Description

Engineered with a powerful 90g of carbohydrates in each serving, it uses a 2:1 glucose to fructose ratio that mirrors the body’s optimal absorption capacity - helping you maximise energy delivery and reduce fatigue during intense activity. This formula ensures your muscles get the fuel they need, when they need it, with no added gimmicks or filler.

Whether you're deep into a long ride, halfway through a marathon, or grinding through a heavy training block, High Carb Fuel helps reduce perceived exertion so you can go harder, for longer. The balanced blend of carbs and electrolytes also supports hydration, so you’re not just powering through, but doing it efficiently. Plus, there's no need to supplement with additional sodium; the complete electrolyte profile has you covered.

It’s not just about performance, it’s also about convenience. High Carb Fuel mixes easily with water to deliver a clean, refreshing taste that goes down smoothly, even during tough efforts. Designed to be used over an hour or as a high-carb concentrate alongside water, it’s a flexible solution for endurance athletes needing fuel without compromise.

Like any performance-enhancing strategy, it pays to train your gut. Work up to the 90g per hour target with a structured intake plan, and allow your body to adapt for best results. Think of it as part of your race day prep - building your tolerance now sets you up for optimal energy when it matters most.

How does it work

High Carb Fuel uses a 2:1 glucose to fructose ratio to match how the body absorbs multiple carbohydrate sources, helping to deliver more fuel per hour without digestive stress. This method increases the rate of carb oxidation, meaning your muscles get the energy they need faster and more efficiently. Combined with balanced electrolytes, it supports optimal hydration and energy output across intense efforts.

By steadily sipping over an hour, or using it in concentrated form alongside water, you can control intake while supporting gut tolerance. When used consistently in training, your body adapts to higher carb loads, unlocking the full potential of this high-powered mix on race day.
