6d Energy Fruit + Caffeine Grapefruit

Description

Product description

Besides the right sports drink also energy bars and -gels are often crucial for a quick and easily digestible energy supply during (endurance) exercise. Bars high in protein, fat and fiber slow down gastric emptying, and consequently the rate of absorption of the desired energy source (carbohydrates). Moreover, such bars are often the cause of a “full” feeling and gastrointestinal complaints.

6d ENERGY FRUIT has a very low fat, protein and fiber content and is therefore an easily digestible, carbohydrate-rich fruit bar. Thanks to its soft texture, this compact energy source is very easy to chew, even in cold weather. This makes the 6d ENERGY FRUIT an excellent option to alternate with 6d ENERGY GELS. One fruit bar contains 26g of carbohydrates in a 2:1 glucose to fructose ratio. Thanks to this 2:1 ratio the body can absorb up to 90g of carbohydrates per hour. In contrast to most other “energy gummies”, this fruit bar also contains 100 mg of sodium. The addition of sodium allows for a quick replenishment of the salt reserves in the body. This is particularly important for athletes who not only sweat a lot, but also sweat out lots of salts (“salty sweaters”), and especially during exercise in a hot environment that causes high sweat losses.

In short, the 6d ENERGY FRUIT is ideally suited for all athletes who need fast available energy and are looking for a tasty alternative for an energy gel.

Suggested use

Take 1-2 fruit bars per hour of exercise, depending on exercise duration and intensity, and the combination with other energy bars, -gels or drinks.

Due to the high concentration of carbohydrates (sugars) and sodium, it is recommended to always use the 6d ENERGY FRUIT in combination with water. This to ensure good absorption and to minimize the risk of gastrointestinal complaints during exercise.
