NUTRISPORT Carbo 18 Units Orange Energy Gels Box

What is Carbo Gel? Carbohydrates are the energy base of metabolism, because they act as a ´fuel´ during exercise while at the same time they are stored in the muscle mass in the form of glycogen to cover the energy demand of the exercise. NutriSport Carbo Gel is an easy and convenient way to carry a load of carbohydrates (glycogen), hours before a competition or long-term training, while providing vitamins and electrolytes. With 42g of carbohydrates per dose, NutriSport Carbo Gel combines in its composition: - Long chain carbohydrates, which provide energy to the body sequentially. - Isomaltulose (Palatinose TM), a sustained release disaccharide that ensures a sustained energy supply. (The combination of both carbohydrate chains will ensure a glycemic load to cope with the intensity of the exercise with energy avoiding the appearance of the dreaded ´wall´) - Sodium and potassium, electrolytes that we lose with the sweat and that are indispensable in the mechanisms of contraction and relaxation muscular and in the cardiovascular system. - Vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6, C, E), essential in the energy metabolism of carbohydrates (B1, B2, B3, B6) as well as their antioxidant role (C and E). NutriSport Carbo Gel is ideal for taking as many hours prior to exercise as the days before intense and long lasting physical exertions, thanks to its practical format will allow us to make different carbohydrate intakes during the day.
