Product Information

Not only will you not be enjoying yourself, but you also won’t be performing your best. Gastrointestinal issues during running vary between individuals but most have experienced some form of stomach issue.

For the Beta Fuel with Nootropics Gel we recommend consuming the nootropic gel during the latter phases of your exercise and 60 minutes prior to when you’d want to benefit from the performance effect, with a maximum of one serving per day.The new SiS Beta Fuel is a performance solution for any endurance athlete that trains/competes in sessions/events over ~2 hours. About The SiS Beta Fuel Range SiS Beta Fuel works by providing these two different forms of carbohydrate which can be simultaneously absorbed. This was successfully tested by world leading associations and teams before becoming the naturally flavoured, informed sport certified product you know today. A ratio of 1:0.8 enhances exogenous CHO oxidation compared with 2:1 ratio by 17% (O’Brien et al) and 10% (O’Brien et al) The SiS Beta Fuel Gels and Chews can also be used for running, preference will come down to the individual with some people relying on gels, whilst others prefer more ‘food’ like textures, such as the chews. Examples of a 2 hour and a 4-hour fuelling strategy using Beta Fuel can be seen below. These are just examples and can be adapted depending on your expected duration, but provide a starting point.

A lot of this will come down to individuality and finding what works for you to perform at your best consistently. HOW TO USE SIS BETA FUEL AS A RUNNERUnderstanding which energy powder is right for you and suits your needs for training and competition is key to fuelling efficiently. At Science in Sport, we have three options and it’s important to understand the key differences between each of these powders so you can make the right choice for you. But firstly, why energy powder? That means for all of these distances you need to consider your fuelling strategy. Before the event it might be worth considering carbohydrate loading strategies (purposely consuming more carbohydrate in the days running up to an event), but importantly you need to consider your carbohydrate consumption during exercise, both what you will be consuming and when.

The Beta Fuel energy chews are a scientifically superior fuel source giving an optimised ratio of maltodextrin and fructose in a delicious sweet-like format. Think jelly cubes in a bar for the texture, super easy to consume with high carbohydrate content. Wallis, G.A., Rowlands, D.S., Shaw, C., Jentjens, R.L., Jeukendrup, A.E. (2005).

I always carry 2 bottles on my rides 1 x Electrolyte, and 1 Energy. Very content with these products that I have used some 14 years” – Hugo 10/02/2022 A ratio of 1:0.8 increases % of ingested CHO that was oxidised (efficiency) from 62% (2:1) to 74% (1:0.8) (O’Brien et al)I started using Beta Fuel in training (golden rule, nothing new on race day!), primarily the Beta Fuel powder. The Beta Fuel powder takes a little bit of time to dissolve fully but is then completely smooth and has a really nice consistency. I tried both flavours and personally recommend the Red Berry. POWER: A ratio of 1:0.8 enhances mean power output during 10 maximal sprint efforts increased by 3% compared with 2:1 ratio A great way of being able to access nutrition during running is using hydration vests. You can use these vests to carry water mixed with a SiS Beta Fuel Powder, in a flavour of your choice (Red Berry, Strawberry & Lime or Orange). The SiS Beta Fuel Powder also contains sodium which is key for staying hydrated.
