More about Maurten Gel 100.
Gel 100 uses Maurten´s Hydrogel Technology, based on alginate (from seaweed) and pectin (vegetable fiber).
When these fibers reach the stomach and come into contact with gastric acid, they change their structure into a gel-like form, creating a matrix that encapsulates the carbohydrates inside.
This reaction has several benefits:
– It makes the gel easier to tolerate.
– It helps the contents pass from the stomach to the intestine faster and easier.
– It allows for a higher intake of carbohydrates without digestive issues.
Its combination of glucose and fructose in a 1:0.8 ratio allows for the use of different intestinal transporters (SGLT1 and GLUT5), promoting efficient absorption, which is especially important when carbohydrate intake is high (above 60g/h)
