This tube of gel is in fact reusable after rinsing with hot water. This is our response to reducing the use of single-use plastic tubes and all those gel packaging that we unfortunately see almost everywhere on the sides of roads and trails. As other gels on the market are not resealable and there is always a little product left in them, they leak into the pockets and it sticks! Some therefore prefer to throw them away rather than soil their beautiful bags or clothes. Our gels with their truly resealable caps do not leak. There is therefore no reason to throw it into the wild.

• Brown rice syrup is a sugar produced from rice fermentation. It is an excellent alternative to sugars because it allows the body to gradually assimilate it. The flavor is sweet and its consistency resembles honey.
  
  
• Agave syrup is rich in iron, an essential trace element for the body. Iron facilitates the transport of oxygen in the blood. It is a constituent of hemoglobin contained in red blood cells which transport oxygen from the lungs to the tissues. Agave syrup strengthens bones thanks to the calcium it contains. It contains silica, which combined with calcium plays a role in preventing decalcification and osteoporosis. It contains potassium which is essential for the proper functioning of the body because it ensures the construction and maintenance of muscles, particularly the heart, as well as neurons. It has a sweetening power which is greater than that of white sugar, and its glycemic index (15) is much lower, which helps avoid insulin peaks. It is therefore particularly suitable for diabetics?
• Cherry juice, rich in vitamins and minerals, improves recovery because it increases capacity antioxidant and it reduces inflammation and lipid peroxidation. This contributes to better muscle recovery following a sporting activity.

• Pink Himalayan salt is very rich in trace elements, particularly iron, which allows good blood regeneration and improves circulation. It helps to have healthy lungs and improve respiratory functions. It helps restore blood pH (acid-base balance). It acts on gastric reflux problems.

Why consume an antioxidant energy gel ? :

The body is put under severe strain during sustained training or competition: repeated muscle contractions, inflammation of tendons, tissues and joints, production of CO2 and lactic acid… With increased risk of injury. Antioxidants are the solution!

Muscular exercise produces free radicals by consuming the oxygen present in the blood. However, these radicals attack and destroy our cells, we speak of “oxidative stress” which causes cramps in particular. The body then organizes its defense by producing antioxidants. The external supply of antioxidants is necessary when the effort is intense because oxygen consumption increases. This is the case for endurance sports in general and marathon, trail running, cycling and triathlon in particular.

When to consume an antioxidant gel ? :

We recommend consuming an energy gel on average every 45 minutes to 1 hour during a race. Depending on the intensity of the effort and your own energy needs, this may occur every 30 minutes. It is also important to drink water or an isotonic drink after consuming an energy gel to facilitate the absorption of nutrients and remove sugar from the mouth. This can quickly become disgusting and cause cavities in the long run.

Do not take gels during a race without having tried them first during training. You must evaluate during these tests, the quantity that suits you best and at what intervals. To test and give you your own opinion on our Mulebar energy gels, we have created a "discovery" pack with 2 tubes of 37g of each flavor.

This cherry gel should be consumed at the start of a race to benefit from its antioxidant effects.

We advise you to take 1 tube of gel every 45 minutes during exercise (in order to provide 30g of carbohydrates per hour for efforts of less than 3 hours) at a rate of a third of a tube every 1/4 hour. That's why we put the cap on. The gel is resealable, so you don't need to consume it all in one go. This results in too much sugar intake which can have a counterproductive effect during exercise (Hypo reaction, cotton legs...). A regular supply to your body is better than the "yo-yo effect".

Remember to hydrate regularly after each dose to remove sugar from your mouth. Allow approximately 500ml of water per hour. If you wait until you are thirsty to drink it will be too late.

In addition to regular physical activity, it is recommended to maintain a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
