The flavor is a light note of strawberry and lime with a fresh tart hint. No water needed, ready to use immediately. Gluten-free, suitable for vegans, Informed Sport certified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy 40 grams and not 22 grams\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiS's standard energy gel, the GO Isotonic, provides 22 grams of carbohydrates per 60 ml. The Beta Fuel Gel provides 40 grams in the same 60 ml, from two sources in a 1:0.8 maltodextrin to fructose ratio. For efforts over two hours, 80-120 grams of carbohydrates per hour are needed to maintain glycogen stores. Two Beta Fuel Gels per hour are sufficient for this. With the GO Isotonic gel, it would take almost four to achieve the same result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo transport pathways, increased efficiency\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaltodextrin is absorbed in the gut via the SGLT1 transporter and goes directly to the muscles as rapidly available glucose. Fructose takes another route via GLUT5 and is processed by the liver. The liver then delivers glucose into the bloodstream, which contributes to a slightly more stable energy level over a longer period. With a 2:1 ratio, SGLT1 quickly saturates. The 1:0.8 ratio better distributes the load, increasing total oxidation efficiency from 62% to 74%, as demonstrated in a comparative study.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIt contains sodium, unlike the Beta Fuel sachet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Beta Fuel 80 powder sachet does not contain sodium. The gel does: sodium citrate and sodium chloride are on the ingredient list. This is a modest amount of 0.1 gram of salt per gel, but it serves a purpose. Sodium promotes glucose absorption via SGLT1 and maintains taste balance. During prolonged exertion where you sweat a lot, it does not replace all of your sodium losses. In that case, add a HYDRO tablet or a HYDRO+ sachet to your drinking water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo Beta Fuel Gels per hour provide 80 grams of carbohydrates. Three gels reach the upper limit of 120 grams. Combine them if you wish with the Beta Fuel 80 sachet if you have a bottle with you, or use them alone as a gel strategy if you are cycling or running without a bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SIS","offers":[{"title":"30 pieces","offer_id":49373448601828,"sku":"5025324010400","price":47.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"15 items","offer_id":49373448634596,"sku":"8721055251019","price":33.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"6 rooms","offer_id":49373448667364,"sku":"8721055252139","price":17.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 piece","offer_id":49373448700132,"sku":"1472583695","price":3.48,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/9724\/7460\/files\/Untitleddesign_3_a9fcd73d-af9c-481f-9a01-a59b6c0b44c0.jpg?v=1783687343","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.fr\/en\/products\/sis-beta-fuel-gel-1-0-8-maltodextrin-fructose-ratio","provider":"LUTO Supplements France","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
