FEATURES

• High Fructose Gel provides a 55 g supply of carbohydrates
• 250 mg of sodium per gel
• MALTODEXTRIN: Is absorbed in the small intestine by the transporter SLG-1 and converted into glucose for delivery to the cells, quickly providing them with energy. This is a high glycaemic index, a rapid rise in blood glucose levels, with instant release of energy. Rapid gastric emptying thanks to its high molecular weight and low osmolarity, favouring digestion and reducing secondary gastrointestinal effects.
• FRUCTOSE: Is absorbed in the small intestine using the GLUT5 transporters, different to those that absorb other carbohydrates. The absorbed fructose travels from the intestine to the liver by GLUT2 transporters and tops up the stores of hepatic glycogen lost during intense physical exercise. Gradual absorption occurs, with a steady and progressive release of energy.

This is why the combination of maltodextrin and fructose enables the digestion and assimilation of high amounts of carbohydrates per hour, reducing the risk of gastric problems.
