Vilgain Energy gel

Vilgain Energy Gel combines three types of simple carbohydrates for maximum usability, electrolytes in a highly absorbable citrate form and a pure formula without artificial sweeteners and preservatives. Glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream via the GLUT5 carrier. However, if this carrier is busy, the body cannot release more glucose into the blood. That's why you'll also find dextrose and mango puree in this gel, which use the alternative transporter GLUT2 and thus bypass GLUT5 blockage. High quality carbohydrate sources from organic farming are added to the gel. When we exercise for more than 90 minutes, we lose significant amounts of sodium, potassium and magnesium through sweating. Scientific studies have repeatedly concluded that a deficiency of these electrolytes can lead to decreased performance. Therefore, it is crucial to continuously replenish electrolytes during exercise.
