THE NERDY VERSION

WHAT'S ACTUALLY IN MORWOTS?

We kept MORWOTS focused on what has a clear job to do while you're riding: carbohydrate and key electrolytes. Nothing is added simply to make the ingredient list longer.

CARBOHYDRATE DELIVERY

29G. TWO TRANSPORT ROUTES.

MORWOTS combines maltodextrin and fructose, two carbohydrate sources perfectly paired for endurance nutrition. Maltodextrin supplies glucose, which is absorbed primarily through SGLT1. Fructose uses a separate transporter, GLUT5.

Using more than one intestinal carbohydrate transport pathway is a well-established approach in endurance nutrition, particularly as carbohydrate intake increases. The amount that suits you depends on the session and the rest of your nutrition plan.

Fructose GLUT5 A separate intestinal fructose transport route

ELECTROLYTES

REPLACE WHAT MATTERS. KEEP IT SIMPLE.

MORWOTS includes sodium and potassium as part of the drink mix. It is designed as during-ride fuel, not as a complete daily mineral supplement.

Fluid and electrolyte needs vary widely with the athlete, conditions, sweat rate and duration but MORWOTS has everything you need to keep you fuelled on the bike and to start recovering strong.

Na + K Sodium + potassium salts. Kept deliberately simple.

NO.

CALCIUM + MAGNESIUM

We left calcium and magnesium out deliberately to keep the formula simple and easy to digest while riding.

They are important nutrients, but for most people eating a balanced diet, they are readily available through everyday food. We couldn’t see a strong reason to add them to a during-ride carbohydrate mix when the priority is simple, effective fuelling.

NO.

HYDROGEL / GELLING AGENTS

MORWOTS does not use hydrogel or gelling agents. Conventional carbohydrate drinks remain a well-established option, and current evidence does not establish hydrogel systems as universally superior for performance or gastrointestinal tolerance.

We chose the simpler format.

DON'T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT.

These are some of the papers behind the way we think about carbohydrate delivery, mineral supplementation and hydrogel systems.
