CARBS WILL TAKE YOUR FURTHER
Have you ever started a long bike ride or an intense workout full of energy but your stamina plummets half way through? You thought your pre-workout drink would help your body sustain a level of vigor throughout, but it only took you part of the way?
Fuel-5 was built to keep you fueled until you cross the finish line! Fuel-5 contains a proprietary blend of carbohydrate fuel sources specifically chosen for their ability to promote fast, quick energy as well as longer, sustained energy.
ALL THE SWEET POTATO BENEFITS AND NONE OF THE POTATO TASTE
Fuel-5 can be used as a pre-workout, intra and post workout. It was formulated with the distance runner in mind; thin in consistency, with a clean, light flavor. Fuel-5 is so smooth it mixes very well with other Xendurance products such as HydroStix, Creatine-JB and Vanilla Protein.
LACTATE VS. GLUCOSE FOR ENERGY
If you exercise or exert your body in anyway - you require energy. Approximately 1/3 of your total carbohydrate energy is from lactate, the rest is from blood glucose and muscle glycogen. Lactate is the body’s preferred fuel over glucose. Your body will use lactate first. The more lactate you use during exercise, the less muscle glycogen you have to use, which means your glycogen stores will last longer and this equates to more energy.
VITAMINS B6 & B12
Vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 work synergistically in many biochemical functions such as cellular energy production, healthy red-blood cell production and neurological production. Only vitamin B12, which is used by almost every cell in the body, is stored in your system. Vitamin B6 must be acquired each day from diet or supplementation to maintain optimal health. Xendurance Protein contains both vitamins to aid in energy production and to help convert carbohydrates, fat and protein into energy, known as ATP.

FAQ
There are four carbohydrate fuel sources & lactate. Carbohydrate foods are identified as having a significant impact on fuel for your muscles during exercise. If the body doesn’t have enough carbohydrates, protein is broken down to make glucose for energy. Lactate is added to Fuel-5 for fuel as well.
Approximately 1/3 of your total carbohydrate energy is from lactate, the rest is from blood glucose and muscle glycogen. Lactate is the body’s preferred fuel over glucose. Your body will use lactate first. The more lactate you use during exercise, the less muscle glycogen you have to use, which means your glycogen stores will last longer and this equates to more energy.
DEXTROSE is a simple sugar chemically identical to glucose and is made from corn. Because dextrose is a simple sugar, the body can quickly use it for energy.
MALTODEXTRIN is an easily digestible carbohydrate made from rice, corn or potato starch. Maltodextrin is a complex carbohydrate perfect for extended energy usage.
SUCROSE is table sugar and made from sugar cane or sugar beets. Sucrose is a simple carbohydrates that occurs naturally in every fruit and vegetable. Because sucrose is a simple carbohydrate, the body can quickly use it for energy.
ORGANIC SWEET POTATO some people call sweet potatoes one of the worlds healthiest foods. It’s a great source of vitamin A, vitamin C, manganese and over a dozen other vitamins and minerals.
