Carbohydrate gels are a convenient and effective energy source for athletes, particularly in high‑intensity or extended efforts where chewing would be disruptive and the stomach benefits from minimal digestive strain. SPONSER provides a broad selection of carbohydrate‑rich liquid energy gels in many flavours, available in easy‑to‑use portion sachets or resealable tubes. They come in sweet and one salty varietiy, with or without caffeine, and also in formulations containing added amino acids.
Unlike Liquid Energy Gels, Carbo Hydrogel can be taken without drinking water afterwards, as the gel has a more liquid texture. This is particularly practical in situations where no water or drinking bottle can be carried – or in competitions where there is no time to drink at the refreshment zone. Carbo Hydrogel comes in the form of an easy-to-swallow gel containing 30 g of carbohydrates in a glucose:fructose ratio of 1:0.8. With a carb ratio of 1:0.8, the body can absorb even more energy per hour than with conventional gels without overloading the digestive system, thanks to different absorption mechanisms of the carbohydrate sources in the intestine.
