Why Caffeine?
Caffeine has been shown to promote alertness and reduce perceived effort and pain. These are properties that can be beneficial in sports performance. The GEL 100 CAF 100 can be used for building up caffeine levels on its own, together with other caffeine sources, such as regular coffee or to achieve sufficient caffeine levels during activity.
Amount of Carbohydrates
It is well known that our bodies can make use of about 60 grams of ingested carbohydrates per hour, in the form of glucose or maltodextrin (glucose polymer). Using a 0.5:1 combination of fructose and glucose/maltodextrin, allows uptake of up to 90 grams per hour. More recent studies have shown that increased fructose content, above 0.5:1 enables an even higher uptake. The GEL 100 CAF 100 is based on a 0.8:1 fructose-to-glucose ratio. One serving contains 25 grams of carbohydrates.
When to Use
Use the GEL 100 CAF 100 on its own during shorter durations (under an hour) or combine it with other Maurten products to ensure you have enough carbohydrates throughout your session.
