Increased Performance...
PURE Performance + Race Fuel is a high-carbohydrate, high-sodium drink designed to support your training and race-day fuelling strategy. It can be used as your sole source of fuel and is unflavoured to help reduce flavour fatigue over long efforts.
The key carbohydrate source, Cluster Dextrin™, is rapidly digestible and provides a steady release of energy. Growing evidence suggests that Cluster Dextrin™ outperforms traditional carbohydrates like maltodextrin, particularly in reducing perceived exertion (RPE). This may be due to improved gastric tolerance, faster glucose uptake, or a combination of both.*
One of the key advantages of Race Fuel is that it allows you to consume significantly more carbohydrate through fluid—up to 2–3 times more than a standard sports drink. This makes it ideal for carbohydrate gut training and for pushing your fuelling limits during high-intensity racing.


What is Cluster Dextrin™?
Cluster Dextrin™ is a specialised carbohydrate that has become increasingly popular in sports nutrition due to its performance-enhancing properties. Unlike traditional carbohydrate sources such as maltodextrin, Cluster Dextrin™ has a highly branched, cyclic structure, which gives it several unique advantages.
This structure results in a high molecular weight and low osmolality, allowing the carbohydrate to pass through the stomach more quickly. As a result, it can deliver energy faster, with reduced risk of gastrointestinal discomfort—even at high concentrations.
By incorporating Cluster Dextrin™, we’re able to offer a high-carbohydrate drink that is not only easier on the gut but also supports better endurance and sustained performance during intense or prolonged activity.*

Higher Sodium Levels...
All sports drinks play a role in replacing lost electrolytes, but PURE Race Fuel is specifically formulated for longer efforts, with a higher sodium content to match extended sweat losses. Sodium is essential for glucose absorption in the gut and helps maintain fluid balance. On average, athletes can lose up to 1000 mg of sodium per hour during intense exercise.
We use a blend of sodium chloride and sodium citrate to optimise flavour, reduce the risk of GI discomfort, and support effective electrolyte replacement—along with other key minerals lost in sweat.

What About Fructose?
Combining glucose and fructose can improve carbohydrate absorption and oxidation during exercise.* However, fructose is known to cause stomach upset in some athletes.
While we generally avoid adding fructose for this reason, Cluster Dextrin™ may help buffer its effects by improving gastric emptying and reducing GI distress. The ideal ratio of Cluster Dextrin™ to fructose is still being studied, but current research supports its potential to make higher-carb fuelling more tolerable.

HASTA Certified
Human and Supplement Testing Australia (HASTA) is Australia's first commercial product testing organisation, testing for WADA banned substances. As a performance product it was a must that PURE Race Fuel become a part of the HASTA product certification scheme.
Earnt not bought! Certifying a product involves not just testing, but verification of the manufacturing quality controls that are in place. If a product has the "HASTA Certified" seal on pack, it means that every batch has been tested for over 200 WADA prohibited substances.
