"Dual-source carbohydrate blends utilising glucose and fructose in a ~1:0.8 ratio have been shown to oxidise at rates up to 90g per hour, significantly higher than single-source glucose drinks — with reduced gastrointestinal symptoms."

"Sodium ingestion during exercise maintains plasma volume, stimulates thirst, and promotes fluid retention — all of which contribute to improved hydration status and exercise performance."

Tanah (South Africa) I cant recommend this product enough - its all I use on race day for ultras and it has never let me down.
What I also like is that I can use the same small bottle and just increase the amount diluted with water, saves on space and weight.
No toliet problems either. Winning

Leone S. (South Africa) I work out twice a day, and this has changed my energy levels, especially in the afternoon session! It's such a great product!

Alize v. (South Africa) Love the taste

Ntombentle (South Africa) It is very good for athletes and it's doesn't have any side effects I'm really happy with it.

Fabio G. (South Africa) Good stuff! Heaps of sodium which am hoping reduces bloating from increasing liquid intake and allows more to be drunk in particularly warmer conditions. Also hoping it avoids muscle cramping. Could possibly mix a bit better. I have found the powder sometimes sticks a bit together at the bottom of my flasks otherwise so far so good!

Igna (South Africa) I started using this as part of my nutrition for Ultra Trail Runs. No gut issues whatsoever. Mixes very easily (other products just doesn't mix easy sometimes). I love the flexibility of adjusting my carbon intake with the mix. Sustained me in 4 hour+ trail run with li.ited extra solids. Great flavour. The extra Himalayan salt most definately assist with absorption of the product (keeping electrolyte balance) and prevents cramping to am extent. Loving this product!!
