High Fructose Gel provides 55g of carbohydrate content and 250 mg of sodium per gel that come from maltodextrin and fructose, with a ratio of 10: 8.
This formulation based on “multi-transportable carbohydrates” has been shown through studies that in prolonged exercises the use of carbohydrates that are absorbed in the intestine by different transporters is the only way to increase the rate. assimilation and oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates above 60 g/hour.
To do this, research confirms that the ideal is to combine sources of carbohydrates. We have chosen Maltodextrin, to control the molecular weight/osmolarity, and the other has to be Fructose.
MALTODEXTRIN:
It is absorbed in the intestine by the SLGT-1 transporter and converted into glucose to travel to cells and provide them with energy quickly.
It has a high glycemic index, rapid increase in blood glucose, instant energy release.
Rapid gastric emptying due to its large molecular weight and low osmolarity, promoting digestion and reducing gastrointestinal side effects.
FRUCTOSE:
It is absorbed in the intestine using GLUT5 transporters, different from those that absorb other carbohydrates, the absorbed fructose is directed from the intestine to the liver by GLUT2 transporters and replenishes liver glycogen stores. that is lost during intense physical exercise.
There is a gradual absorption with constant and progressive release of energy.
It is for this reason that the combination of both, maltodextrin and fructose, allows you to digest and assimilate a high amount of carbohydrates per hour, minimizing the risk of suffering from gastric problems.
