THE NEW OPTIMIZED, WORLD-LEADING BETA FUEL IS NOW AVAILABLE IN AN EXCLUSIVE BAR
Our exclusive and delicious Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Chews are a superior, scientifically formulated energy supplement. Part of a world-leading supplement line that includes drinks and gels, they're incredibly easy to consume and provide 46 grams of carbohydrates to enhance and maintain peak performance.
WHY USE THE BETA FUEL ENERGY BAR?
As an endurance athlete who exerts their body for periods typically exceeding two hours, you should consume between 80 and 120 g of carbohydrates per hour. Our Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Gel Chews provide 46 g of fast-acting carbohydrates in convenient and tasty chews, optimized with a new ratio that increases power and improves carbohydrate absorption without causing gastrointestinal distress.
THE NEW 1:0.8 RATIO REPLACES THE 2:1 RATIO
• A 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to glucose increases the percentage of ingested carbohydrates that are oxidized (efficiency) by 62% to 74% compared to a 2:1 ratio
• A 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to glucose reduces self-reported symptoms of gastric fullness compared to a 2:1 ratio
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 bibliography) and 10% (O'Brien bibliography) 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 that are 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.)
