Glucose
As a simple sugar, glucose is easily and quickly absorbed by the body, and provides a rapid increase in blood sugar levels, supplying the necessary fuel for physical activity.
Its versatility and effectiveness make glucose the perfect base for energy gels, ensuring a quick and reliable boost of energy whenever it is needed.
Matcha + Cordyceps
Matcha, with its high antioxidant content and natural caffeine, provides a sustained boost of energy while Cordyceps, known for its adaptogenic properties, supports endurance and helps combat fatigue during physical activities. Matcha exhibits unique vibrant green particles that are rich in antioxidants and catechins. Cordyceps presents itself as elongated and branching hyphae, resembling a delicate network.
Glucose + Cordyceps + Seamoss + Matcha
The combination of glucose, cordyceps, seamoss, and matcha yields a potent and synergistic effect. Glucose acts as a readily available source of instant energy, while cordyceps and matcha contribute their adaptogenic properties, enhancing endurance and promoting focus. Seamoss adds valuable nutrients and minerals, further supporting overall well-being and providing a holistic boost to the G5 formula.
Why Do I Need G5?
What Happens To The Body During A Workout
01
02
Dehydration
Increased Fatigue
Exercising without water or G5's electrolyte replenishment can result in Dehydration. Your body loses water through sweat when you exercise. This can cause symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, and decreased performance.
Without G5's carbohydrates that provide a quick fuel source during prolonged exercise, blood sugar imbalance can cause your body to run out of glycogen stores, leading to decreased endurance and fatigue earlier in your workout.
03
Increased Muscle Soreness
G5 Performance Fuel contains electrolytes like sodium and citric acid. Without these crucial minerals to maintain proper hydration and support muscle function, increased muscle soreness and longer muscle recovery time can result.
04
Brain Fog
When engaging in intense physical activity, the body utilizes glucose as an energy source for the body as well as the brain. Without maintaining stable blood sugar levels to ensure a steady supply of glucose to your brain, the brain can decrease focus, mental alertness, and concentration.
How Have Energy Gels
Changed Over Time?
The science behind energy gels has undergone significant evolution over the years, leading to improved formulations and a better understanding of their impact on the body. Researchers have delved into the optimal ratios and types of carbohydrates to include in energy gels to maximize their effectiveness. Studies have explored the absorption rates of different carbohydrates, resulting in formulations that provide a rapid and sustained release of energy.
Furthermore, the inclusion of electrolytes in energy gels has become more common, as scientific research has highlighted their importance in maintaining proper hydration and muscle function. Advancements in sports nutrition science have also allowed for the development of energy gels with specialized features, such as caffeine-infused options for an extra mental and physical boost. As the science continues to progress, energy gels are likely to become even more refined, tailored to the specific needs and preferences of athletes and individuals seeking optimal performance and endurance.
