FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the 2:1 carbohydrate ratio?

The 2:1 ratio of glucose to fructose carbohydrates is designed to maximize carbohydrate absorption and utilization by the body, providing a more sustained and efficient energy release compared to single-source carbohydrates.

Why is sodium added to this energy bar?

Sodium is added to help replenish electrolytes lost through sweat during intense or prolonged exercise. This is crucial for maintaining fluid balance, nerve function, and preventing muscle cramps.

How many bars should I consume during exercise?

The recommended intake is typically 1-2 bars per hour of exercise. This can vary based on the intensity and duration of your activity, as well as your personal tolerance and hydration levels. It's best to experiment during training.

Can I eat this bar as a regular snack?

While it can be consumed as a snack, it is specifically formulated for performance during exercise. For everyday snacking, other food options might be more nutritionally balanced.

What is the shelf life of the energy bar?

Please refer to the expiry date printed on the packaging. Proper storage in a cool, dry place will help maintain its quality until that date.

Does this bar contain any common allergens?

The product information does not specify common allergens. It is recommended to check the packaging for a detailed ingredient list and allergen information.

What is the weight of a single bar?

Each energy nougat bar weighs 37 grams.

Troubleshooting

Bar feels too hard or stale

Ensure the bar has been stored in a cool, dry place as recommended. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures. If still hard, it may be past its prime.

Digestive discomfort during use

Introduce energy products gradually into your routine. If discomfort persists, try consuming smaller portions more frequently or consider a different type of energy supplement. Ensure adequate hydration when consuming.

Packaging is damaged upon arrival

Contact the retailer or manufacturer for a replacement if the packaging is compromised, as this could affect the product's freshness and safety.
