BICARB GEL 40 CAFFEINE Grapefruit 1:0.8

BICARB GEL 40 CAFFEINE Grapefruit 1:0.8

New

BICARB GEL 40 CAFFEINE Grapefruit 1:0.8 is our high-performance gel containing bicarbonate and caffeine – designed specifically for functionality and effectiveness. Thanks to innovative encapsulation technology, the bicarbonate is released specifically in the small intestine and absorbed into the bloodstream from there. It differs significantly from our classic GEL 40 products in both flavour and intended use. A tart citrus flavour from natural grapefruit oil combines with the salty note of the bicarbonate. Per serving, the gel provides 40 grams of rapidly available carbohydrates in a 1:0.8 ratio, 5 grams of bicarbonate and 100 mg of caffeine.

Glucose to fructose ratio

Bicarbonate as an extracellular acid buffer

With 5 grams of sodium and potassium bicarbonate per serving, this high-performance gel is ideal for loading before the start or during competition, as well as for re-loading to stabilise bicarbonate levels during intense exercise.

Bicarbonate can act as an extracellular buffer in the blood and may potentially enable higher performance during exercise lasting up to 10 minutes. BICARB GEL 40 CAFFEINE Grapefruit 1:0.8 can be combined with other products from the 1:0.8 series and is suitable for competitions and intense training sessions where a carbohydrate intake of up to 120 grams per hour is targeted.

Taste

neutral tart-salty

Natural high-performance sports nutrition

BICARB GEL 40 CAFFEINE Grapefruit 1:0.8 contains refreshing grapefruit oil, which gives it a subtle citrus note, whilst its higher bicarbonate content also gives it a slightly salty taste. The grapefruit note pleasantly masks the natural caffeine from the coffee extract. As it contains no artificial flavorings or sweeteners, it is very well tolerated. BICARB GEL 40 CAFFEINE Grapefruit 1:0.8 is gluten-free, soy-free, lactose-free and 100% vegan.

Top-Up Protocol: Once BICARB loading is complete, CAFFEINE BICARB GEL40 Grapefruit 1:0.8 can be taken during the second half of the training session to specifically maintain levels.

Gel-Only-Protocol: Without prior loading, we recommend a maximum of one BICARB GEL 40 CAFFEINE Grapefruit 1:0.8 for the point in a race or session where a mental lift and a physical buffer matter at the same time. This product can be used in combination with BICARB GEL 40 Lemon or Vanilla 1:0.8 to gradually raise bicarbonate levels for a final burst of speed or sprint. Up to 4 BICARB GELs, inclusive of one CAFFEINE BICARB GEL, can be consumed during a competition or training session to achieve a total of 20 g of bicarbonate.

A total daily dose of 6 mg of caffeine per kg of body weight should not be exceeded. Depending on additional carbohydrate intake from products in the 1:0.8 range, a carbohydrate intake of up to 120 g/h is possible.
