Hammer Gel Single

Hammer Gel’s complex carbohydrates, all-natural ingredients, and pH-balancing formula are easily digestible and provide quick-acting yet long-lasting energy in a convenient, tasty, concentrated form. The addition of branched-chain amino acids helps to prevent muscle tissue breakdown while reducing fatigue. Ingredient Breakdown: Maltodextrin – A high-glycemic index (GI) complex carbohydrate, ideal for providing fast-acting, long-lasting energy during exercise and for replenishing the body’s glycogen stores after exercise. Energy Smart® ( Rice Syrup, Grape Juice Concentrate ) – This all-natural, low-sugar sweetener plays an important role in Hammer Gel’s delicious flavor while contributing minimally to the overall carbohydrate content. Energy Smart® is certified non-GMO, gluten-free, and allergen-free. Citric Acid – Used in minimum amounts to meet FDA requirements for acidity levels. Hammer Gel contains less citric acid than comparable products. Salt – Minimally added for preservation, flavor, and digestive support. It is not a source of electrolytes (see Endurolytes® product line). L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine – The branched-chain amino acids (BCAA’s) protect against muscle tissue breakdown, while also helping alleviate fatigue. L-Alanine – This amino acid is used to help meet energy demands, particularly when the body’s carbohydrates stores are running low. Potassium Chloride – Rich source of potassium. Supplies additional chloride as well. Potassium Carbonate – Used in small amounts to regulate the acid/alkaline balance of the flavors of Hammer Gel that are a bit more on the acidic side than the alkaline side (e.g., Espresso, Chocolate) Cultured Dextrose (Used in pouches and some jugs) – FDA-approved, all-natural preservative. Potassium Sorbate (Used in some jugs) – FDA-approved preservative.
