Carbohydrates - fundamental nutrients, especially for the energy role they play in our body. The term carbohydrates or glucides refers to a heterogone group of molecules involved in energy metabolism and in the structural function of eukaryotic cells. Introduced through the diet, the carbohydrates are initially digested by the salivary amylases in the buccal cavity (this explains the importance of a correct chewing) and then at the intestinal level by pancreatic amylase, dextrinase and disaccharidase. The simple sugars obtained are absorbed by the apical membrane of the enterocyte through passive diffusion systems, and facilitated transport, then released into the circulatory stream by the basolateral membrane. The time at which 50 grams of a given carbohydrate raise blood sugar levels, in relation to a standard, glucose or white bread, is called a glycemic index; this value correlated to the quantity of carbohydrates contained in a given food defines the concept of glycemic load. The choice of foods with low or high index / glycemic load, strongly influences the dietary quality of the diet in pathological individuals, healthy and athletes. Focusing on the athlete's diet, it is clear that the choice of the type of food and type of carbohydrate can adapt to different needs and supplementary perspectives.

1. In the pre-race phase, to saturate the muscular reserves of glycogen → medium and low glycemic index carbohydrates, easy to digest.
2. During endurance performance: to support performance and delay the onset of muscle fatigue → medium glycemic carbohydrates in liquid or gel form.
3. Immediately before the sprint or the explosion of force : → carbohydrates with a high glycemic index, ready for assimilation and consumption, naturally in liquid form.
4. In the post work out : to enhance the body's anabolic abilities → carbohydrates with a high glycemic index, to stimulate insulin secretion, combined with an amino acid source to improve protein synthesis and carbohydrates with a medium glycemic index to restore muscle glycogen stocks.

The different needs have led to the formulation of products containing various forms of carbohydrates: from simple sugars of immediate absorption, to complex sugars such as maltodextrins, which can - depending on the formulation - best adapt to the different integrative perspectives of the athlete.

Branched chain amino acids (L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine): essential amino acids, involved in the energetic and plastic functions of the body, represent a valid support not only ergogenic to the athlete's diet. The importance of these three amino acids is essentially:

1. To the absence of a hepatic metabolism, which makes them particularly bioavailable especially at the muscular level;
2. To the important energetic action performed thanks to the gluconeogenic and oxidative capacity, which is achieved above all in endurance sports;
3. Antiproteolytic and myoprotective action;
4. Competitive action against tryptophan, which results in a reduction in the production of serotonin and the feeling of fatigue;
5. At the buffering action.

Their requirement amounts to about 83 mg / kg / day, distributed in 40 mg / kg / day for Leucine, 23 mg / kg / day for isucine and 20 mg / kg / day for valine, which rises to double for endurance athletes, such as marathon runners and cyclists. This requirement can be easily achieved through a healthy diet, which provides the correct protein quantity. Integration, on the other hand, becomes necessary for endurance athletes and should be associated with that of group B vitamins.

B vitamins : the B vitamins, very present in animal products, legumes and whole grains, are part of numerous biological reactions, and in particular those of the oxidative metabolism of various nutrients, guaranteeing the body the realization of a correct catabolic and pro-energy phase.

Vitamin B1 : also known as thiamine, it is activated following a process of dual phosphorylation as TPP (thiamin pyrophosphate), and is part of the process of oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, in the Krebs cycle (allowing the passage from α-ketoglutarate to Succinil CoA), and in the pentose phosphate cycle. It is therefore essential in the oxidative metabolism of carbohydrates.

Its requirement is about 0.4 / 0.8 mg every 1000 kcal introduced.

Vitamin B2 : also known as riboflavin, reaches the liver through the circulatory stream, bound to albumin, where it is transformed into FMN and FAD. These two prosthetic groups, which are essential for metabolism in general, fall within the process of oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and in the krebs cycle, in the B-oxidation of fatty acids, in the oxidation of amino acids and in oxidative phosphorylation.

The recommended daily dose is 0.6mg per 1000 kcal introduced with the diet.

Vitamin B6 : also known as pyridoxine, it is transformed and phosphorylated in the liver into pyridoxal phosphate, an important coenzyme involved in numerous key reactions of amino acid metabolism (transamination and oxidative deamination), lipid (sphingolipid synthesis) and glucidic. Its daily requirement is around 1 / 1.5 mg, but even in this case deficiency episodes are very rare.

Nicotinamide: admitted to nicotinic acid which together with nicotinic acid represents vitamin B3 or PP . This vitamin is part of the constitution of two very important coenzymes, known as NAD and NADP, involved in many metabolic reactions, both oxidative and non-oxidative. Catabolic, anabolic, cell growth, differentiation and maintenance of cellular function are just some of the fields of activity of this vitamin

Vitamin B3 deficiencies, very rare, give rise to a pathological condition known as pellagra characterized by dermatitis, mental and cognitive disorders. For men in adulthood, the LARN, recommend an intake of about 20mg / day, considering that doses higher than 3000mg, can originate a classic gastrointestinal symptomatology accompanied also by hepatotoxicity.

Pantothenic acid: also known as vitamin B5, it is part of the synthesis of Coenzyme A (ATP + VitB5 + Cys), which plays a key role in all the reactions in which the transfer of an acyl group takes place (oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, of α-ketoglutarate, oxidation of fatty acids). It therefore has a central role in both carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. The recommended daily dose ranges from 4 to 7 mg, however given the presence of this vitamin in many foods (mainly whole grains), deficiencies are found only in serious cases of malnutrition.

Product features - Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit

This energy supplement moves away from the classic commercialized drinks, with the addition of caffeine and other stimulants. In fact, it seeks to provide the athlete with a more solid and lasting metabolic support. The formulation with carbohydrates of various glycemic indexes guarantees an energy coverage in the short and medium term, while the presence of branched chain amino acids supports the muscle in the harshest phases of performance, reducing the catabolic effect and the feeling of fatigue. Group B vitamins close the circle, optimizing the oxidative process and the consequent production of energy.

Naturally the supplement in question is not proposed to satisfy all the energy and metabolic demand that performance requires, therefore the dosages of the various principles, even if reduced, make sense in the perspective of a precompetitive ergogenic aid.

Recommended use by the company - Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit

For a ready and gradual energy intake during prolonged physical exercise, take before or during the effort. It is easy to use: you can drink as it is or dissolved in a glass of water or other liquid. The ration of Enervitene Sport Gel for an effective energy supply during a prolonged effort is 4 minipacks.

Use in sports - Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit

As recommended by the company, the consumption of this supplement should be limited to the phases immediately preceding or concurrent with the race. The number of portions to be consumed should instead be calculated based on the type and duration of the service. For protracted performance for about 2 hours, 2 minipacks should be sufficient to meet the athlete's energy demand. Of course also in this case it is very important to consider the type of nutrition, and the metabolic-nutritional conditions with which the athlete reaches the performance, in order to program effective supplementary protocols.

Side effects Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit

Excessive consumption could cause nausea, cramps, abdominal pain, diarrhea and vomiting.

Precautions for use Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit

The product is contraindicated in cases of renal or hepatic disease, cardiovascular disease and / or hypertension, during pregnancy, during lactation and under 14 years.

In the event of prolonged use (over 6/8 weeks), medical advice is required.
