FAQ
Why should athletes fuel with Maurten?
Maurten's sports fuels use innovative hydrogel technology to encapsulate high concentrations of carbohydrates—perfect for energy during activity. Each product is made with only food-grade ingredients and contains no added flavours, colours, or preservatives. Just what's needed to perform, and nothing extra.
What's inside Maurten's sports fuels?
Maurten keeps it natural and clean with well-established, food-grade ingredients.
  • Drink Mixes contain maltodextrin, fructose, pectin, sodium alginate, and sodium chloride (salt).
  • Gel 100 includes water, glucose, fructose, calcium carbonate, gluconic acid, and sodium alginate.
Detailed ingredient lists can be found on each product page.
Are Maurten's products safe?
Yes—Maurten ensures that every single batch is tested by independent third-party laboratories. All of Maurten's suppliers are certified under the international FSSC 22000 food safety standard, so athletes can fuel with confidence.
Are Maurten products just for elite athletes?
Not at all! Maurten's products are made for everyone—from seasoned pros to weekend warriors. Whether the goal is a world record or a fun run, Maurten fuels performance at every level.
Are Maurten products gluten-free?
All Maurten products are made from ingredients certified as free from gluten and other common allergens. However, Solid 160 and Solid C 160 may contain trace amounts of gluten due to possible cross-contamination in the facility where they're made.
What about flavor?
Maurten intentionally avoids adding flavours or colourants. The goal is simplicity and function, not to mask taste. The subtle sweetness comes naturally from glucose and fructose.
Athletes who wish to add a bit of natural flavor can do so—but it's important to avoid ingredients with high acidity, as these can disrupt the hydrogel structure, which is key to Maurten's performance benefits.
Remember: flavor doesn't improve performance, but great fuel does.
How fast does Maurten work?
Carbohydrate absorption starts around 15–20 minutes after taking a Drink Mix or Gel. Peak blood sugar levels are typically reached within 30–45 minutes, with most carbs absorbed in 60–75 minutes.
Maurten Drink Mixes rely on a pH-sensitive reaction that takes place in the stomach's acidic environment to form the hydrogel. Drinking a large volume of neutral pH water beforehand can potentially dilute stomach acid and impact this process.
What about dental health?
Many energy products contain acids and artificial flavours that can harm teeth. Poor oral health can lead to inflammation—which may negatively impact performance.
Maurten takes a smarter approach. All products are close to pH neutral and made from natural ingredients. Since the carbohydrates are encapsulated in hydrogel, there's minimal direct contact with teeth—making it a more tooth-friendly choice.
