This Mulebar apple antioxidant gel has been specially designed to support muscular activity during training and racing.

With its 114Kcal per 37g tube, it will give you all the muscular energy you need for your sporting activity. Made from 100% natural ingredients, it contains no preservatives or colourings. So there's no risk of stomach problems during exercise.

Its liquid texture makes it easy to absorb, especially during exercise when the mouth is very dry. However, it is advisable to consume it in several doses (which is possible with its resealable cap) and to drink water immediately afterwards to remove the sugar from the mouth.

Here are the ingredients benefits in Mulebar cherry antioxidant energy gel :

  • Brown rice syrup is a sugar produced by fermenting rice. It is an excellent alternative to sugars because it allows the body to assimilate them gradually. It has a mild flavour and a honey-like consistency.

  • Agave syrup is rich in iron, an essential trace element for the body. Iron facilitates the transport of oxygen in the blood. It is a constituent of the haemoglobin in red blood cells, which carry oxygen from the lungs to the tissues. Agave syrup strengthens bones thanks to the calcium it contains. It contains silica, which together with calcium plays a role in preventing decalcification and osteoporosis. It contains potassium, which is essential for the body to function properly, helping to build and maintain muscles, particularly the heart, and neurons. It has a higher sweetening power than white sugar, and its glycaemic index (15) is much lower, helping to avoid insulin spikes. It is therefore particularly suitable for diabetics.

  • Apple juice is rich in antioxidants (mainly quercetin and polyphenols, which help combat cardiovascular disease and reduce blood cholesterol levels). It also contains a large number of vitamins: A, B1 and B2, C and PP. These are involved in carbohydrate metabolism, the nervous system and energy production. Potassium contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system, normal muscle function and the maintenance of normal blood pressure. Vitamin C contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and reduces fatigue. It is also involved in the normal formation of collagen, to ensure the normal function of teeth, bones, cartilage, blood vessels and skin.

  • Cinnamon has antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It is mainly used to stimulate the immune system, relieve digestive problems and provide a natural treatment for type 2 diabetes.

  • Himalayan pink salt is very rich in trace elements, particularly iron, which promotes blood regeneration and improves circulation. It helps to maintain healthy lungs and improve respiratory function. It helps to restore blood pH (acid-base balance). It acts on gastric reflux problems.

How many energy gels for a marathon ?

For a half-marathon or marathon, we recommend consuming an energy gel every 45 minutes to 1 hour on average during the race. Depending on the intensity of the effort and your own energy requirements, the frequency could be every 30 minutes. It's also important to drink water or an isotonic drink after consuming an energy gel to facilitate nutrient absorption and remove sugar from the mouth. It can quickly become nauseating.

Some brands, such as Overstims, offer a marathon pack containing several products: energy cake, pre-, during- and post-run drinks and up to 8 energy gels. That's far too much... But it's worth it !

Don't take any gels on a race without first trying them out in training. During these tests, you need to assess how much is right for you and at what intervals.
