How Maurten Works

Hydrogel Technology

By utilizing a unique hydrogel technology, Maurten has almost entirely eliminated sugar-related GI distress. Rather than sloshing around in your stomach, Maurten's hydrogel encapsulates carbs to transport them to the small intestine, where they can be properly absorbed.

Twice the Energy

Before Maurten, it was thought that the upper limit of carbohydrate intake was around 60 grams per hour. With hydrogel technology, Maurten gels and drink mixes allow athletes to absorb nearly twice as many carbs as previously thought possible. Athletes shattering world records are consuming over 100g of carbs per hour.

Only what you need to perform

Artificial flavors, colors, and preservatives do little to help performance and can lead to flavor fatigue over a long race or training session. Maurten products contain no artificial flavors or colors, and only include what's needed to perform.

Go Faster for Longer

Performance

Athletes have always struggled to find the perfect way to fuel training and racing. While it's long been known that carbs are critical to performance, it's been tough to consume enough carbs without suffering from GI distress. Maurten has solved this issue with their unique hydrogel drink mix and gels which have quickly gained the trust of professional and amateur athletes. The list of athletes that have used Maurten for world records, PR's and Tour de France stage wins is long and always growing.

Benefits

Used by Kipchoge to break the 2-hour marathon world record
Used by more than 10 teams in the 2021 Tour de France
Used by the winners of the NYC, London, Berlin, Tokyo, and Chicago Marathons

A Bottle of Pure Energy

Drink Mix

Maurten drink mix is different than any other drink mix you have tried. The unique pH-sensitive formulation mixes with 500ml of water and contains no added colors, flavors or preservatives. When consumed, the acidity of your stomach turns the liquid into a hydrogel, enabling faster gastric emptying and higher carbohydrate intake without any GI distress. Available with either 40g or 80g of carbohydrates, Maurten drink mix can be used to fuel all of your workouts.

Benefits

Consume 80g of carbs per hour with 1 bottle
No GI distress
No flavor fatigue

The First True "Gel"

GEL 100

Similar to Maurten's drink mixes, GEL 100 utilizes their hydrogel technology in order to transport carbs into the small intestine, where they're absorbed. Unlike the drink mix which requires acidity of the stomach, GEL 100 contains a pre-formed hydrogel allowing it to be consumed without water. A favorite of runners, GEL 100 allows you to easily consume 25g of carbohydrates with each packet. Consume 80g+ of carbs per hour when combined with multiple GELS or with Maurten 160 or 320 drink mix,.

Benefits

A true Gel, like Jello, not a sticky syrup
Available with or without caffeine
No water required

The Proven Performance Booster

Caffeine

Caffeine is one of the most popular (and legal) performance boosters used across almost all sports. Caffeine can increase the strength of muscle contractions, lower perceived effort, and ward off mental and physical fatigue to name just a few of its benefits. Maurten's hydrogel encapsulates both the caffeine and carbohydrates so you get a GEL with low bitterness, low sweetness, and an effective level of carbs and caffeine to boost energy and endurance.

Benefits

Proven effective dosage at 100mg of Caffeine
Great Pre-Workout for fast, intense events
Combine with Ketones for maximum performance advantage.

How Maurten Works

By the 1960's, scientists realized that drinking carbohydrates during exercise increased performance. The issue is that our stomachs don't cope well with simple sugars which can lead to GI distress.

Maurten launched a new type of sports fuel by utilizing hydrogels. Hydrogels have been used in the food industry for years, often as thickeners. Maurten found a way to build hydrogels with natural food ingredients and then figured out how to fill these three-dimensional structures with our body's preferred fuel source, carbohydrates.

By combining Alginate (a component of the cell walls from brown algae) and Pectin (a dietary fiber present in many fruits and vegetables), Maurten has created a pH-sensitive hydrogel which acts as a vehicle for carbohydrates. This enables a smooth transport of carbohydrates to the small intestine where they can be absorbed and utilized by working muscles.

With the use of hydrogel's, Maurten has increased the amount of carbs you can consume, reduced the risk of GI distress, and removed all unnecessary ingredients that don't positively impact your performance.

No artificial flavors, colors, preservatives or additives
Contains only what your body needs to perform
Formulated with natural ingredients
Allows you to consume nearly 2x the amount of carbs previously thought possible
Used for many PR's, Tour de France stage wins and Marathon records

Maurten has no flavors or colors. Most athletes refer to the mildly sweet flavor as being close to maple or agave syrup and find that it's not overpowering and exceptionally easy to consume.

What makes Maurten different from other cheaper products?

Every Maurten product utilizes their hydrogel matrix. Unique to Maurten, this technology allows you to consume higher amounts of carbs per hour with a far lower risk of GI distress and upset stomach. Don't just trust us, trust the countless professional athletes who have used Maurten for their career bests.

Are Maurten products safe to use?

Are Maurten Products only for high level athletes?
