Santa Madre Unusual Gel 45CHO 100 CAF - Neutral

Santa Madre Unusual Gel 45CHO: High-Density Energy for Extreme Performance

The Santa Madre Unusual Gel 45CHO energy gel represents an innovative solution for athletes requiring a high caloric intake during prolonged efforts. Formulated with high-energy liquid technology, this gel contains 45 grams of carbohydrates in a 1:1 ratio, optimized to maximize absorption via the GLUT5 transporter. Unlike most gels on the market, the sequential composition of four different ingredients allows for gradual absorption, reducing the risk of intestinal transporter saturation. With 241 calories per unit, it is ideal for nutritional strategies exceeding 100 g/hour of carbohydrates, ensuring effective energy supply for efforts longer than 3 hours. The integrated "Refresh" technology promotes body thermoregulation, leaving a refreshing sensation on the palate during intense exercise.

Composition and Advanced Nutritional Features

This stimulant-free gel is formulated with 100 mg of caffeine to support concentration during long competitions. The nutritional matrix includes 60 grams of total carbohydrates, 50 mg of potassium (50% NRV), and 100 mg of sodium to maintain electrolyte balance during prolonged exertion. With 24 mg of vitamin C and 23.2 mg of magnesium, the product supports critical metabolic functions during exercise. The gel is completely fat-free and protein-free, minimizing digestive load, and is certified 100% vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free, and palm oil-free. The 70 ml (80 g) format allows practical intake during activity, with an energy value of 1024 kJ per serving.

Absorption Technology and Practical Applications

The sequential formulation of Santa Madre Unusual Gel 45CHO uses an optimized carbohydrate ratio to prevent saturation of intestinal transporters, allowing more efficient absorption compared to traditional gels. This approach is particularly advantageous for athletes engaged in high-intensity endurance sports such as road cycling, trail running, and triathlon, where caloric demand exceeds normal absorption capacity. The integrated "Refresh" technology in the formulation aids the body in thermal management, reducing discomfort during prolonged efforts in adverse climatic conditions. With 154 mg of chloride and a balanced electrolyte profile, the gel supports cellular hydration and muscle contraction during competitions requiring advanced nutritional strategies and maximized energy supply.
