High Carb Fuel is a power-packed drink mix specially designed for high-intensity efforts, offering a higher carbohydrate content to maximize your energy per sip.

This drink mix is meant to keep you hydrated and fueled throughout your toughest efforts. For best performance, train to absorb higher rates of carbs. Mix one pouch with 475-710ml (16-24oz) water to taste. Sip over one hour to fuel or use as a concentrate along with additional water.

Carbohydrates provide energy. When done properly, taking in 90+ grams of carbs per hour can deliver increased energy, reduce perceived exertion, and lower markers of muscle damage, allowing you to push harder for longer. The typical limit for carbohydrate absorption without training your gut is around 60g per hour. To avoid GI distress, it is recommended to slowly increase your carbohydrate intake over several weeks. Train with High Carb Fuel during high-intensity training sessions and workouts that mimic the event you are training for. For lighter or recovery workouts, use Rapid Hydration or Endurance Fuel.

High Carb Fuel contains dextrose (glucose), maltodextrin, and fructose. Dextrose and fructose are simple sugars which absorb quickly, while maltodextrin provides additional glucose and minimizes sweetness. This formula provides a pleasant flavor profile and mixes easily in water. Tailwind High Carb Fuel contains 680mg of sodium per serving, which should be enough even for heavy sweaters. It is recommended to increase water intake before adding more electrolytes to maintain the balance between water and electrolytes in your bloodstream. High Carb Fuel is meant to be a complete source for energy, electrolytes, and calories. Since High Carb Fuel maximizes absorption via the glucose and fructose transports, adding gels or other drink mixes to your fueling program increases the risk of GI distress from incomplete absorption.
