Nduranz
Nrgy Gel 45 (Electrolyte-Free) 75 g

Nduranz Nrgy Gel 45 (Electrolyte-Free) is a high-carbohydrate energy gel designed for endurance athletes. Each 75g dose contains 45g of fast-absorbing carbohydrates and provides 180 kcal. It is intended for cyclists, runners, triathletes, and marathoners who need to replenish energy efficiently during long efforts without increasing their electrolyte intake through the gel.

Consume the gel during endurance performance—not before or after. The recommended dose is 1 to 2 gels per hour, depending on the intensity and duration of the activity, providing 45 to 90g of carbohydrates per hour. Always wash the gel down with water to support proper absorption and avoid digestive issues.

The absence of electrolytes is not a disadvantage—it is a deliberate design feature. The gel is intended for situations where you receive electrolytes from other sources, such as sports drinks or tablets. This allows you to regulate your carbohydrate and electrolyte intake independently. It is ideal for cooler weather, lower sweat rates, or when combining multiple nutritional products.

Nduranz Nrgy Gel 45 (Electrolyte-Free) uses a 1:0.8 glucose (from maltodextrin) to fructose ratio. This is critical because glucose and fructose use different transport mechanisms in the small intestine. Combining them allows for an intake of up to 90g of carbohydrates per hour, which would not be possible with glucose alone. The result is faster energy availability and better digestive tolerance.

Yes, this combination is recommended. Since the gel is electrolyte-free (0g salt), it is ideal to combine it with sports drinks, electrolyte solutions, or tablets like Nduranz Zero Drink. This combination allows you to flexibly manage both your carbohydrate and electrolyte needs based on current exertion and weather conditions.

Yes, it is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. The ingredients are water, maltodextrin (35%), fructose (27%), and the preservative potassium sorbate; no ingredients are of animal origin. The product contains no declared allergens, making it an inclusive fuel for a wide range of athletes.

No, it contains no declared allergens, including gluten, lactose, soy, or nuts. The formula is minimalist (water, maltodextrin, fructose, and potassium sorbate), making it suitable for those with food intolerances. However, always check the label if you have specific allergies.

The main difference is the electrolyte content. The 'Electrolyte-Free' version contains no sodium (0g salt), while the standard version contains electrolytes to replenish sweat losses. Both provide 45g of carbohydrates in a 1:0.8 ratio and 180 kcal. Choose 'Electrolyte-Free' when you prefer to source electrolytes elsewhere; choose the standard version if the gel is your primary source of minerals.

The gel is formulated for maximum digestive tolerance. Maltodextrin has a mild taste, and the 1:0.8 ratio creates a less sweet mixture that is gentler on the stomach than higher-sugar gels. The product does not contain citric acid. The risk of digestive distress is low, but always consume with water and gradually increase your intake, especially if new to using gels.

Consuming 2 gels per hour provides 90g of carbohydrates and 360 kcal. 90g per hour is the scientifically recommended ceiling for maximum carbohydrate oxidation. This level is appropriate for high-intensity, long-duration efforts (long cycling races, triathlons, marathons). For lower intensities, 1 gel (45g carbohydrates) per hour is sufficient.

Yes, this gel is an excellent choice for gut training—the systematic training of the digestive system to improve tolerance for high carbohydrate intake. Thanks to its easily digestible formula and proven maltodextrin/fructose ratio, you can regularly incorporate it into long training rides or runs. Gradually increasing your intake from 45g to 90g per hour helps the body adapt to higher energy demands during competition.
