Frequently asked questions

Why does Perpetuem contain protein?
During efforts lasting many hours, a little protein and fat helps keep your energy level stable and prevents hunger. You don't need that for short runs.

Should I test new nutrition first?
Yes, always try it during training first. That way you know your stomach tolerates it well before using it in a race.
