Competition Gel was created to optimise energy in endurance sports.
It is designed for the professional athletes and for anyone who seeks maximum performance during long physical exercise, to delay fatigue and encourage post-race recovery processes.
It is composed of sugars with slow absorption and low glycemic index, especially Isomaltulose, which contains a glucose and fructose in a 1:1 ratio and is able to maximise the energy production during an intense and long performance.
Competition contains a high dose of glucogenic amino acids, which can release glucose: BCAA, glutamine, beta-Alanine and glycine.
They boost muscle efficiency and delay fatigue during certain activities.
The presence of the Beta-Alanine amino acid fosters the formation of carnosine, which is useful for counteracting muscle acidosis and improving oxygenation.
In this regard, the big news is the presence of an important dose of concentrated red beet juice (Beet 4 Perf™) and standard nitrate (1.5%).
Several scientific studies confirm its ability to increase the availability of oxygen in muscle cells, with consequent improvement of mitochondrial function and energy efficiency.
The increase in the availability of nitric oxide results in greater reactivity to fatigue as well as severe climatic conditions, in which peripheral capillary ischemia occurs.
Glutamine is also an excellent resource for the immune system which tends to get weakened by excessive physical effort.
It seems to contribute directly to reducing intestinal permeability (leaky gut syndrome) and the disposal of nitrogen waste produced during exercise.
PACKAGING Single dose of 30 ml with blood orange flavour.
