2.5 servings/h to reach 45 g/h with this product alone.
Strengths

Something to check
Factors to watch for estimated digestive tolerance: fat, protein.
What makes up the score
Carbohydrate contribution2.5 servings/h to reach 45 g/h90/100
It would take 115 g of this product per hour to cover your carbohydrate target alone.
Digestive comfortWhat your stomach should handle each hour44/100
To reach 45 g of carbohydrates per hour with this product alone, you would need 115 g per hour, about 2.5 servings.
This amount is what matters: 115 g of this product means 13.7 g of fat and 37.5 g of protein to digest on the move.
Fat: 13.7 grams per hour, far too much: the comfort zone goes up to 2 grams per hour. Fat takes time to leave the stomach, which stays heavy while you run.
Why fat gets in the wayFibre: 0.8 grams per hour, within the comfort zone, which goes up to 2 grams per hour.
Protein: 37.5 grams per hour, far too much: the comfort zone goes up to 5 grams per hour. Protein digests slowly and gives no immediate energy: mid-effort, it gets in the way more than it helps.
Why protein gets in the wayPolyols (sweeteners): 0 grams per hour, within the comfort zone, which goes up to 1 grams per hour.
To ease digestion, alternate it with a gel or a drink.
Everyone digests differently: try your products in training, never on race day.
