SUPER CARBS CONTAINS A 2:1 RATIO OF FRUCTOSE TO MALTODEXTRIN
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
RESEARCH PROVEN...
A single research study is almost worthless. Sports scientists work towards what they call consensus - where 3 or 4 good studies show the same performance benefit. They consider this to be strong evidence. The effectiveness of Super Carbs formulation has now been proven by 9 major independent studies and more than 1500 hours of rigorous testing. |

glucose and fructose during exercise. J Appl Physiol 96: 1277-1284, 2004. 00Roy L. P. G. Jentjens,1 Luke Moseley,1 Rosemary H.Waring,2 Leslie K. Harding,3 and Asker E. Jeukendrup1. Result: Peak exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates were 55% higher with fructose + glucose (2:1 ratio) as compared with glucose only.

carbohydrates ingested during exercise. Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise. 36(9):1551-1558, Jentjens, Roy L. P. G.; Achten, Juul; Jeukendrup Asker E. Result: When fructose + glucose & sucrose are ingested simultaneously at high rates, estimated endogenous carbohydrate oxidation is reduced compared to glucose.

are combined ingestion of glucose + fructose during exercise in the heat. November 10, 2005; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00322.2005 8750-7587/06. Roy L. P.G. Jentjens,1 Katie Underwood,1 Juul Achten,1 Kevin Currell,1 Christopher H. Mann,2 and Asker E. Jeukendrup1. Result: Ingestion of fructose + glucose (2:1 ratio) during exercise in the heat resulted in higher (36%) exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates and greater fluid availability compared with ingestion of glucose.

drink (High5 EnergySource) during the 8-day Trans Alp MTB race Vs. a carbohydrate only beverage (SiS Go). Andrew J. Cathcart, Scott R. Murgatroyd et.al. University of Glasgow, ICEARS, Institute of Membrane & Systems Biology, University of Leeds. Publication pending. Result: consumption of a protein drink (EnergySource 4:1) enhanced fluid retention (race temp 38 •C), reduced thermal strain and improved race performance by 10% (overall) as compared to SiS Go Electrolyte.

during ultra-endurance exercise. J Appl Physiol (Dec 1, 2005). Asker E. Jeukendrup1, Luke Moseley, Gareth I. Mainwaring, et al. Result: With fructose + glucose (2:1 ratio) cadence (rpm) was maintained, stomach fullness was reduced and there was a significantly higher peak rate of exogenous carbohydrate oxidation relative to glucose.

fructose + maltodextrin drink (High5) compared to maltodextrin based drink (SiS). Division of Exercise Sciences, Hertfordshire University. Dr. J Roberts, Dr.M Roberts, et al. Publication pending. Result: Ingestion of a fructose + glucose (2:1 ratio) drink (High5 EnergySource) resulted in greater exogenous carbohydrate oxidation (25%), greater fluid uptake (peak 40%) and a 6.15 minute (average) 60km time trial improvement, as compared to a calorie matched maltodextrin drink (SiS PSP22).

carbohydrate improves time trial performance. Study by High5 with full independent scrutiny of data collection and statistical analysis. Result: 28 club to elite time trialist caffeine (4 mg/kg/bodyweight) and carbohydrate loaded (using High5 EnergySource X’treme) 1-hour before a time trial. They completed the 25 mile/40km course 60 seconds faster (on average) as compared to using water.

comparing a 2:1 high fructose + maltodextrin drink (High5) to 4 other “traditionally formulated” sports drink over a 60km time trial. Study by High5 with full independent scrutiny of data collection and statistical analysis. Result: Ingestion of a fructose + glucose (2:1 ratio) + caffeine drink (High5 EnergySource Plus) resulted in: a 8:40 faster time trial and 39% better hydration when compared to PSP-22 (SiS), a 7.39 faster time trial and 17% better hydration when compared to Go Electrolyte (SiS), a 5:25 faster time trial and 43% better hydration when compared to Maxim and a 5:47 faster time trial and 34% better hydration when compared to Endura (Australia).
