## Your questions, answered

### What is typetwo?

typetwo is an energy gel, made as a gel mix: 30g of carbs in a 2:1 ratio (maltodextrin-to-fructose) that you mix with water or your favourite drink. For runners, cyclists, triathletes, and endurance athletes. Add water or whatever drink you like, shake 15 seconds, and you have an energy gel ready. It is affordable, quick to prepare and easy on your stomach.

### How is this different from mixing my own carb drink at home?

It's the same formula of DIY energy gels runners already use, we just did the math and portioning for you. Skip the time spent cooking. Same result, same convenient price, less hassle.

### Why won't this wreck my stomach like other gels?

Traditional gels are concentrated carbs bombs. Your gut has to pull water from your bloodstream to dilute them, which triggers cramping and GI issues. typetwo is mixed with liquids at whatever concentration works for you, so you avoid the emergency bathroom breaks.

### How much should I take, and how often?

One serving = 30g of carbs. Once trained, most people handle 60-90g/hour, so that's 2-3 servings an hour depending on effort and gut tolerance. New to this? Start with 1 serving (30g) per hour for sessions longer than 1 hour, then add a second if your stomach copes.

### Does it need to be refrigerated?

No. It's a dry powder: you mix it right before heading out, and you are ready to go. Once mixed, you can keep it for up to 24 hours. No clock ticking once you open the bag. Keep it somewhere dry, mix it as you need it.

### How can it be so affordable?

You're not paying for single-use foil packaging, a marketing budget, or a distributor markup. About €1 a serving (up to 75% less than traditional energy gels) because you buy the mix, refill your flask, and dose it yourself.
