The world’s most carbohydrate-rich sports drink. Widely used by the best runners in the world.
80g of carbs per serving (500 ml). Can be used before, during and/or after activity.
Running wisdom suggests that if you’re on the move for longer than an hour, your performance could be improved with a sports drink or gel.
The challenge for manufacturers of energy products has been to deliver more carbohydrate in a way your body can tolerate it. Maurten have succeeded – using hydrogel technology.
The drink transforms into a hydrogel in the stomach, which enables smooth movement of the drink to the intestine, where it’s absorbed without causing any upset.
- 80g carbohydrates, 320 calories
- No added flavours
- No added colours or preservatives, only natural ingredients
Although relatively new to the Sports nutrition market, Maurten helped to fuel winners at all of the six marathon majors in 2018.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Drink Mix 320 is built on hydrogel technology. When mixed with water you have a liquid carbohydrate sports drink containing a high concentration of maltodextrin and fructose. The sports drink instantly converts to hydrogel in the acidity of the stomach. The hydrogel enables a smooth transportation of the drink through the stomach to the intestine where the water, salt and carbohydrates are absorbed.
Studies have shown that our bodies can make use of up to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour. One Drink Mix 320 sachet, mixed with 500 ml of water – contains 80 grams of carbohydrates.
Mix the content of each sachet with 500 ml of water and shake well until dissolved. Be accurate, the functionality depends on this ratio. The mix is designed to be mixed with water with <40mg/L calcium content. Higher levels can affect how it’s dissolved. Consume the sports drink minutes before, during and or directly after activity.
