Maurten Gel 160
Maurten revolutionized sports nutrition with its Hydrogel Technology. Top athletes covet the Gel 100, but they wanted a bit more.
Now, Maurten offers an even higher-carb option with the Gel 160 – a 40 g serving of energy utilizing the same Hydrogel Technology.
Gel 160 is a bigger hydrogel option – encapsulating 40 grams of carbohydrates in each serving.
The same proven technology built with just 6 natural ingredients — no added colors, preservatives or flavors. For athletes who want more energy in each gel, this is for you.
Not The Typical Gel
From a technical perspective, traditional gels are made by mixing water and carbohydrates into syrups, often with added flavors and preservatives.
The Gel 160 is completely different. It’s a biopolymer matrix filled with a unique blend of fructose and glucose (ratio of 0.8:1), which, as we often discuss, enables the uptake of much more carbohydrates.
Maurten has created a gel that utilizes its unique Hydrogel Technology, which encapsulates carbohydrates and facilitates smooth transportation into the intestine, where water, salt and carbohydrates are absorbed.
This is slightly different from the Maurten Drink Mix, which requires the acidity of the stomach to form the hydrogel. Maurten Gel 160 contains a pre-formed hydrogel and can be taken without water.
Gel 100 vs Gel 160
Gel 100 and Gel 160 use the same patented Maurten Hydrogel Technology with the same ratio of fructose and glucose – 0.8:1.
Gel 100 has 25 grams of carbohydrates, and Gel 160 has 40 grams.
Gel 160 is well-suited to longer endurance races and sessions where fueling opportunities are less frequent. The larger format allows athletes to carry fewer sachets while still benefiting from the same proven hydrogel performance.
How to Use Maurten Gel 160
Use the Gel 160 as you would the Gel 100 (or other Maurten products). With 40 g of carbs each, you can consume 2 per hour to reach 80 g/hr of carbs.
Gel 160 and Gel 100 can be used interchangeably to fine-tune your fueling strategy.
Don’t gamble with your gut – be certain with Hydrogel Technology.
