Add taste to the Drink Mix
MAURTEN Addition is a palate reset. It is designed to give athletes the option of adding a different taste to Drink Mix 320 or 160. Repeated consumption of carbohydrate fuels — even those with a neutral flavor profile — can lead to a state of flavor fatigue. Symptoms can include a lack of motivation to maintain a planned fueling protocol, sickly or nauseous sensation, and an impaired sense of taste. For athletes impacted by flavor fatigue, the result can be reduced fueling and an energy deficit. MAURTEN Addition enables athletes to vary their fuel according to preferred taste without impacting the function of Hydrogel Technology.
Facts about MAURTEN Addition
- Additions are not fuel. Additions provide an option to add taste to MAURTEN’s otherwise neutral-tasting fuel. They can be used to add sensory variety without impacting the function of the hydrogel.
- Use MAURTEN Additions in combination with Drink Mix 160, Drink Mix 320, or Drink Mix 320 CAF 100.
- One sachet of Addition is designed to be mixed with one sachet of Drink Mix — but athletes can use more or less, adjusting to their preference.
- One sachet contains: 1.6–1.9 g carbohydrates, 7–8 calories.
- Additions are specifically designed for use with MAURTEN sports fuel based on Hydrogel Technology — the fueling platform behind some of the greatest performances in history.
What is flavor fatigue?
Long races and consistent training require regular fueling. But repeated use of the same fuel reduces appeal, even where the taste is neutral. That monotony can erode motivation and reduce carbohydrate consumption, which can lead to energy deficit and compromised performance. Flavor fatigue can restrict the athlete’s fueling strategy and cause performance to decline. MAURTEN listened to athlete feedback, acknowledged where flavor fatigue could become a imitation, and developed an athlete-first solution. Adding a MAURTEN Addition to Drink Mix is a combination designed to overcome the limitation of flavor fatigue — so that athletes can keep fueling with Hydrogel Technology.
