Mix the contents with water as directed on the packaging. Consume during exercise rather than beforehand. It is designed for use in sustained endurance sessions where carbohydrate delivery is a priority.
Maurten Drink Mix 320 is a high-carbohydrate sports drink mix designed to fuel endurance exercise. It uses Maurten's hydrogel technology, which means the drink forms a gel-like consistency in the stomach. The idea is to reduce gastrointestinal stress that often accompanies high-carb intake during sustained effort - a common barrier for endurance athletes who need meaningful fuel without the nausea.
The carbohydrate content is substantial, making this suited to longer sessions where glycogen availability becomes the limiting factor: marathon running, cycling sportives, triathlons, or any event pushing beyond 90 minutes. It sits in a different category from light electrolyte drinks or casual hydration products. This is fuel first.
It mixes with water and is consumed during exercise rather than before or after. The formulation is intentionally simple - no added flavouring agents or artificial colours - which reflects Maurten's approach of stripping back to the functional essentials. That simplicity also makes it easier for athletes with sensitive stomachs to tolerate compared with more heavily formulated sports drinks. Maurten has become a fixture on elite marathon start lines globally, and the product's uptake among professional endurance athletes speaks to its practical credibility. For anyone training or competing at meaningful intensity and duration, this is a considered choice.

Sign inDrink Mix 320 is a high-carbohydrate fuel source, not primarily a hydration product. Choose it for long, hard efforts where energy delivery matters — typically sessions or events over 90 minutes. For shorter or lower-intensity activity, a simple electrolyte drink is usually sufficient.
When this drink mix meets the acidic environment of the stomach, the carbohydrates form a gel-like consistency. This is thought to slow carbohydrate release into the gut in a more controlled way, which may reduce the bloating and nausea that some athletes experience with high-carb drinks during intense effort.
Many athletes turn to Maurten specifically because of GI issues with other sports drinks. The hydrogel approach and minimal ingredient list may make it more tolerable, but individual responses vary. It is worth trialling in training well before any event.
Not really. The high carbohydrate load is calibrated for serious endurance effort. Using it for casual or low-intensity activity would add carbohydrate calories that most people would not need in that context.
Follow the instructions on the packaging exactly, as the water-to-powder ratio is important for the hydrogel to form correctly and for the carbohydrate concentration to sit within a tolerable range during exercise.

Been using this for marathon training and it's made a real difference to how I feel in the final third of long runs. No stomach issues whatsoever, which was always my problem with other high-carb drinks. The plain taste is odd at first but you get used to it quickly.

I've tried pretty much every sports drink on the market and most of them have given me cramps or nausea during races. This one just... doesn't. Used it at a half ironman last month and had zero stomach complaints. Worth every penny.

Does exactly what it says. Fuelled a 5-hour sportive on two bottles and felt strong throughout.

The performance benefit is real — I use it for anything over two hours and it genuinely keeps energy levels steady. My only gripe is the cost. At £33.99 for a box, it adds up fast when you're training five days a week. Wish they did a larger bulk option.

Used to use a bright orange electrolyte powder but it was wrecking my stomach on longer rides. Swapped to this about three months ago and haven't looked back. The lack of artificial flavouring took a bit of getting used to but it's fine. Mixes clean, sits well.

Used this during my first marathon and got through without the wall. Can't attribute it to this alone obviously, but my fuelling strategy was solid and this was a big part of it.
