That's what Maurten's \u003cstrong\u003eDrink Mix\u003c\/strong\u003e is for. One sachet dissolved in 500 ml of water provides 80 grams of carbohydrates and 100 mg of caffeine. Liquid, fast, and uncomplicated. Running, cycling, or triathlon: it's fuel to drink while giving it your all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Hydrogel Technology Does\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs soon as the drink mix reaches the stomach, the blend of sodium alginate and pectin forms a thin gel layer around the carbohydrates. This layer allows them to glide more smoothly to the small intestine, where they are absorbed. The difference from a classic sports drink: less risk of that bloated or nauseous feeling associated with large quantities of sugar in water. At high intensity, this difference is felt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e80 Grams of Carbohydrates Per Sachet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor efforts lasting more than two hours, specialists often recommend 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour. One sachet already gets you there. The carbohydrates come from maltodextrin and fructose, absorbed through different pathways (SGLT1 and GLUT5): your intestines process more carbohydrates at once than with a single source. Furthermore, a food containing fructose results in a lower blood sugar rise than foods containing sucrose or glucose, for a more consistent energy supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCaffeine During Exercise, Not Before\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany people get their caffeine from an espresso before starting. This drink mix takes a different approach: 100 mg of caffeine in your bottle, distributed over sips taken along the way. In the brain, caffeine blocks the action of adenosine, a substance that signals fatigue: the effort seems a little less hard. For a 70-kilogram athlete, 100 mg is a moderate dose. If you already drink coffee beforehand, add up your total caffeine intake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMixing and Diluting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ratio is simple: one sachet for 500 ml of water. Too little water makes the solution too concentrated and harder to digest; too much water and you lose the hydrogel structure. Use water containing a maximum of 80 mg of calcium per liter, shake vigorously, and check for lumps. For a triathlon or long race, prepare several bottles to have fresh drink mix every hour.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maurten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49398247948516,"sku":"7350008410343","price":48.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/9724\/7460\/files\/Maurtendrinkmix320caf100indoos.jpg?v=1784023681","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.fr\/en\/products\/drink-mix-320-cafeine-100","provider":"LUTO Supplements France","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
