Exercise capacity and performance is often reduced when exercising in hot conditions due to both elevated physiological strain and feelings of thermal discomfort.
One of the main contributors to the early onset of fatigue in hot environments is enhanced feelings of discomfort and a perception of being hot and uncomfortable. With this in mind, Turbo+ Powder is formulated with menthol extract to improve the ability to tolerate such heat stress by reducing thermal perception through the refreshing and cooling sensations that menthol evokes.
Through these mechanisms, menthol consumption during exercise makes it easier to breathe and results in improvements in both time trial and time to exhaustion exercise performance.
Exercise in the heat also increases the reliance on carbohydrate as a fuel. The combination of menthol and carbohydrate therefore provides both a cooling and energy benefit. The rinse and drink strategy for Turbo+ Powders is also beneficial given that carbohydrate stimulates receptors within the mouth which have a stimulatory effect on the central nervous system (CNS) and ultimately enhances exercise performance.

Rated 4 out of 5 based on 6 ReviewsI tried this product for the first time, no complaints.
Sorry guys the menthol didn’t work for me, felt like I was eating a packet of cough sweets. I like the innovation but I will stick with GO Energy.
Love this product, use on every ride. Has made a massive improvement to indoor performance levels.
Nice and cool after taste. Worth a go!
I've tested this for the first time on the new Mont Ventoux route during the virtual TDF. I'm not convinced yet. The cooling effect of the menthol was there, without a doubt. It was comparable to the feeling a very minty chewing gum could give you. Both in your mouth and lungs. However, it felt like breathing wasn't as comfortable (if it even could since Ventoux) compared to using the normal SIS hydro. The taste of gels and bars was also a bit minty. I tried it outside too, during a less intense ride but on a pretty warm day and I kinda enjoyed it more. It feels like the taste didn't linger as much, perhaps due to a lesser dry mouth. I'm not convinced yet.
Very nice, different taste but works well
