It is a triphasic sugar blend for a quick energy boost (after 10min), but it also has a long-lasting effect. With natural caffeine to increase physical and mental energy. With alcohol for better absorption of sugars. The main fuel for prolonged and intense endurance events is carbohydrates and therefore the amount of carbohydrates that is stored in the body is one of the main determinants of performance. As such, it is important that carbohydrate stores are maximized prior to resistance exercise and that during prolonged exercise where these can be depleted, additional carbohydrate is consumed to maintain performance and prevent fatigue.

Consuming carbohydrates will help maintain blood glucose levels and replenish muscle glycogen. If no carbohydrates are consumed, muscle glycogen will be depleted after approx. 90 minutes of exercise and severe fatigue may appear. The amount of carbohydrates you should take during exercise will depend on the length of your training or competition. Exercises <1h: it is not necessary to consume carbohydrates during the exercise Exercises 1-2h: 30 g of carbohydrates per hour of exercise (1 energy gel) Exercises 2-3h: 60 g of carbohydrates per hour of exercise (2 energy gels)

Ginseng & Guarana Energy Gel contains a unique sugar blend consisting of high-speed sugars (glucose and maltose), semi-slow sugars (sucrose), and slow sugars (complex sugars). This is what we call the Triple Action Effect (triphasic sugars) that offers a fast charge of energy, and also provides energy in a more sustained way for a long period of time. Additionally, glucose and fructose use different transport systems when absorbed into the body. This means that in total more carbohydrates can enter the bloodstream simultaneously when glucose and fructose are consumed together compared to when only one of the two sugars is consumed.

The Energy Gel is a high concentrate in the form of sugar, which translates into large amounts of fuel. To get the same amount of carbohydrates in an energy drink, you would have to drink large amounts of fluids that increase the likelihood of gastrointestinal upset. It also does not contain added nutrients such as protein or fat that can slow stomach emptying. And not only that, but also the Etixx Ginseng & Guarana Energy Gel will be ideal for those key moments, when it really matters and you need an extra boost.

It provides us with extra energy as a result of the unique combination of sugars and a true mental and physical boost from Ginseng and Guarana.
