An Ultra Unit is a standardized measure containing exactly 45g of carbohydrates in a 1:1 carbohydrate ratio. The Ultra Unit ensures consistency within our 6d Ultra Series, making it easy to meet individual energy needs during exercise.

Carbohydrate intakes for ultra-endurance athletes increasingly reach up to 120g per hour, surpassing the typical 90g. Achieving such high intakes with only our Sports Series can be challenging, as each Sports Unit contains just 30g of carbohydrates.

The 6d Ultra Unit, however, contains exactly 45g of carbohydrates, enabling endurance athletes to achieve carbohydrate intakes of 90g per hour in a simple and precise way, and even 120g per hour when combined with the Sports Unit.

During exercise, the absorption of glucose from the intestine into the bloodstream is limited to about 60-70g per hour, meaning that carbohydrate intakes above 90g per hour require more fructose for maximum carbohydrate absorption. Therefore, a higher-fructose ratio, such as our 1:1 carbohydrate ratio, complements the 2:1 carbohydrate ratio, offering athletes flexible options to match their specific goals. For example:

  • 2 Sports Units + 1 Ultra Unit: Results in a total of 105g carbohydrates, comprising 62.5g glucose and 42.5g fructose (= 1:0.7 carbohydrate ratio).
  • 1 Sports Unit + 2 Ultra Units: Results in a total of 120g carbohydrates, comprising 65g glucose and 55g fructose (= 1:0.8 carbohydrate ratio).

Why 75mg caffeine in caffeinated gels and chews?

Caffeine enhances endurance performance by boosting focus and delaying fatigue. The effective dose ranges between 150-300mg, depending on body weight. By strategically using our caffeinated gels and chews with 75mg caffeine, you can easily achieve and maintain your optimal caffeine dose during long endurance efforts.
