TORQ energy NATURAL FLAVOURED is a naturally flavoured high carbohydrate energy drink, containing no artificial sweeteners, colours or preservatives. TORQ energy NATURAL FLAVOURED has been painstakingly formulated so that it delivers TORQ's unique blend of carbohydrate and electrolytes to the working muscles through a drink that is lightly flavoured, refreshing and most importantly NATURAL.
2:1 Maltodextrin:Fructose for 40% greater carbohydrate delivery.
Maltodextrin is often referred to as a glucose polymer. A glucose polymer's molecular profile optimises the long-term energy providing properties of complex carbohydrates, without the need to consume bulky starch-rich foods. These bulky foods take a longer time to digest because they contain fibre, an important, but metabolically useless nutrient.
More available carbohydrate: Although Maltodextrin alone has been proven to be considerably more effective than Fructose in isolation, when the two are mixed in this 2:1 ratio, significantly more carbohydrate is made available for use. Studies have demonstrated that a 2:1 Maltodextin to Fructose mix caused athletes to burn 40% more carbohydrate compared with consuming maltodextrin alone. What are the benefits? Quite simply, the increased availability of carbohydrate means that you will be able to sustain a higher pace for longer using TORQ energy NATURAL FLAVOURED, making this product the most advanced formulation available to endurance athletes on the market today.
Electrolytes: TORQ energy NATURAL FLAVOURED contains Sodium, Chloride, Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium to replace the electrolytes lost through perspiration and to preserve muscle function.
Like the Torq energy NATURAL, use within 15 minutes of finishing exercise: This is the best time to get carbohydrate into your system (while enzyme activity is elevated) and solid food isn't always appealing at this time. It can also be used as a supplement to your regular nutrition during heavy training/racing periods: During exercise - it is very unlikely that you will replace all of the energy you are using during exercise, but research has proven that regular intake of a glucose polymer whilst exercising will delay the onset of fatigue: For carbohydrate loading - research has shown that if you elevate your carbohydrate intake for the days leading up to an event, you will super-charge your muscles with glycogen, enhancing your performance and extending time to exhaustion.
It is not recommended that you mix TORQ energy NATURAL FLAVOURED on its own above 9% carbohydrate or you will overdose on electrolytes, so during cooler weather you can add TORQ energy NATURAL if you want to run a higher concentration.
