The formula includes the mineral sodium (Na), in the form of sodium chloride (sea salt). Sodium is the most important electrolyte during sports activities, as it is lost the most through sweating and is essential for maintaining hydration during physical activity.

Ideal Texture: The downside of similar high-carbohydrate gels is that their texture is usually very thick and/or gritty, making them difficult to swallow and often requiring a lot of water to wash down. Crown HyperGel 45 LIQUID is a gel with a liquid texture that is easy to consume.

Professional Tips:

  • To easily exceed 60 g/hour of carbohydrates, you can combine any product from the Hyper line: HyperDrink 90, HyperGel 45, HyperBar 45, or HyperGel 30.
  • For optimal hydration, it is necessary to drink at least 400 to 600 ml during physical activity, either in the form of water or a sports drink such as Isodrink & Energy, which also provides mineral salts and additional carbohydrates.
  • If the environment is very hot and/or humid: To maintain proper hydration, in addition to the fluid intake mentioned above, an additional supply of salt is needed. It is recommended to take approximately one PRO Salt Cap every 60 minutes of physical activity.
