The key difference in the new SiS Beta Fuel range is the change in the ratio of maltodextrin to fructose, previously being 2:1 and now moving to 1:0.8. In comparison to the 2:1 ratio, the 1:0.8 ratio has now been proven to: A ratio of 1:0.8 enhances mean power output during 10 maximal sprint efforts by 3% compared with 2:1 ratio (O’Brien et al) Because there’s such a plethora of energy products available, try a few and see how they sit with you. “Once you find something you like, I’d suggest training with it consistently. This will help your body adapt to its usage and lessen the risk of digestive issues at critical moments.” How We Test A 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose reduces self-reported symptoms of stomach fullness when compared with a ratio of 2:1

A ratio of 1:0.8 enhances exogenous CHO oxidation compared with 2:1 ratio by 17% (O’Brien et al) and 10% (O’Brien et al) Knott, V., de la Salle, S., Choueiry, J., Impey, D., Smith, D., Smith, M., …& Labelle, A.

The Beta Fuel Energy Chews are a brilliant fuelling option for high-intensity riding. The texture is a nice bridge between a gel and a bar, they pair well with the other Beta Fuel products, and they're easy to wolf down between efforts. The new range of Beta Fuel products has an optimised ratio of maltodextrin to fructose. Our previous version used a ratio of 2:1, whilst the new range is 1:0.8. The new Beta Fuel range has a change in the ratio of maltodextrin to fructose to 1:0.8. In comparison to the (still highly scientifically impressive) 2:1 ratio, the 1:0.8 ratio has been proven to: So, in 2018, SiS Beta Fuel was developed to enable us to increase carbohydrate oxidation to more than 60 grams per hour and to achieve that, we combined another form of carbohydrate, which has a different transporter, fructose. Because fructose has a different transporter than glucose, a dual source formulation allows for greater carbohydrate delivery to our muscles during exercise, therefore increasing how much carbohydrate we can use. Designed as a world-leading, whole body energy source, our innovative Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Gel + Nootropics combines a new ratio of carbohydrate with Cognizin® Citicoline to improve both your physical and mental performance.

A ratio of 1:0.8 increases % of ingested CHO that was oxidised (efficiency) from 62% (2:1) to 74% (1:0.8) (O’Brien et al) The SiS Beta Fuel Gel with Nootropics is available in Apple and Lemon and Lime flavours. For optimal results we recommend consuming the Nootropic Gel during the latter phases of your exercise with a maximum of one serving per day. It is suggested that during endurance exercise 80-120 g of carbohydrate per hour should be consumed to maintain blood glucose levels and prevent fatigue. Jeukendrup A.E. Carbohydrate feeding during exercise. Eur. J. Sport Sci. 2008;8:77–86. doi: 10.1080/17461390801918971.Whether your goal is to improve your endurance capacity, get leaner or build strength, we can support you in achieving your goals. Let’s start the night before and ensure your glycogen stores are topped up. After dinner, I drink one serving of Maurten 320 Mix or two servings of Enervit IsoCarb.

Designed for endurance athletes who strive for peak performance, Beta Fuel Energy Chews are the ultimate fueling solution to help you achieve your goals. These chewable energy bars provide a world-leading and scientifically optimized source of fuel, ensuring you have the energy and stamina to go the distance. It takes around 500g of carbohydrate to fill your glycogen stores and, at most, this will last you for 60-90 minutes of running at 55-75 percent of your maximal heart rate,' explains leading sports dietician Renee McGregor. 'The faster you go, the sooner your stores will deplete.' Science in Sport Beta Fuel is leading a revolution in endurance fuelling by using both maltodextrin and fructose to optimise carbohydrate delivery and utilisation during exercise whilst minimising gastrointestinal issues. The combination of maltodextrin and fructose used in SiS Beta Fuel at a ratio of 1:0.8 provides a formula to enhance carbohydrate delivery and utilisation during exercise, whilst minimising gastrointestinal issues.Start of workout I’ll take 1 Caffeinated Gel ( Maurten 100 Caf 100 or SiS Go Energy + Caffeine). This is more for when I’m racing, but if it is a big all out effort, you should follow the same strategy as if it was race day. I have been testing out the new range of BETA Fuel energy products from UK brand Science in Sport. They are tasty, easy to take onboard, and a notable scientific development over their predecessors and many other energy products on the market. Here's the low-down… Through our Performance Solutions team, we have worked closely with elite athletes in the research and development of the new Beta Fuel range to bring you a scientifically superior fuel in a range of formats that allow you to use +17% more carbohydrate (O’Brien et al, 2013). The new SiS Beta Fuel powder solution will contain 80g of carbohydrate at this 1:0.8 ratio, in a neutral pH formula still maintaining the signature isotonic format to minimise gastrointestinal issues.

The longer we run for, the more we need to focus on fuelling strategies. Under fuelling and dehydration will ultimately lead to ‘hitting a wall’, where putting one foot in front of the other suddenly becomes a tremendous task. BETA Fuel DrinkFirst launched in 2018, the original Science in Sport Beta Fuel drink was an isotonic product using both maltodextrin and fructose at a ratio of 2:1 to optimise carbohydrate delivery and utilisation during exercise, while minimising gastrointestinal issues. I like to alternate between gels and chews every 20 minutes. With a high-carb fueling strategy, you are eating a lot, and swapping between gels and chews helps.The best energy drinks, gels and chews are made up of easy-to-digest carbs. They’re designed to enter your system and fire you up stat, allowing you to finish your endurance activity pumped full of endorphins. Which Supplements Give You The Most Energy? O’Brien, W.

It is suggested that during endurance exercise (more than 2-2.5 hours) 80-120 grams of carbohydrate per hour should be consumed to maintain blood glucose levels and prevent fatigue.
