Do you really know what's in your energy gel?

from The 33Fuel Podcast · host 33Fuel Natural Sports Nutrition

In this episode we compare two leading energy gels, the SiS Go Gel and High5's Isogel and discover their ingredients are virtually the same, and that these ingredients can cause stomach problems. They may even have serious health implications. 1 Maltodextrin: destroys gut bacteria, is vitamin and mineral negative (consuming maltodextrin uses more vitamins/minerals than it gives back as it has almost none), it may also harm immune function and could be a primer for inflammatory diseases like arthritis and multiple sclerosis 2 Sodium benzoate: linked to cancer and Parkinson's 3 Potassium Sorbate: linked to white blood cell damage If you're an athlete using products containing these ingredients it's worth knowing what's in them to help you make the best choices for you, your health and your performance.   WEBSITE: https://www.33fuel.com/all-products/ TWITTER: www.twitter.com/33fuel FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/33fuel INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/33fuel/ EMAIL: [email protected]
