What does it taste like?
Maurten Gels doesn't have any flavor, it just tastes slightly sweet. Unlike other Gels that you may be familiar with that are really more like sugary syrup, Maurten Gel is a true gel and has a consistency more like Jelly.
Do I need water with it?
No! You don't need to take water at the same time as you use a Maurten Gel as you would with regular gels. Maurten Gel has water already encapsulated in its hydrogel technology. However, you still need to drink plenty of water and electrolytes for hydration during your workouts and events.
How is it different than Maurten Drink?
It is actually the same technology as the Maurten Drink Mix but in a more portable format. Maurten Drink starts as a liquid and converts to a hydrogel when it reaches the different pH-level of your stomach. The Gel is already converted into the hydrogel in the package and goes down with ease.
How many Maurten Caffeinated Gels can I use?
We recommend that you don't use more than three caffeinated Gels per workout/day.
How do I use it to preload caffeine before a race?
If you want to preload caffeine before a race, then drink a coffee/espresso one hour prior to your event and then take 1 Maurten Caffeinated Gel as you are warming up or about to start.
The Caffeine will start working within 15 minutes, with peak effects at 45 to 90 minutes and diminishing effects after 3 hours.
