Torq Energy Drink 1.5KG – Blackcurrant

Multiple Transportable CarbohydratesPart of the Torq Fuelling SystemContains 5 key electrolytesLight & refreshing tasteIsotonic profileTORQ energy provides 30 grams of multiple-transportable carbohydrates (1 TORQ Unit) per 500ml and whilst offering an optimal source of fuel, this product will also supply fluid and electrolytes to maintain the body€™s hydration requirements and homeostatic balance. The Torq Fuelling System suggests consuming 2-3 TORQ Units per hour by taking on board TORQ Energy along with the other more concentrated TORQ Units displayed in the table below. The higher your perspiration rates, the more TORQ Energy you will need relative to TORQ€™s other fuelling products. Again, this interaction between TORQ€™s fuelling products is explained fully HERE and we also discuss this in more detail later on this page.Product UsageThe TORQ Fuelling System works alongside TORQ€™s other fuelling products (Torq Gel, Torq Bar and Torq Chew). TORQ Energy is suitable for use at all exercise intensities and is the foundation of the TORQ Fuelling system, because it€™s the only product that will deliver significant amounts of fluid and electrolytes along with carbohydrate fuel. Adequate hydration is of course fundamentally vital from a performance perspective.TORQ Energy is available in single use sachets, to be added to 500ml of water, 500g tubs (makes 17 X 500ml) or 1.5Kg pouches (makes 50 X 500ml). Both the tubs and pouches are supplied with a scoop and the prescribed dose is 1 level scoop per 250ml of water (2 scoops for 500ml, 3 scoops for 750ml and 4 scoops for 1 litre).Technical InformationMultiple-Transportable Carbohydrates: TORQ Energy utilises a 2:1 blend of glucose-derivatives and fructose founded on a now substantial body of peer-reviewed published research (see bottom of this page for details). The carbohydrate sources for TORQ Energy come from an extremely low osmolality maize-derived maltodextrin (a long chain glucose derivative) and fructose. This dual-delivery carbohydrate formulation has been proven beyond doubt to supply energy faster than any other combination of carbohydrates or single carbohydrate source formulations. Take a look at the two very short movie clips below, which demonstrate how 2:1 Glucose-Derivatives:Fructose deliver over 40% more carbohydrate to the blood per hour than single glucose sources (the next best option).Immune SupportThe research is clear, fuelling with carbohydrate and ensuring that you consume a Recovery Drink immediately after exercise will not only boost performance and assist in the overall recovery process, but it will also support your immune system, leaving you less vulnerable to infection.According to research by Gleeson and Bishop (2000) carbohydrate becomes an important fuel for the immune system cells which can increase tenfold during and post exercise when compared with resting conditions. These immune system cells are boosted by the body to help immunity at this vulnerable time and Carbohydrate supports their effectiveness. Also, according to Cupps and Fauci (1982) cortisol, a stress hormone that is linked to immunosuppression, is inhibited by the presence of Carbohydrate.Ed Burke (2002) dedicates 2 pages of his book €˜Serious Cycling€™ to the role that fuelling with carbohydrate during exercise plays in strengthening the immune system. Talking of researcher Dr Nieman, he says:€œOur research shows that sports drinks not only provide carbohydrate energy during exercise, but support the link between sports drinks and less stress on the immune system. Carbohydrate drinks of about 6 to 10% carbohydrate (TORQ Energy Drink is within this range) will not eliminate the stress of cycling, but our research and work of others show they can reduce the increase of several by-products of stress and hard exercise.€In cooler conditions, when drinking an energy drink is less desirable, as our Feulling System suggests, carbohydrate can be delivered in more appropriate concentrated forms like our Energy Gels, Energy Bars and Energy Chews.All of this points to ensuring that you maintain good fuelling practices and that you feed immediately with Carbohydrate immediately after exercise. Torq Recovery Drink provides this carbohydrate, along with a potent dose of Glutamine, which has also been found to assist and support the immune system following exercise.Nutritional Information for all flavours of TORQ Energy Drink are supplied under this tab.Natural Blackcurrant FlavourTested Under ISO 17025 for the presence of prohibited substances.Ingredients: Maltodextrin (Glucose Polymers 60%), Fructose (30%), Citric Acid, Natural Flavouring (2%), Electrolytes (Sodium Chloride, Calcium Lactate, Potassium Chloride, Magnesium Carbonate).per 500mlper 750mlper 1000mlper 100gEnergy (kJ)50075010001522Energy (Kcal)120180240365Fat (g)0000of which saturates (g)0000Carbohydrates (g)30456091of which sugars (g)10152030Fibre (g)0000Protein (g)0000Sodium (mg)275413550n/aChloride (mg)470706941n/aPotassium (mg)6596127n/aCalcium (mg)253850n/aMagnesium (mg)6912n/aAllergy Information: There are no nuts in this recipe and the product is packed in a nut-free environment, however we cannot guarantee that nuts are not handled by staff or visitors on the factory premises.
