Frequently Asked Questions
Will it upset my stomach?
HBCD drinks show fewer GI complaints in studies compared to traditional carb sources. If you have a sensitive stomach, we recommend starting with half a scoop to assess your personal tolerance.*
How much should I drink per hour?
For endurance sessions over 90 minutes, a general guideline is to aim for 30–60g of carbohydrates per hour. Adjust based on your personal needs, intensity, and heat conditions.
Can I use it with gels?
Yes. Hidden Edge plays well with other nutrition. Just be sure to count the total carbohydrates from all sources to hit your hourly goal and avoid over-fueling.
Are electrolytes included?
Yes, every serving contains a 925 mg electrolyte matrix (Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium) to help replace what's lost in sweat.
When is the best time to drink it?
For pre-loading, drink one scoop 15–30 minutes before your session. For longer workouts, sip consistently throughout.
Science notes:
(1) Shiraki T. et al., 2015: elite swimmers; HBCD group ~70% longer to fatigue vs glucose/water (small N).
(2) Takii H. et al., 2004/2005: HBCD sports drinks emptied faster than glucose/dextrin; low osmolality is key.
(3) Takii H. et al., 2004: fewer GI complaints during cycling with HBCD.
