Apurna Long Distance Energy Gel: anticipate the arrival of fatigue
The Apurna Long Distance Energy Gel with apple flavor helps to prevent fatigue during your training sessions and competitions lasting more than 2 hours.
The branched-chain amino acids, more commonly known as BCAAs, help maintain your muscle mass during exertion. The carbohydrates play a role in avoiding the depletion of your energy reserves, allowing you to stay at your maximum effort.
The Apurna Long Distance Energy Gel provides a significant intake of vitamins and minerals to reduce oxidative stress and fatigue that can quickly occur on long-distance courses.
