The Torq Energy Gels have been formulated with research-proven 2:1 Maltodextrin: Fructose multiple-transportable carbohydrates for extremely fast carbohydrate delivery.Optimal carbohydrate blend (2:1 Maltodextrin:Fructose)Contains all 5 electrolytesNatural flavoursLight textureNo colours or artificial sweetenersMaltodextrin is the best carbohydrate to use in isolation, but what happens if you mix Maltodextrin with Fructose Unlike Maltodextrin and Glucose, which compete with each other for absorption, Maltodextrin and Fructose are absorbed in parallel, so you get the ultra-fast energy supply from Maltodextrin, plus the slower energy release from Fructose. In total, there's a 40% greater delivery of carbohydrate to the working muscle.The texture of the Torq gel is light and syrupy. It doesn t stick to your mouth and you don t need water to wash it down. Torq have deliberately designed this gel to be easy to consume when you are on the move.
Torq Hydration is a lightly flavoured hydrating drink mix, which has been formulated to optimise fluid and electrolyte delivery over any other factor. 100% natural, TORQ Hydration uses a small amount of carbohydrate (15g / 60 Kcal per 500ml serving) to massively speed up absorption and hydration, when compared to water alone or artificially flavoured electrolyte-only solutions / tablets. Easy to store in your kit bag or kitchen, TORQ Hydration is perfect for those high intensity indoor Zwift sessions, gym work, racket sports, 5 a-side any time where remaining hydrated is a greater necessity than fuelling.

TORQ Energy Drink forms part of the TORQ Fuelling System so can be used alongside TORQ’s energy gels bars and chews to fuel optimal performances. 500ml of TORQ Energy Drink will provide 30 grams of multiple-transportable carbohydrates (1 TORQ Unit) 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. For optimal performances our TORQ Fuelling System recommends consuming 2-3 TORQ Units per hour which can be achieved through consuming a variety of fuelling products as illustrated in the table below. Consuming a TORQ Energy Drink is one method of ingesting a TORQ Unit and has the advantage of delivering hydration too. Torq recommends a minimum of 500ml fluid per hour during exercise to minimise dehydration. • 2:1 Maltodextrin:Fructose• Multiple Transportable Carbohydrates• Contains 5 Key Electrolytes• Light & Refreshing• Isotonic Profile• Part of the TORQ Fuelling System 500ml of TORQ Energy Drink = 1 TORQ Unit(See TORQ Fuelling System)
Complex carbohydrate energy drink,Soil Association Certified Organic (UK5),Neutral (flavourless),Can be added to food,No colours, flavours, artificial sweeteners or preservatives,.TORQ Energy Organic is made from an ingredient called maltodextrin, often referred to as a glucose polymer. A glucose polymer's molecular profile optimises the long-term energy giving properties of complex carbohydrates, without the need to consume bulky starch-rich foods. These bulky foods take a longer time to digest because they contain fibre, an important, but metabolically useless nutrient. They also fill and bloat your stomach making movement and sport in particular more difficult. TORQ Energy Organic, when diluted with the correct amount of water, delivers a sustained supply of glucose to the working muscle. The beauty of this product is that it's practically flavourless, so is ideal for people who like to drink water whilst exercising, but want to benefit from carbohydrate fuelling.TORQ energy Natural Organic does not contain Fructose, energy delivery won't be as strong compared with our naturally flavoured TORQ Energy.As the energy delivery isn't as strong with TORQ Energy Organic, you should therefore aim for 2 TORQ units per hour whilst using this product as opposed to 3 TORQ units per hour when all TORQ products you are using contain 2:1 Maltodextrin:Fructose. This product can also be added to food to boost its carbohydrate content. 4 level scoops of TORQ Energy Organic mixed into a cup of soup will be barely noticeable, yet it will have increased its carbohydrate content to that of a large bowl of pasta! This makes TORQ Energy Organic ideal for carbohydrate loading or aiding recovery between heavy bouts of exercise.

Always add powder to water, not water to powder to ensure easy mixing.Half fill drinks bottle with water, add level scoops of powder, replace lid and shake vigorously. Top bottle up with water, shake again and now your TORQ Energy is ready to drink.TORQ Energy Drink 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 fundamental from a performance perspective. Key Features: 2:1 Maltodextrin:Fructose, Multiple Transportable Carbohydrates, Contains 5 Key Electrolytes, Light & Refreshing, Isotonic Profile, Part of the TORQ Fuelling System,.Multiple-Transportable Carbohydrates: TORQ Energy Drink utilises a 2:1 blend of glucose-derivatives and fructose founded on a now substantial body of peer-reviewed published research (see References tab). The carbohydrate sources for TORQ Energy Drink 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. Isotonicity: The high grade, low osmolality maltodextrin used by TORQ maintains TORQ Energy Drink’s tonicity just below the isotonic level, providing the perfect balance between fuel and fluid delivery into the blood. TORQ Energy Drink has literally been optimised in every way possible. A Hypertonic solution priorities fuel delivery over fluid and a Hypotonic solution works the other way around, favouring fluid over fuel. The beauty of a solution being Isotonic is that it sits right in the middle of these two states, providing the perfect platform for endurance fuelling. If perspiration rates are low, TORQ Energy should be consumed alongside TORQ’s more concentrated fuelling units (TORQ Gel, TORQ Bar and TORQ Chew) forming a Hypertonic regimen in the intestine, delivering fuel faster when fluid isn’t so important. When perspiration rates are higher, more TORQ Energy Drink should be consumed relative to the concentrated fuelling units, maintaining the isotonic balance.TORQ Energy Tonicity Data (Osmol/Kg): Natural Orange Flavour: 0.218 // Natural Lemon Flavour: 0.222 // Natural Lime & Lemon Flavour: 0.218 // Natural Pink Grapefruit Flavour: 0.211 // Natural Blackcurrant Flavour: 0.223 // Natural Vanilla Pod Flavour: 0.211 // Tonicity of Blood: 0.29Facilitated Transport: The carbohydrate in TORQ Energy Drink doesn’t only deliver fuel, but also helps with the hydration process, one of the key benefits of isotonic drinks. Carbohydrates, such as glucose, are absorbed into the body via a specific transporter called sodium-glucose cotransporter 1, or SGLUT1 for short. These transporters act as a conveyor belt for glucose and sodium, moving them across the small intestine without the need for an osmotic gradient. As carbohydrate and sodium is moved through the SGLUT1 transporter, it also drags with it large volumes of fluid, significantly assisting in hydration. Electrolytes: TORQ Energy Drink contains Sodium, Chloride, Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium to replace the 5 electrolytes lost through perspiration. These salts maintain homeostasis within the body, allow it to hold onto water and preserve muscle function. Some brands do not include all of these electrolytes in their formulations, or run them at lower levels than they should – some include none at all. Gluten Free & Vegan Formulation: TORQ Energy Drink is a gluten-free fuelling and hydration product. The formulation for TORQ Energy Drink is also entirely plant-based, so is suitable for Vegans.Natural Flavours and No Colours: Under exercise stress, digestion is affected as blood is diverted to the working muscles and any solutes added to a product will raise its osmolality unnecessarily making it harder to digest, so irrespective of the health debate surrounding the consumption of artificial ingredients, during exercise is certainly not the time to take them. Therefore, we only use natural flavours that the body can recognise and break down easily and we don’t use colours (artificial or natural), because they simply don’t need to be in the product.No Artificial Sweeteners: For the same reasons as highlighted above, we don’t believe in the use of artificial sweeteners like Aspatame, Acsulfame-K, Saccharine and Sucralose. These artificial sweeteners are 100’s of times sweeter than sugar and Aspartame/Acsulfame-K are particularly controversial with regard to long-term health. They offer no performance benefit at all and our stance is the same with these as with colours and preservatives – if they don’t need to be included in our formulations for functional reasons, why include them?The 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.
