Q What carbohydrate sources does INFINIT use?
A We use a blend of three different carbohydrates in our hydration mixes — A combination of sucrose, glucose, and maltodextrin.
Dextrose and sucrose are slightly faster burning molecules and are broken down more quickly by the body for optimal absorption and quick energy.
Maltodextrin is a slower burning complex carbohydrate, which is broken down by the body in a slower more sustained fashion. This carbohydrate is not sweet, and has low osmotic pressure, which together creates a great source of easy to digest energy.
