Key Benefits of Drink Mix 160
|
How does it work?Maurten Drink Mix 160 uses Hydrogel Technology to optimise carbohydrate absorption and digestion. When mixed with water, it forms a liquid solution that, upon reaching the acidic environment of the stomach, transforms into a hydrogel. This hydrogel encapsulates the carbohydrates, preventing them from sitting heavily in the stomach and reducing the risk of gastrointestinal discomfort. Once in the intestines, the hydrogel dissolves, releasing the carbohydrates for rapid absorption into the bloodstream. This unique delivery system ensures a steady supply of energy without causing the sloshing or bloating often associated with traditional liquid fuels. The result is a smooth, gut-friendly energy source that allows athletes to fuel consistently without compromising performance. |
