Product Description.

Drink Mix changed the game for endurance sport. It enables athletes to consume carbohydrate liquid fuel during training and racing with less risk of discomfort. Delivering 40 grams of carbohydrates per 500ml, Drink Mix 160 favors longer, lower intensity sessions or races.

The Drink Mix becomes a hydrogel upon contact with stomach acid, encapsulating the carbohydrates, and helping to reduce the sensation of liquid sloshing in the stomach when exercising at a high intensity.

The hydrogel limits contact between the carbohydrates and the stomach acid, promoting faster transfer to the intestines where the energy is absorbed.

The science

Drink Mix is a pH-sensitive liquid. When it meets the acidic environment of the stomach an instant reaction occurs that converts the liquid into a hydrogel. The hydrogel encapsulates the carbohydrates, preventing it from breaking down in the stomach and enabling the smooth transportation of fuel through to the intestines. Here, the hydrogel dissolves and the carbohydrate is released and absorbed.

The comfort

Consuming large volumes of liquid during sport can cause a sloshing or bouncing sensation in the stomach. It’s a feeling of discomfort that limits performance. By changing from a liquid to a hydrogel, Drink Mix reduces the stress in the stomach so athletes can consume liquid fuel with high concentrations of carbohydrates, and maintain high-intensity performance.

Fueling right from the start.

The following guidelines outline fueling strategies for common training sessions and race plans. Remember that a fuel guide is highly personal and varies depending on individual diets and also on specific training programs. The following information is for reference only and can help empower your training, by creating, refining, and help you execute your fuel strategy.

To the Fuel Guide 

Science is a part of our nature. And vice versa.

In 2015, we discovered how to make sports fuels easier to tolerate by encapsulating high concentrations of carbohydrates in hydrogels. The sports fuels, based on only natural ingredients, became popular and one year later some of the world's best runners started using our products. The technology is patent pending.
