Vilgain Energy Gel - Carbohydrate Gel - 40g

A fast source of energy and electrolytes, combining two rapidly absorbed carbohydrates, for long-lasting, lower-intensity activities

Why choose Vilgain Energy Gel? Vilgain combines three types of simple carbohydrates for maximum bioavailability, electrolytes in a highly absorbable citrate form, and a pure formula free of artificial sweeteners or preservatives. Energy gels are suitable for intense activities lasting about 1–2 hours or longer. For optimal energy intake, we recommend consuming about 30 g of carbohydrates per hour, which is equivalent to one gel every 45 minutes during the activity. 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 in these electrolytes can lead to a decline in performance. Therefore, it is important to continuously replenish electrolytes during exercise.
