The landlord answered these two questions respectively.

1, what is energy glue?

Energy glue is a kind of food, not a glue that sticks to things. This kind of food is mainly used for endurance sports (long-distance running marathon, cross-country running, cycling, triathlon, etc.). Before, during and after exercise (mainly during exercise). Why glue? It is mainly high-energy sugar, unlike drinks which are full of water, so it is sweeter and thicker, so it is called glue (personally, the thicker it is, the higher the energy value may be). High-energy supplementary intake can make long-term exercise sustainable. Supplement some vitamins, minerals, amino acids, caffeine and other substances, and supplement the substances lost in sports to improve sports performance. I just tried an energy glue recently. Let me share their ingredients, so that everyone can understand this thing more clearly. Pipi energy glue, named Pipi Pipi, is very interesting, and it is the best result of the agreement track PB. Their classification is jelly. Because there is no such division of fresh products in China, some energy gels may be jelly, jam, drinks and so on. , mainly rely on the guidance and constraints of local management departments. In the nutrient composition table of micro-energy glue, the energy value of 100g is expressed as 1 16 1kJ. Compared with similar products, the energy value is not low, and it is a real gel. The packaging form is also a thick aluminum foil bag, which preserves the product quality better. One piece is 45g, and the energy provided by one piece is 125 kcal. Fitness parents may be familiar with the concept of calories, and the energy value of each piece is also one of the few in China. Let's look at other ingredients besides sugar. Eat sea salt and potassium chloride to provide sodium and potassium consumed by exercise and maintain body fluid balance. Green tea powder (not seen by others) and Guarana extract, as substitutes for caffeine, need not be said; In addition, vitamin B is added to speed up digestion, energy supply and glycogen decomposition. It is worth mentioning that their energy glue has added branched amino acid BCAAs, which is not found in most energy glue. This substance is very common in the fitness industry, but it has just begun to be used as a nutritional supplement in endurance sports. His function is to reduce muscle loss. How can you let the muscles you have worked so hard consume and not lose fat? . . Of course, taurine (an essential ingredient in various functional drinks) has five flavors, and multi-flavor energy gum (original flavor, raspberry flavor, rose flavor, ginseng flavor and mint sea salt flavor) is also very rare in the industry. Generally speaking, this muscle-free energy glue is said to be developed for high-strength and long-distance cross-country Of course, cycling and marathon are more like a duck to water for the public. Many cross-country enthusiasts and big coffees are their loyal fans. Another thing you may wonder is that caffeine is not directly added to China's energy gel. Instead, substances instead of caffeine are added, because in China, caffeine cannot be added directly for safety, and of course, there may be food safety risks if it is added directly. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not use caffeine-containing energy gel directly. The dose difference between the safe dose of caffeine and the fatal overdose is very small. It is safe and effective to replace it with safe Guarana extract and green tea powder.

2. Is energy glue harmful?

At present, there is no report that energy glue is harmful to human body. The only advice is that people with diabetes and hyperglycemia should try not to eat it. So as not to cause blood sugar to rise in a short time.
