When it comes to endurance sports, maintaining energy levels throughout training and competition is crucial. The vital role of nutrition in this regard cannot be understated, and the type of fuel you choose can make a significant difference in performance and recovery.
We understand the importance of quality ingredients, which is why we use unbleached cane sugar in our products. Here's how Active Root keeps you fuelled and ready to perform at your best!
Steady Release Of Energy
One of the key benefits of unbleached cane sugar is its ability to provide a steady release of energy. Its unique 50/50 combination of glucose and fructose results in a more gradual rise in blood sugar levels when consumed, which may help sustain carbohydrate delivery to working muscles without any harmful spikes.
Easily Digestible
During intense physical activity, the body needs a quick and easily digestible energy source. Unbleached cane sugar is readily absorbed and metabolised, providing immediate energy without causing digestive discomfort. This makes it an ideal fuel for athletes who need to stay energised without upsetting their stomachs.
Enhanced Performance And Endurance
The combination of unbleached cane sugar with our staple ingredient of ginger creates an optimal balance for sustained endurance. The natural sugars provide the necessary carbohydrates to keep you fuelled, while the ginger aids digestion and helps prevent nausea. This dual-action approach ensures that you stay fuelled, with a settled stomach, allowing you to stay focused on your performance without worrying about dreaded gut bombs!
