Maurten

Improved formula. Better fueling.

Drink Mix changed the game for endurance sport. Designed to help athletes consume carbohydrate liquid fuel during longer, lower intensity training and racing.

Athletes can suffer with gastrointestinal distress when consuming carbohydrate fuel during high-intensity exercise. Hydrogel Technology is the innovation that encapsulates the carbohydrates, carrying them through the stomach to be absorbed.

It’s a gut reaction.

The Drink Mix becomes a hydrogel upon contact with stomach acid, encapsulating the carbohydrates and helping to reduce the sensation of liquid sloshing in the stomach when consuming fuel during exercise.

New formula.

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.

This is the Gel.

The unique structure — firmer, not a syrup — makes the gel easy to consume during high-intensity training and racing.

Based on Hydrogel Technology and built with just 6 ingredients — no colors, no flavors, and no preservatives.

Hydrogel Technology encapsulates the carbohydrates, carrying them through the stomach to be absorbed.

Not a hydrogel, but still Maurten.

Solid 160 is Maurten’s bar — a go-to fuel source for the in-between moments. Fueling made easy.

All part of the plan.

Solid contains 40 grams of carbohydrates. Maurten’s modular fueling system makes it easy to calculate carbohydrate intake.

Break it down.

Each wrapper contains 2 mini-bars — 20 grams of carbohydrates each. Eat it all or save half.

How to mix

The Maurten bottles are not that special, but very convenient for the Drink Mix blend.

Fill to the marker and add a 160 or 320 Drink Mix for the perfect blend.

Fits standard bottle cages.

Soft flasks

Designed for easy fueling during competition.

Choose 550 ml for Drink Mix or 150 ml for Gels.

Flavor fatigue

All of us have different preferences when it comes to taste and even your personal favourite over time can become less appealing. When that happends fuel can start to feel harder than it should. Not because the body doesn’t need it, but because the same taste over and over can become too much. That’s flavor fatigue.

When fuel becomes less appealing, it’s easier to skip a gel or drink less than planned. You may even experience nausea and your body may override (or ignore) the cues that it need more fuel. That can mean less carbohydrate intake, poorer recovery, and lower performance.

Maurten Additions give you a way to add some variation while still keeping the same fueling structure and maintaining the integrity of the hydrogel.

Fuel is simple

The advantage of the Maurten Hydrogel Technology is that it encapsulates the carbohydrates, carrying them through the stomach to be absorbed. This helps prevent gastrointestinal distress during high-intensity exercise.

How much do you need?

4 kcal is the same as 1 gram of carbohydrates. That means 320 is equal to 80 grams, 100 is equal to 25 grams and so on. You can easily put together the perfect mix of Gels and Drink Mixes to for your desired grams/hour fuel plan.

A key factor to success.

What we have learned, and where Maurten stands out from all the rest, is how efficient the Hydrogel Technology is. 40-80 grams per hour is typical for marathon and Ironman competitions. With Maurten and Hydrogel, we have been able consume and utilize more than 120 grams per hour.
