If you are a runner, cyclist, or triathlete, the energy gel 4Energy is made just for you.
"4Energy gives me fast energy and doesn't need water."
Mitja Krevs, Slovene 10 km National Champion
Quick source of energy
The energy gel 4Energy is based on maltodextrin, a less sweet complex carbohydrate, and fructose.
It is a combination of two types of sugars, which together have much higher absorption than a single type of sugar. Why? Because this way they make use of both carbohydrate transporters in the body.
This also relieves the digestive tract, which drastically reduces chance of digestive issues.
• Quick energy access ✔️
• High absorption level ✔️
• No digestive issues ✔️
This is the energy gel 4Energy.
"I don't like gels that stick in your mouth. 4Energy is liquid and refreshing."
Matej Lovše, 3x Amateur Cycling World Champion
No digestive issues
Perhaps you have already tried a gel and ended up hurting your digestion. We understand. That's why we have created the energy gel 4Energy.
Digestive issues are the most annoying consequence of many dietary supplements, especially energy gel, which are full of artificial sweeteners, glucose syrup, and with only a single type of carbohydrates.
The energy gel 4Energy doesn't cause digestive issues!
• Two types of carbohydrates ✔️
• No artificial sweeteners ✔️
• No magnesium ✔️
We had been waiting for a long time for an energy gel we could consume without fear. The wait was pointless. That's why we took control and created the energy gel 4Energy.
This is a gel you can trust.
"My needs are diverse, so I need efficient solutions. That's 4Energy gel."
Miran Bole, Italian locomotive
No water needed
One of the main benefits of an energy gel is its practicality. Full pockets of gels = plenty of energy.
Well, in theory. In practice, you need liters of water to wash down all the artificial sweeteners.
The energy gel 4Energy doesnt need water to be used!
This means you can take care of your energy intake as intended. Practical and efficient.
"A lipstick in my bag? No. But there's always a few 4Energy gels."
Paola Borović, multiple Croatioan triple jump national champion

"Effective, tasty, extremely drinkable. What else can I say?"
Tim Gošnjak, winner of Ironman Poreč 2022
Two types of carbohydrates
Glucose and fructose
Your body can absorb 60 grams of glucose and 30 grams of fructose per hour. If you use only one source of carbs, your upper limit is 60 grams per hour, and a higher intake leads to digestive issues.
A combination of glucose and fructose enables the use of both carbohydrate transporters in the body, which increases absorption to 90 grams per hour without digestive issues.
Maltodextrin
There's a lot of talk about maltodextrin lately. Maybe you wonder why it's become so popular.
Maltodextrin is composed by glucose molecules, but it has lower concentration (osmolarity), which alleviates digestion. In comparison to glucose, it has better absorption and a less sweet taste in the mouth.
Furthermore, maltodextrin has an extremely high glycemic index, which is a huge benefit during intense exercise when you want your body to use as quickly as possible an external source of energy instead of its own glycogen stores.
Maltodextrin benefits:
• quick and efficient absorption ❗
• less sweet taste for better drinkability ❗
• doesn't cause stomach discomfort ❗
Regarding sugar intake, that is energy intake, maltodextrin is the best option. It is especially useful in combination with fructose, as it neutralizes its naturally sweet flavor.
Comparison of sugars
Maltodextrin is the best source of energy
This chart compares the increase in blood sugar levels after consumption of sucrose, glucose, maltodextrin, and isomaltulose.
As you can see, maltodextrin provides the highest spike in blood sugar levels, which translates into the quickest and highest absorption of energy.
