Maurten Addition | Apple

Maurten Addition is a solution for overcoming
flavor fatigue during training or racing. Reset the 
palate by adding one serving to 500ml of Drink 
Mix 320 or 160. Choose between Apple, Cola, 
Menthol, or Orange. Compatible 
with Maurten Hydrogel Technology products.

Add taste to the Mix
Maurten Addition is a palate reset. It is designed to 
give athletes the option of adding a different taste to 
Drink Mix 320 or 160. Repeated consumption of 
carbohydrate fuels — even those with a 
neutral flavor profile — can lead to a state 
of flavor fatigue. Symptoms can include a lack of 
motivation to maintain a planned fueling protocol, 
sickly or nauseous sensation, and an impaired sense 
of taste.
For athletes impacted by flavor fatigue, the result can 
be reduced fueling and an energy 
deficit. Maurten Addition enables athletes to vary 
their fuel according to preferred taste 
without impacting the function of Hydrogel 
Technology.

Taste is personal
Any fuel strategy should be unique to the athlete using it. 
Taste is no different. How and when athletes use taste is 
highly individualized. Additions enable athletes to vary the 
taste of Drink Mix on their terms — applying a palate 
reset where necessary and as required. This is calculated fueling.
Flavor fatigue explained
Over-exposure and repeated consumption of the same 
taste or texture can reduce the appetite to maintain a 
consistent fueling strategy. In short, fuel becomes less appealing. 
It breaks an athlete’s commitment to the plan 
they are trying to follow, ultimately leading to an energy 
deficit. Additions help athletes prioritize fueling by 
mitigating the negative effects of flavor fatigue.
