CLIF
SHOT is a fast-acting, easy-to-digest energy gel with 24 grams of
carbohydrates—your body’s preferred source of fuel during exercise.
Three steps to energy:
1. Tear off the top.
2. Squeeze gel into your mouth.
3. Wash down with a few mouthfuls of water.
Within
five to ten minutes, SHOT's carbohydrates (both simple & complex)
and electrolytes are assimilated into your body, working to sustain
your overall endurance and coordination. One little packet packs a
punch.
Electrolytes
Critical to peak performance,
electrolytes are essential in metabolizing carbohydrates and for the
proper functioning of muscles. Clif SHOT has three:
- Sodium - Studies indicate that rehydration occurs at a
faster rate when electrolytes such as sodium are consumed during
exercise.
- Potassium
- This mineral is the major electrolyte found in all of your body's
cells. It plays an important role in the transmission of signals to
nerve impulses, muscle cell contraction and overall maintenance of your
cardiovascular system.
- Magnesium - Not only is it
essential for the efficient metabolism of carbohydrates, research has
shown that athletes have a higher-than-average rate of magnesium
deficiency.
What about caffeine?
Each packet of Sonic Strawberry and Mocha Mocha CLIF SHOT contain 40 mg
of caffeine, which is equal to about 1/2 cup of coffee.
Over
85% of all studies focusing on the use of caffeine among athletes
demonstrate that caffeine offers significant advantages. In controlled
amounts, caffeine stimulates the central nervous system, increases the
release of adrenaline, and aids in the use of body fat as fuel.
Unleash your energy, not your litter!
Innovation
doesn’t stop with what’s inside the packaging. The Litter Leash™ is our
answer to the problem of torn-off tops. While other gel packets create
a small piece of litter, requiring valuable time to dispose of (and
often ending up on the road or trails), the Litter Leash keeps the top
attached to the package while not interfering with consumption.
CLIF SHOT with Litter Leash— fast energy for endurance athletes!
"Whether I’m training hard or racing
hard, CLIF SHOT® is my fuel of choice.
"Not
only is it easy to ingest on the fly, it’s made with only natural
ingredients and fortified with electrolytes, so I know I’m not putting
junk into my body. SHOT is the ultimate fast food—and it tastes good,
too!"
