CAFFEINE ENERGY GEL
What is Life Pro Endurance Energy Gel used for?
Recently, due to the high energy demands in sports activities, the fundamental role of nutrition in training has been highlighted. Therefore, factors such as the contribution of carbohydrates, caffeine, and electrolytes become especially relevant. During exercise, the amount of carbohydrates consumed must meet the individual needs of each athlete.
It is important to consider that carbohydrate intake during exercise follows other carriers when consumed in large quantities. For a moderate carbohydrate intake, the use of a glucose source is sufficient. However, in sports that require a high carbohydrate content, a 2:1 combination of glucose and fructose may be optimal for increasing total carbohydrates during the session. Therefore, using fructose along with glucose can have a more beneficial effect than consuming both separately.
These gels are beneficial, as each gel provides **20g of maltodextrin** and **10g of fructose** (30g of total carbohydrates) and **200mg of sodium**, the main electrolyte lost during exercise. They have been designed taking into account the most outstanding limitations of athletes. Their consumption is facilitated thanks to their watery texture, refreshing properties, and a smooth and balanced flavor. In addition, they have an easy opening for quick and distraction-free intake. For all the above reasons, in sports that require a carbohydrate intake, these maltodextrin and fructose gels are an excellent option.

What dosage to consume?
Each individual should adjust the dosage according to their daily energy and nutritional needs.

Therefore, if you need 30 g of carbohydrates per hour, you can take the gel.
