gel formulated with maltodextrin and fructose in a 10:8 ratio, providing 55 g of carbohydrates and 220 kcal per gel. It also contains 250 mg of sodium. It is vegan-friendly, gluten-free, and available in six flavors.

High Fructose Gel has been awarded the Cologne List seal; it is the world’s first and largest anti-doping platform for nutritional supplements.

The Cologne List includes only products that have undergone rigorous testing—through laboratory analysis and label verification—to ensure that manufacturers do not use prohibited substances listed by WADA (World Anti-Doping\n Agency) in their products.

This formulation, based on “multi-transporter carbohydrates,” has been shown in studies* that during prolonged exercise, the use of carbohydrates absorbed in the intestine by different transporters is the only way to increase the rate of assimilation and oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates above 60 g/hour*.

Research confirms that the best approach is to combine different sources of carbohydrates. We have chosen maltodextrin to control the molecular weight and osmolarity, and the other source must be fructose.

MALTODEXTRIN:

• It is absorbed in the intestine by the SLGT-1 transporter and converted into glucose, which is then transported to the cells to provide them with rapid energy.
• It has a high glycemic index, causing a rapid rise in blood glucose and an instant release of energy.
• Rapid gastric emptying due to its high molecular weight and low osmolarity, favoring digestion and reducing gastrointestinal side effects.

FRUCTOSE:

• It is absorbed in the intestine via GLUT5 transporters—which are different from those that absorb other carbohydrates—and the absorbed fructose is transported from the intestine to the liver via GLUT2 transporters, where it replenishes the liver’s glycogen stores that are depleted during intense physical exercise.
• Absorption occurs gradually, with a constant and progressive release of energy.

That is why the combination of maltodextrin and fructose allows the body to digest and absorb a large amount of carbohydrates per hour while minimizing the risk of stomach problems.

DIRECTIONS: Take up to 2 tablets every 60 minutes during exercise with approximately 300 ml of water.
