One dose of Energy Drink 4:1 is adequate for two full portions of cooked pasta, supplemented with 9 g of the highest quality whey protein rich in BCAAs and essential amino acids, all with incredibly easy digestibility and usability. Energy Drink 4:1 offers a brilliant mix designed for optimal muscle regeneration and hydration. The product finds its application in the most demanding forms of multi-interval training, or endurance races lasting several days. The product is suitable for the supply of effective energy, important amino acids and hydration, both during and after exercise, or between individual intervals.

-
Opti malized ratio 2:1 = the base consists of a special form of maltodextrin containing pure glucopolymers of standardized chain length and fructose in an optimized ratio of 2:1, more information here -
Up to 50% more energy = 2:1 ratio is independently scientifically tested (Germany, Great Britain) and compared to standard energy drinks, where manufacturers recommend a maximum consumption of 60g of carbohydrates in a one-hour time period, Energy Drink allows consumption of up to 90g carbohydrates, which is 50% more energy!
-
Brief test result = up to 25% longer distance covered at the same power, 15% increase in strength and dynamics, 5 minutes and 45 seconds faster time in the 40 mile test, more information here The whey isolate WPI contained in Energy Drink 4:1 is a protein of the highest quality. The ideal protein has a PDCAAS (Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score) score of 1. However, the WPI protein contained in EnergySource 4:1 scored 1.14! In addition, it also has a high leucine content.

Optimized ratio 2:1 (glucose polymers: fructose) = the best for physically active individuals
Excellent digestibility and usability is achieved by the optimized ratio of individual components, as is natural for a physically stressed organism. The ratio of glucose polymers (maltodextrin) and fructose is optimized to 2:1, which corresponds not only to the latest scientific findings, but also to the natural system of transporting simple sugars through the wall of the small intestine and breaking them down during exercise.
For the absorption of sugars in the small intestine, there are two basic separate transport systems, for glucose it is the GLU2 transport system, which can absorb up to 60g of glucose per hour, for fructose (fruit sugar) it is the GLU5 transport system, which can absorb up to 30g of fructose per hour. Glucose and fructose are therefore the two basic natural sources of energy for a physically active organism. It is for this reason that the ratio of the two main components is optimized to 2:1 = 60g glucose : 30g fructose. Energy Drink thus enables the consumption of up to 90g of carbohydrates in one hour.
In the case of dosing Energy Drink 2-3 days before performance (carbohydrate supercompensation), the contained glucose serves to restore muscle glycogen reserves and fructose to restore reserve glycogen in the liver (up to 1/3 of reserves). The liver serves as a reserve store of energy/glycogen for individual muscles. In the case of dosing Energy Drink during exercise, both glucose and fructose serve as an external source of energy directly for the working muscles. Energy is released through so-called glycolysis, when glucose is broken down through fructose (or fructose directly) to pyruvate to produce cellular energy ATP. marketing products available on the market up to 50% more energy. The reason is the fact that these common products usually contain only glucose and its polymers as a basis, which allows for the absorption of only 60 g per hour and thus overwhelms the organism, or they contain sucrose as the main component, which contains glucose and fructose in a suboptimal 1:1 ratio , which is not ideal due to the above facts of the absorption system.
NOTE: The above principles only apply to athletes and physically active individuals for whom glucose and fruit sugar (fructose) are a natural source of energy, without unwanted side effects.
WPI - Whey protein isolate of the highest quality
The pure, crystalline whey isolate used in EnergySource 4:1 serves as a secondary source of energy, namely glucoplastic amino acids used to protect and regenerate muscle mass (converted to energy – BCAA and others). The whey isolate WPI contained in EnergySource 4:1 is the highest quality protein. The ideal protein has a PDCAAS (Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score) score of 1. However, the WPI protein contained in EnergySource 4:1 scored 1.14! In addition, it also has a high leucine content.

Packaging: 1.6 kg
Dosage: One dose = 47 g (2 x 23.5 g measuring cup, or 1 x disposable bag).
1/ During the performance: Dissolve a dose of 47 g in 500 ml of water, shake. Sip during exercise, approximately 250ml every 20 minutes (max consume 1-2 servings within one hour).
