Beta Fuel Energy Gels + Nootropics

ENERGY GEL THAT PROVIDES A PROVEN INCREASE IN PHYSICAL AND MENTAL PERFORMANCE
Designed as the world’s leading full-body energy source, our innovative Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Gel + Nootropics combines a novel carbohydrate ratio with Cognizin® citicoline to enhance physical and mental performance.
Part of a comprehensive range of energy solutions including drinks and chews, our Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Gel + Nootropics is optimised with a brand new 1:0.8 ratio of 40g of carbohydrates to enhance mental and physical power, optimise carbohydrate absorption and reduce gastrointestinal distress, offering a superior, scientifically formulated energy solution.
WHAT ARE NOOTROPICS?
Nootropics are supplements that can improve or maintain cognitive performance, such as attention, concentration, creativity, motivation, memory, and more. We've combined our innovative Beta Fuel Energy Gel with nootropics to offer endurance athletes a complete energy source for both body and mind, because mental function needs to be at its best when the body is under the most stress.
WHY USE BETA FUEL DUAL SOURCE ENERGY GEL + NOOTROPICS
As an endurance athlete (your events typically last over two hours), you need to consume between 80 and 120 g of carbohydrates per hour. Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Gel + Nootropics from Science in Sport provides an optimized dose of 40 g of carbohydrates in a single, convenient isotonic energy solution, minimizing gastrointestinal discomfort. The carbohydrates will maintain your physical performance, while the nootropics will ensure optimal mental efficiency.
THE NEW 1:0.8 RATIO REPLACES THE 2:1 RATIO
• A ratio of 1:0.8 of maltodextrin to fructose increases the percentage of ingested carbohydrates that are oxidized (efficiency) by 62% to 74% compared to a ratio of 2:1
• A 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose reduces self-reported symptoms of stomach bloating compared to a 2:1 ratio
ADDING COGNITIVE ENHANCER
• 250 mg of Cognizin® citicoline for improved cognitive function
• 200 mg of caffeine, 1 g of taurine and 200 mg of theanine
THE SCIENCE BEHIND BETA FUEL HAS EVOLVED
With the help of our Performance Solutions team, we worked closely with professional athletes to research and develop the new Beta Fuel range to offer a superior science-based supplement, offered in a range of formats that allow for 17% more carbohydrate absorption (O'Brien et al., 2013).
• A ratio of 1:0.8 improves exogenous carbohydrate (CHO) oxidation by 17% (O'Brien et al.) and 10% (O'Brien et al.) compared to a ratio of 2:1
• A ratio of 1:0.8 increases average power during 10 maximal sprint efforts by 3% compared to a ratio of 2:1 (O'Brien et al)
• A ratio of 1:0.8 increases the percentage of ingested carbohydrates oxidized (efficiency) from 62% (2:1) to 74% (1:0.8) (O'Brien et al)
• A ratio of 1:0.8 reduces feelings of fullness and nausea compared to a ratio of 2:1 (O'Brien et al)
