Research has shown that 1:1 glucose-fructose formulas release extremely high amounts of carbohydrates into the blood and exhibit some of the highest carbohydrate oxidation rates ever measured. This high-quality energy supply ultimately translates into improved endurance performance.<\/p>\n
The TORQ 1:1 Proto range consists of 3 Energy Drinks and 3 Energy Gels, with each product containing 40 grams of carbohydrates in a 1:1 glucose-fructose formula. We call these '\u2018Advanced TORQ Units<\/strong>\u2019 (ATUs<\/strong>), since our regular TORQ Units relate to our 2:1 range. To consume 120 grams of carbohydrates per hour, you only need to consume any combination of 3 ATUs.<\/p>\n The 1:1 Proto Energy Drink powders are added to 500 ml of water and provide 40 grams of carbohydrates, along with the full set of 5 electrolytes. The gels are much more concentrated and deliver the same dose of carbohydrates in a much more compact format.<\/p>\n In warmer weather, when you sweat more, you should drink more ATUs energy drink and consume fewer ATUs gel. In cooler conditions, when you sweat less, the opposite applies: you should drink less and consume more via gels. Every situation is different, and you must be prepared to adapt to the environmental conditions. Often, these conditions can change during an event, and you must adjust to maintain the balance between hydration and energy supply.<\/p>\n
