Maurten Gel Mix 480 125g
Product information "Gel Mix 480 125g"
Maurten Gel Mix 480, containing 120 g of carbohydrates and featuring Hydrogel Technology, is designed for endurance training and competition. This flask-based fueling solution offers a new consistency, somewhere between a drink mix and a gel, and can be customised to suit individual needs.
Maurten Gel Mix 480 has been developed for long and intense periods of exertion, during which a continuous supply of energy is crucial. The pH-sensitive formula forms a hydrogel in the acidic environment of the stomach, thereby facilitating comfortable carbohydrate intake whilst exercising. The neutral base, free from flavourings, colorings or preservatives, can be customised with Maurten Additions to suit your taste. The 350 ml Gel Mix Flask makes fuelling compact and easily accessible – ideal for a running vest, hip belt or jersey pocket.

Technology
Hydrogel
Hydrogels are frequently used in the food industry, where they serve as thickening and gelling agents. A hydrogel is a biopolymer – a water-based structure with tiny pores. This three-dimensional network can absorb water, resembling a sponge in both appearance and behaviour.
Maurten has found a way to produce hydrogels using natural ingredients and has succeeded in filling them with the planet’s most effective source of energy: carbohydrates.
The hydrogel in their sports drinks consists of a combination of two ingredients:
- Alginate – extracted from the cell walls of brown seaweed
- Pectin – as found in apples, lemons, carrots and tomatoes
These two dietary fibres have been used in the food industry for decades. However, when combined under the right conditions, alginate and pectin form a pH-sensitive hydrogel.
