Speed of Glucose Absorption
A study testing 45 grams Voom Pocket Rocket Electro Energy, 45 grams SIS Go Isotonic Energy Gel and 45 grams Maurten Gel 160 in people with Healthy and Nutrition, Healthy, run by Lancaster University at 1 site in United Kingdom.
Trial summary
The purpose of this study is to look at how fast commercially available supplements containing carbohydrate can get into the bloodstream. If carbohydrate, in the form of glucose, gets into the blood faster, this can provide an instant energy source and help fuel the body during exercise. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Evaluating the Speed of Carbohydrate Supplement Absorption in an Athletic Population
The purpose of this study is to look at how fast commercially available supplements containing carbohydrate can get into the bloodstream. If carbohydrate, in the form of glucose, gets into the blood faster, this can provide an instant energy source and help fuel the body during exercise. We will be testing three supplements, namely Voom Pocket Rocket, SIS Go Isotonic Energy Gel, and Maurten Gel 160. Each participant will complete all three conditions, consuming one of each supplement at random per condition. The study requires participation from male runners, cyclists and triathletes who are aged between 18-35.
Each visit will take approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, and three experimental visits per participant. The study will involve frequent blood sampling and the continuous monitoring of gas exchange (oxygen/carbon dioxide). Blood sampling via cannulation will be used to analyse the lactate, glucose, and insulin content of the blood. Gas exchange will measure the oxygen breathed in and carbon dioxide breathed out throughout the study.
The investigators plan to carry out the study on 16 participants who will be a mix of male runners, cyclists and triathletes.
Read the detailed description
The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the speed of delivery of three commercially available carbohydrate supplements during a 1 hour modified glucose tolerance test. This study will be a randomised double-blind crossover in design. Participants will be required to attend the Human Performance Laboratory at Lancaster University on three separate visits. During each visit, participants will be required to consume one of three commercially available carbohydrate supplements, namely Maurten Gel 160 (MAU), Voom Pocket Rocket Electro Energy Bar (PR), and SIS Go Isotonic Energy Gel (SIS). Each consumable will be blinded to both the researchers and participants, flavoured the same (lemon and lime) and placed into identical packaging with anonymised labelling to minimise the risk of bias. The supplements will be matched for carbohydrate content (45 grams). Blinding of supplements will be completed offsite by people not in the research team and followed strict food and hygiene protocols. Each participant will complete all three conditions, consuming one of each supplement at random per condition.
Each visit will involve frequent venous blood sampling for glucose, lactate and insulin. An anterograde venous cannula will be inserted into a vein in the antecubital fossa of the arm by a qualified member of the research team. This is a less invasive alternative to an arterial cannula whilst still allowing for accurate metabolic measures to be taken. This method is also less painful than inserting a retrograde cannula which can cause significant discomfort.
Once the anterograde venous cannula is inserted and secured in place, a resting measurement of blood will be taken (1ml of blood taken to measure glucose and lactate, and 3ml for insulin). Participants will then be required to consume one of the three carbohydrate energy supplements. Once the supplement had been consumed, continuous gas analysis will begin to analyse gas exchange to non-invasively measure substrate utilisation. This signals the start of the test, and a timer will be set for 1 hour.
Throughout the test, blood sampling will be taken in frequent intervals. 1ml of blood sampled every 5 minutes to check for glucose and lactate, and 3ml of blood sampled every 10 minutes for insulin. Gas exchange will be continuously measured to non-invasively measure substrate utilization in the muscle via indirect calorimetry which determines energy expenditure by measuring the body's oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production. The measurement is based on the assumption that the volume of oxygen (VO2) consumed is used to oxidise fuels, and the volume of carbon dioxide (VCO2) produced is a by-product of substrate utilisation.
After the study visit, analysis will be conducted assessing how each of the three supplements effect blood glucose, blood lactate, insulin, and gas exchange.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Blood Glucose (time frame: 1 hour). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06375577, which also lists 13 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Mar 2025.
