Tailwind Nutrition - High Carb Fuel

When you're absolutely burying yourself in a long ride, race, or hard training block, your body can absorb far more fuel than most athletes are actually giving it. Here's what most athletes don't realize: you can train your gut to absorb up to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour — and when you do, everything changes.

Tailwind High Carb Fuel is the drink mix built for athletes who are ready to unlock that ceiling.

Smart Carb Delivery Dextrose and fructose hit separate absorption pathways in your gut — meaning your body can process both at the same time without backing up. Throw in maltodextrin for additional glucose and to keep sweetness in check, and you've got 90 grams of carbohydrates per serving that your body can actually use.

Complete Electrolytes in Every Serving Each serving delivers 680mg of sodium and 190mg of potassium — enough to keep your muscles firing and your hydration on point even when you're deep into a sweat-soaked effort.

One Bottle Does It All No gels to dig out of pockets, no chews to chew when your jaw doesn't want to cooperate. Mix a single serving into your bottle and you've got calories, carbs, and electrolytes handled for the hour.

Your body can only tap into that 90g absorption rate after gradually building up to it over several weeks — think of it like building a peak for your biggest race. Start conservative and work up. The 16-serving bag is perfect for that training process, letting you nail your gut-training protocol over weeks without reordering every few days. Single-serve packets are there for race day, travel, or whenever you want a grab-and-go option.

Both Lemonade and Ginger Lime taste clean and light — not the cloying sweetness that makes you want to dump your bottle at hour three. The Ginger Lime adds organic ginger extract, which has a subtle calming effect on your stomach when things start to get sketchy late in a race.

Vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free.

Stop leaving energy on the table. When the effort demands everything, make sure your fuel does too.

Mix one serving into 500–750ml of water and start sipping early in your session. Tailwind High Carb Fuel is built for the big days — long runs, long rides, race simulations and events where a casual gel every now and then simply isn't going to cut it.

With a serious hit of carbohydrates in each serving, the goal is simple: keep the engine topped up before the wheels start falling off. Sip consistently, stay ahead of your fueling needs, and save the dramatic negotiations with your legs for the final kilometres.

As always, practice your fueling strategy in training before trusting it with your race-day dreams.
