ENDURELITE Fuel Elite - Lemon Lime
FuelElite: Endurance Athlete's Sports Drink
Elevate your endurance performance with FuelElite, the meticulously crafted sports drink designed for endurance athletes. With a strategic blend of essential ingredients backed by the latest research, FuelElite goes beyond replenishing fuel – it supports muscle health, sustains energy, and ensures optimal electrolyte balance.
Key Features:
Advanced Carbohydrate Blend: FuelElite's innovative carbohydrate blend consists of fast-acting dextrose (5.3g), complemented by fructose (5.3g) in a precise 1:1 ratio. This combination maximizes absorption through multiple intestinal transporters, preventing energy deficits and gastrointestinal distress. Additionally, 15g of Highly Branched Cyclic Dextrin (HBCD) ensures rapid gastric emptying without the gut irritation associated with maltodextrin.

BCAAs for Muscle Recovery: FuelElite incorporates Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) to facilitate muscle protein synthesis and gluconeogenesis. Scientifically proven to reduce soreness, blunt fatigue, and enhance endurance performance, BCAAs are the catalysts for effective recovery.

Electrolyte Balance: The inclusion of essential electrolytes – sodium, chloride, potassium, magnesium, and calcium – goes beyond preventing cramping. Each electrolyte plays a unique role, from promoting hydration to initiating muscle contractions. FuelElite ensures that your electrolyte balance is optimized for peak performance.

How to Use: Consume one serving of FuelElite immediately after intense training to maximize glycogen replenishment and kick-start the recovery process. For those engaging in multiple training sessions within a day, additional servings every 1 to 4 hours between bouts of training can sustain energy levels.
Ingredients Deep Dive:
Dextrose (Glucose): Dextrose, with a molecular weight of ~180, acts as the body's most utilized carbohydrate source. Its quick entry into the bloodstream ensures a rapid energy boost without compromising absorption.

Fructose: FuelElite maintains a fixed 1:1 ratio of fructose to dextrose, optimizing absorption through specific intestinal receptors. This strategic combination prevents energy deficits often associated with single-carbohydrate sources.

Highly Branched Cyclic Dextrin (HBCD): HBCD, a specialized carbohydrate, surpasses maltodextrin in benefits. Its high molecular weight (~55,000) ensures fast gastric emptying without inhibiting lipolysis, preventing stomach cramps and improving endurance.
