Life Pro Endurance Energy Gel 60ml

What is it for?

In recent years, due to the high energy demands of intense activities, the role of sports nutrition has become one of the key pillars of training. Factors such as the intake of carbohydrates, caffeine, and electrolytes are essential. Additionally, the amount of carbohydrates consumed during exercise should be tailored to the athlete’s individual needs for optimal performance.

Carbohydrate intake during exercise may vary depending on the source. For low or moderate intake, a source of glucose is sufficient. However, in sports with high carbohydrate demands (45-60 g per hour), a 2:1 combination of glucose and fructose is an excellent choice to maximize total consumption. Using fructose alongside glucose may offer greater benefits compared to using them separately.

These energy gels are an ideal solution, as each gel contains 20 g of maltodextrin, 10 g of fructose (30 g of total carbohydrates), and 200 mg of sodium, the main electrolyte lost through sweat.

With a watery texture, refreshing properties, and a smooth flavor without excessive sweetness or bitterness, these gels are easy to consume even during prolonged activities. Additionally, their quick and simple opening format ensures practical consumption without distractions.

Lastly, as they do not contain stimulants, these gels can be combined with other products rich in caffeine or used during non-stimulant training sessions, fully adapting to the athlete’s needs.

In conclusion, for sports requiring high levels of carbohydrates, maltodextrin and fructose gels are an excellent option.

Benefits:

• Facilitates carbohydrate intake during exercise.

What dose to take?

Adjust the dose based on your daily energy and nutritional needs. However, it has been proven that consuming between 30 and 90 grams of carbohydrates during exercise improves athletic performance in the medium and long term. For instance, if you require 30 g of carbohydrates per hour, you can take the gel.
