Maurten Drink Mix 160 is a sports drink powder designed to provide a high concentration of carbohydrates for athletes and endurance sports enthusiasts. Maurten is a Swedish sports nutrition company known for its innovative approach to fueling athletes.

The Maurten Drink Mix 160 is unique in that it utilizes a hydrogel technology to encapsulate a high amount of carbohydrates, allowing for efficient delivery of energy to the body. The hydrogel is created by mixing the powder with water, forming a gel-like substance in the stomach. This hydrogel structure enables the carbohydrates to be absorbed in the intestine at a faster rate than traditional sports drinks, without causing gastrointestinal distress.

The primary carbohydrate source in Maurten Drink Mix 160 is maltodextrin, which is derived from corn starch. Maltodextrin is a complex carbohydrate that provides a steady and sustained release of energy. Each serving of Maurten Drink Mix 160 contains 40 grams of carbohydrates, making it a highly concentrated source of energy.

Maurten Drink Mix 160 is often used by endurance athletes during training and competitions, such as marathon runners, triathletes, and cyclists. It is designed to be consumed alongside water to aid in the absorption process.
