SFuels ZONE 5 Gel is the smoothest Gel in the industry, and is designed to support the full spectrum of race-day intensities. The flavor-free, ZONE 5 Gel provides essential fuel for muscles, heart and brain. It incorporates a range of substrates (fuels) including C8 and C10 Medium-Chain Fatty Acids, Maltodextrin, and Fructose.
SFuels ZONE 5 Gel exclusively uses rapid gut transit carbohydrates such as Maltodextrin and Fructose while avoiding slower transit sugars like glucose. The ratio of Maltodextrin to Fructose in SFuels ZONE 5 Gel is a 2:1 ratio. This is based on the original research looking at optimum methods of Fructose-Maltodextrin co-ingestion, to raise overall carbohydrate oxidation to peak rates. SFuels ZONE 5 Gel, is not intended for daily-training usage. This helps athletes avoid the de-training effects (blunted aerobic adaptions) from day-to-day over-consumption of Fructose.
SFuels selective use of specific C8/C10 MCT fatty acids, have been demonstrated to enhance gut-transit, and the absorption of maltodextrins, making them an even more effective choice of fuel delivery during racing. MCT C8/C10 fatty acids, with carbohydrates makes for the smoothest Gel and mouthfeel in the industry.
Additionally, SFuels ZONE 5 Gel takes a 3 pronged approach to support Gut Distress and Gut Resilience during high-intensity racing.
This includes -
- Reduced carbohydrate dependency and intake will lower the known risks of high-carbohydrate consumption during endurance racing.
- The gluten-free, and sugar-alcohol-free formulation of SFuels Zone 5 Gel minimizes the triggers known to add further risk of gut distress during racing
- SFuels substrate uses select MCT fatty acids to both fuel and provide nutrition to support Gut membrane integrity, which supports Gut resilience during racing.
SFuels ZONE 5 delivers >2.5X carbohydrate load per serve, compared to 1st generation SFuels RACE+ Gel powder.
