Maurten Gel 100 for Running and Cycling

Imagine: you're in the middle of a long run or race and you need fuel. Quick, compact, uncomplicated. That's what the Maurten energy gel was designed for. The Gel 100 provides 25 grams of carbohydrates per sachet, in a small, lightweight package, easy to slip into a back pocket or belt. This box contains 12 sachets, enough to cover several training sessions or a long event.

Glucose and Fructose via Two Pathways

Your intestines absorb glucose and fructose through different transport pathways: glucose via the SGLT1 channel, fructose via the GLUT5 channel. By combining the two sugars in a fructose/glucose ratio of 0.8:1, your body can process more carbohydrates per hour than with glucose alone. The result: more energy available during running or cycling, without overloading the stomach with a single type of sugar. With 25 grams per sachet, you can easily adapt: two to three sachets per hour will bring you close to 50 to 75 grams of carbohydrates.

A Hydrogel Rather Than a Syrup

Most energy gels are syrupy and stick to the palate. Maurten does things differently with its patented Hydrogel technology. The Gel 100 contains sodium alginate and calcium carbonate. As soon as they reach the stomach, the acidic environment forms a gel-like structure around the carbohydrates. The result is a firmer, non-syrupy texture. You can take Gel 100 without water, although staying hydrated during exercise remains important. Water contributes to the maintenance of normal physical and cognitive functions. The ingredient list is short: water, glucose, fructose, sodium alginate, gluconic acid, and calcium carbonate. No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.

Six Ingredients, Nothing More

Many athletes are used to gels with a long list of additives: caffeine, taurine, sweeteners, flavors. The Maurten Gel 100 deliberately avoids these. Six ingredients, that's all. This choice also makes it easier to combine with your own nutrition and caffeine strategy: if you want caffeine, you decide when and how much.

How to Incorporate the Gel During Exercise

During endurance efforts lasting more than an hour, it's generally recommended to consume 30 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour, depending on intensity and duration. One sachet of this gel provides 25 grams: the math is quick. Many start with one gel per hour and gradually increase. Practice this during training, not on race day. And a gel does not replace your drink: always combine with sufficient fluid, especially in hot weather.

Why Maurten Gel 100 Box of 12 servings?

Glucose and fructose in a 0.8:1 ratio

Glucose and fructose each use a different channel in the intestine: SGLT1 and GLUT5. By combining them at a 0.8:1 ratio, you utilize both pathways simultaneously and absorb more carbohydrates per hour than with a glucose-only gel.

Patented Hydrogel, Not Syrup

Most gels are syrupy and stick to the roof of your mouth. Gel 100 contains sodium alginate and calcium carbonate, which form a hydrogel structure around the carbohydrates in the stomach, providing a firmer texture that can be taken without water.

Six ingredients, nothing more

Water, glucose, fructose, sodium alginate, gluconic acid and calcium carbonate. No added colorants, flavors, sweeteners or preservatives. Easy to combine with your own caffeine and nutrition strategy.

25 grams of carbohydrates, easily adjustable

Each sachet provides 25 grams of carbohydrates, making hourly calculations simple. Two to three sachets give you 50-75 grams per hour. The box contains 12 sachets, enough to cover several long training sessions or a competition.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many gels per hour when running?

It depends on the intensity and duration. For runs over an hour, 30-90 grams of carbohydrates per hour is common. One Gel 100 sachet provides 25 grams; with two to three gels per hour, you'll be at 50-75 grams. Start with one gel per hour and gradually increase, always during training.

Can you take a gel without water?

Yes. Thanks to hydrogel technology, Maurten Gel 100 has a firmer texture than most gels and can be consumed without water. However, hydration remains important during exercise: drink regularly, regardless of the gel.

When to take a gel during a competition?

Most athletes take their first gel after 30 to 45 minutes of exercise, then at regular intervals, for example every 20 to 30 minutes. The frequency depends on your total hourly need and how it combines with your sports drink. Practice it in advance.

Isn't Maurten Gel 100 more expensive?

The price per sachet is indeed higher. In return, the ingredient list contains only six items, with no colorants, flavorings, or preservatives. The patented hydrogel technology and the 0.8:1 glucose-fructose ratio are not standard in this market.

Why both glucose and fructose?

Glucose and fructose are absorbed through different pathways: glucose via SGLT1, fructose via GLUT5. By combining them, your body processes more carbohydrates per hour than with glucose alone. The 0.8:1 fructose-to-glucose ratio is chosen to best leverage this dual absorption.

What's the difference from a classic energy gel?

The main difference is the hydrogel technology. Most gels are syrupy and contain flavorings, sweeteners, or caffeine. Gel 100 contains only six ingredients and forms a gel-like structure around the carbohydrates in the stomach, thanks to sodium alginate and calcium carbonate. Its texture is firmer, non-sticky, and free of caffeine and flavorings.
