Maurten Hydrogel Sports Fuel

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Maurten Hydrogel Sports Fuel scores 56/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Maurten Hydrogel Sports Fuel lists 6 ingredients, starting with Water, Glucose, Fructose, Calcium Carbonate and Gluconic Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 56/100 Maurten Hydrogel Sports Fuel lands mid-scale — below the typical score in sports & electrolyte drinks, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in sports & electrolyte drinks is BODYARMOR SportWater Electrolytes at 96/100.
