Drink Mix 320 is a high-carb sports fuel that uses Hydrogel Technology. Designed to help athletes consume carbohydrate liquid fuel during high-intensity training and racing, Drink Mix 320 contains 80 grams of carbohydrates when dissolved in 500ml of water.
Adding carbs to your water is a great way to hydrate and ensure a regular, quick release of carbs to fuel your muscles.
Liquid in the bottle, hydrogel in the stomach Unlike other sports drinks, Maurten Drink Mix is based on Hydrogel Technology. It transforms from a liquid to a gel upon contact with stomach acid. Once in the stomach, Drink Mix behaves like Maurten gels, encapsulating the carbohydrates in hydrogel and moving them quickly into the intestines to be absorbed as fuel. This enables athletes to consume more carbs with less risk of gastrointestinal distress.
The hydrogel also reduces the sensation of liquid sloshing or bouncing in the stomach — making it more comfortable to consume liquid fuel during high-intensity exercise
More reliable mixing means the Drink Mix 320 powder dissolves faster with less clumping.
Improved, lower viscosity — Drink Mix is now less thick, making it easier for athletes to consume more carbohydrates during training or racing.
Drink Mix now contains a minimal amount of sodium bicarbonate. Many sports drinks are acidic, which can harm teeth enamel. The sodium bicarbonate in Drink Mix helps to maintain a neutral pH (not lower than pH6).
Improved tolerance to higher levels of calcium in water — up to 80 mg calcium/L. The viscosity of Drink Mix stays the same even when mixing with harder, high-calcium water. This means more reliable fueling with Drink Mix even when traveling to races and using unfamiliar water sources.
