Manage episode 332434066 series 2971305
Hydrogel technology is making a wave in the sports nutrition scene with products like Maurten hitting the market. But what is a hydrogel? And is it beneficial to endurance performance?
Joining me on the podcast is exercise physiologist at the Australian Catholic University, Andy King. Andy co-authored the review paper on all of the research to date on hydrogels and their effect on endurance exercise performance. There is no one better suited to answer these questions for us!
In this episode we cover:
- What is a hydrogel?
- How does it work?
- Are there any negative effects of using a hydrogel compared to regular sports drinks and gels?
- What does the research to date say - Does a carbohydrate hydrogel improve exercise performance?
- Does a carbohydrate hydrogel improve gastrointestinal tolerance compared to regular sports drinks and gels?
- Is the premium price of hydrogel products worth the investment?
