This is slightly different from their drink mix, which requires the acidity of the stomach to form the hydrogel; the Maurten Gel 100 contains an already formed hydrogel and can be taken without water.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in 0in 12.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does it taste like?\u003c\/strong\u003e  When it comes to taste, Maurten has gotten it right. Other gels are known for being extremely sweet, syrupy and even chemical tasting. Often times the taste is so bad, it's hard to get them down without cringing or even gagging. Since Maurten gels use only a handful of natural ingredients, their gels have a mildly sweet, natural flavor that is not overpowering and goes down easy. I like to describe it as a light maple syrup or agave nectar. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom a technical perspective\u003c\/strong\u003e, traditional\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003egels\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eare water and carbohydrates simply mixed into syrups, often containing added flavors and preservatives. The GEL 100 is completely different. It’s a biopolymer matrix, filled with a unique blend of fructose and glucose (ratio of 0.8:1) which enables uptakes of up to 100 grams of carbohydrates per hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe GEL 100 is built by harnessing natural hydrogel technology and built with six natural ingredients:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWater\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGlucose\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFructose\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCalcium Carbonate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGluconic acid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSodium Alginate\u003c\/span\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt doesn’t contain any colorants or preservatives and comes in 40g servings that contain 60% carbohydrates – a high weight to energy ratio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaurten Gel does NOT need water to consume it, whereas other Gels do require that you also drink water to help digest them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaurten Gel does contain electrolytes in the form of 85g of Sodium per Gel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdam is in the Feed Kitchen for our first look at Maurten Gel 100:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cTN06TrAyVQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5yqxSSTUHG4\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo how is this \"Gel\" different?  It's packaged in a similar one-time use packet like other gels,  but that's the only thing that's the same. Its texture is more like Jello, so it's easy to take down during exercise. Unlike other gel products, Maurten Gel 100 does NOT need to be taken with water! Another bonus feature is the high glucose to fructose ratio of 0.8:1 enabling uptakes of around 100 grams of carbohydrates per hour, which is more than any other product on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSafe to say...Maurten has just created a \"game-changer\" for the gel market.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHear the Story of Maurten from its founder Olof Sköld on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/podcast.thefeed.com\/episodes\/olof-skold-co-founder-maurten\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eThe Feed Podcast\u003c\/a\u003e: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"200px\" src=\"https:\/\/player.simplecast.com\/31423946-4192-4297-9e40-ac8073a5b92f?dark=false\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" seamless=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Maurten","offers":[{"title":"Single Serving","offer_id":35488927187098,"sku":"maurten_gel_ss","price":3.9,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"Box of 12","offer_id":35488927219866,"sku":"maurten_gel_bx","price":43.2,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0446\/8467\/3178\/products\/maurten-gels-single-serving-maurten-gel-100-3981977583679.jpg?v=1596180599","url":"https:\/\/anthonysflashes-com.myshopify.com\/products\/maurten-gel-100","provider":"anthonysflashes.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
