New lactate 'super fuel' gel appears at Tour de France
A new energy gel containing lactate, called Exolactate, is being tested by a top WorldTour team at the Tour de France. The product is based on the principle that lactate can be used directly as fuel to improve performance.
Is ingesting lactate the next major performance breakthrough, or is Exolactate just clever marketing of a known physiological principle?
