• Amount of energy - Studies have shown that our bodies can make use of up to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour. One DRINK MIX 320 CAF 100 sachet, mixed with 500 ml of water contains 80 grams of carbohydrates.
• No added flavors - Maurten is not impressed by artificial flavors. You can tell what you're getting from the taste of their drink mixes.
• Clean - No added colorants or preservatives. The sports fuel contains only natural ingredients. Nothing more and nothing less than what’s needed.
• How does it works - When mixing DRINK MIX 320 CAF 100 with water you get a hydrogel sports drink containing a high concentration of carbohydrates and caffeine. The drink instantly converts to hydrogel in the acidity of the stomach. The hydrogel enables a smooth transportation of the drink through the stomach to the intestine where the water, salt, and carbohydrates are absorbed.
• Why Caffeine - Caffeine has been shown to promote alertness and reduce perceived effort and pain. These are properties that can be beneficial in sports performance. The DRINK MIX 320 CAF 100 can be used for building up caffeine levels – on its own or together with other caffeine sources to achieve sufficient caffeine levels during activity.

Technology

Hydrogel
Hydrogels are widely used in the food industry, often as thickeners and structurants. A hydrogel is a biopolymer- and water-based structure with very small pores. As a three-dimensional network with the ability to hold water, it looks and behaves a bit like a kitchen sponge.

At Maurten, they found a way to build hydrogels with natural food ingredients. And they have filled the structure with the most efficient source of energy around - carbohydrates.

The hydrogel of their sports drinks are built from the combination of two natural ingredients:

• Alginate - extracted from the cell walls of brown algae
• Pectin - found in apples, lemons, carrots and tomatoes, to name a few

These two dietary fibers have been used for decades within the food industry. Combined under precisely the right circumstances, alginate and pectin form a pH-sensitive hydrogel.
