• A 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose reduces self-reported symptoms of stomach fullness compared to a 2:1 ratio.

The science behind Beta Fuel has evolved

Through their Performance Solutions team, they have worked closely with elite athletes in the research and development of the new Beta Fuel range to bring you a scientifically superior fuel in different forms allowing the use of +17% carbohydrates in addition (O'Brien et al, 2013).

• A ratio of 1:0.8 improves the oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates compared to a 2:1 ratio by 17% (O'Brien et al) and 10% (O'Brien et al).
• A ratio of 1:0.8 improves average power output during 10 maximal sprint efforts by 3% compared to a ratio of 2:1 (O'Brien et al).
• A ratio of 1:0.8 increases the percentage of ingested carbohydrates that have been oxidized (efficiency) from 62% (2:1) to 74% (1:0.8) (O'Brien et al).
• A ratio of 1:0.8 reduces symptoms of stomach fullness and nausea compared to a ratio of 2:1 (O'Brien et al).

Suggested Use

Each gel contains 40 grams of carbohydrates. Depending on your sport or event, you should aim to consume 1 to 3 gels per hour during exercise to reach a target consumption of 80 to 120g. In certain circumstances, such as cold weather, it may be necessary to consume more. Simply tear the top of the package and squeeze the contents into your mouth as needed.
