Product Information

Full details

The Amacx Turbo Chew Bar is designed for endurance athletes seeking a high-carbohydrate energy source during prolonged physical activity. Its primary benefit is providing rapid energy with a scientifically balanced glucose-to-fructose ratio, minimizing digestive discomfort. A key consideration is its specific formulation for intense efforts, meaning it's not intended as a meal replacement or for casual consumption. This package includes 12 individually wrapped 50g bars.

FAQs

What is the recommended serving size?

The bars are 50g each. For endurance events, consuming one bar per hour is a common recommendation, but this can be adjusted based on individual needs and intensity. Start with half a bar and assess your energy levels and digestive response.

How much carbohydrate is in one bar?

Each 50g bar contains a significant amount of carbohydrates due to its optimized glucose-to-fructose ratio. The specific carbohydrate content per bar is detailed on the product packaging.

Can I use these bars for weight training or strength training?

These bars are primarily designed for endurance activities requiring sustained energy. For strength training, other nutritional strategies focusing on protein and recovery might be more appropriate.

Are these bars suitable for vegetarians?

Please check the ingredient list on the product packaging for specific dietary information, as formulations can vary.

How long can I store these bars?

When stored correctly in a cool, dry place, the bars typically have a long shelf life indicated by the 'best before' date on the packaging.

What is the difference between glucose and fructose in this bar?

Glucose and fructose are simple sugars. The 1:0.8 ratio is scientifically determined to allow the body to absorb and utilize carbohydrates more efficiently during prolonged exercise compared to relying on a single type of sugar.

Troubleshooting

Bar is too hard or dry

This can occur in very cold conditions. Try warming the bar slightly in your hand or pocket before consuming. Ensure bars are stored at room temperature.

Digestive discomfort after consumption

While formulated to minimize issues, individual tolerance varies. Start with smaller portions or ensure adequate hydration. Do not exceed recommended intake frequency.

Packaging is difficult to open

The packaging is designed to maintain freshness. If difficult to open, try tearing from a corner or using a clean edge to assist.
