Beta Fuel Gel + Nootropics

SCIENTIFICALLY FORMULATED ENERGY GEL FOR MAXIMUM PHYSICAL AND MENTAL PERFORMANCE

Designed as an ideal whole-body energy source and a world leader, our innovative Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Gel with nootropics combines a new carbohydrate ratio with Cognizin® Citicoline to enhance both the physical and mental performance of athletes.

Part of a complete range of fueling solutions including drinks and bars, our Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Gel with nootropics is optimized with a new 1:0.8 carbohydrate ratio of 40g to improve an athlete's mental and physical strength, increase carbohydrate utilization efficiency, and minimize gastrointestinal discomfort. The goal is to provide a scientifically superior fueling solution.

WHAT ARE NOOTROPICS?

Nootropics are supplements capable of improving or maintaining peak cognitive performance, such as attention, concentration, creativity, motivation, memory, etc. We have combined our innovative Beta Fuel Energy Gel with nootropics to offer endurance athletes a complete energy source, for both body and mind. Without a doubt, when physical demands are so high, the mind also needs to be at its peak.

WHY BETA FUEL DUAL SOURCE ENERGY GEL WITH NOOTROPICS IS RECOMMENDED

Endurance athletes (whose events typically last more than two hours) need to consume between 80 and 120g of carbohydrates per hour. Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Gel with nootropics provides 40g of optimized carbohydrates in a single, convenient isotonic fueling solution with minimal risk of causing gastrointestinal issues. While carbohydrates are responsible for maintaining optimal physical performance, nootropics are responsible for maintaining peak mental performance.

THE NEW 1:0.8 RATIO REPLACES THE PREVIOUS 2:1

• The 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose increases the percentage of ingested carbohydrates that are oxidized (known as efficiency) from 62% to 74% compared to the 2:1 ratio.
• Likewise, the 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose reduces symptoms of stomach bloating reported by athletes with the 2:1 ratio.

ADDITION OF COGNITIVE ENHANCEMENTS

•  250mg Cognizin® Citicoline for improved cognitive function
• 200mg Caffeine, 1g Taurine, and 200mg Theanine

THE SCIENCE BEHIND BETA FUEL HAS EVOLVED

Through our Performance Solutions team, during the research and development of the new Beta Fuel range, we have worked closely with elite athletes to deliver a scientifically superior fuel in a range of formats that allow athletes to utilize an additional 17% of carbohydrates (O'Brien et al, 2013).

• The 1:0.8 ratio improves exogenous CHO oxidation by 17% (O'Brien et al) and by 10% (O'Brien et al) compared to a 2:1 ratio.
• The 1:0.8 ratio improves optimal power output during 10 maximal sprint efforts by 3% compared to the 2:1 ratio (O'Brien et al.).
• The 1:0.8 ratio increases the percentage of ingested CHO that is oxidized (efficiency) from 62% (2:1) to 74% (1:0.8) (O'Brien et al).
• The 1:0.8 ratio reduces symptoms of stomach bloating and nausea compared to the 2:1 ratio (O'Brien et al).
