Description
High Energy Gel from 226ers, is the only such gel on the market: it contains 50 grams of carbohydrates (as much as 2-3 classic gels) and cyclodextrin, which makes the feeling of power and satiety, without weighing down the stomach, stay with us for longer.
High Energy Gel, due to its high concentration of carbohydrates, has a thick consistency. Its consumption requires a moment of time. It is an excellent gel for long training sessions, staying in the mountains, circumstances where you are limited by the logistics of packing, etc.
While there are experienced racers who use High Energy Gel at any type of race without any problem, we suggest that for fast races where there is no time to squeeze the gel and swallow it, you should choose all other energy and isotonic gels from 226ers.
Among the 9 different flavors, you can find one that you wait to go to your workout and eat it.
You can also select them according to the needs of the day:
> Caffeine (stimulation, concentration): Espresso (80 mg of caffeine)
> Salty, contain 250 mg of sodium (gastrointestinal comfort, proper water and electrolyte balance, prevention of cramps): Strawberry
> no additives: Lemon and Banana
Maltodextrin:
- undergoes digestion to glucose molecules, which are absorbed in the intestine mainly via SGLT1 transporters
- is characterized by a high glycemic index, causing a dynamic increase in blood glucose concentration thanks to which it quickly becomes an energy substrate
- ensures rapid gastric emptying due to its high molecular weight and low osmolality, which supports the digestive process and reduces the risk of gastrointestinal disorders.
Cyclodextrin:
- The absorption process of cyclodextrins occurs in a delayed manner compared to maltodextrin. Glucose molecules from cyclodextrins are absorbed in the small intestine, mainly by SGLT1 transporters, but the rate of this process is slower due to the complex structure of the
- is characterized by a lower glycemic index than maltodextrin, resulting in a slower and more stable rise in blood glucose concentration, providing long-term access to energy substrate
- Due to its high molecular weight structure and low osmolality, it affects the rapid emptying of the stomach. This promotes the process of digestion, reduces the risk of negative reactions from the gastrointestinal tract.
