Carbs Fuel Bicarb

Your legs go rubbery the minute you need to hold on. Maybe that's an 800m repeat, the final kick of a crit race, or the last interval on a track workout. Lactic acid is piling up in your muscles faster than your body can flush it out, and that's the burn that shuts your legs down. Buffer that acid and you buy yourself more time at your best pace before it wins over you.

Carbs Fuel Bicarb delivers that extra time, packing a full and flexible dose of sodium bicarbonate into enteric capsules built to bypass your stomach and land intact in your small intestine.

Removes GI Issues - The capsules resist stomach acid and hold together until they reach your small intestine, cutting the bloating and cramping that scares athletes off bicarb all together.

Dosed to Your Body Weight - Every bag comes pre-portioned at 15g, 20g, or 25g per pouch, matched to a 0.2-0.4 g/kg range relative to body weight. Start low and build toward the higher end over a few sessions before race day.

15g: New to bicarb supplementation and/or athletes 50kg-70kg in body weight

20g: Intermediate bicarb users and/or athletes 60kg - 90kg

25g: Advanced bicarb users and/or athletes 70kg - 110kg

No Mixing, No Mess, No Excuses - Skip the bowl of chalky powder. Grab a pre-measured pouch and water, good for a trainer session or a race-day bag.

During an all-out effort, your muscles produce hydrogen ions faster than your bloodstream can buffer them, and that rising acidity forces you to slow down early. Sodium bicarbonate raises your blood's buffering capacity to absorb more of that acid, which is why loading it ahead of a hard effort lets you hold pace deeper into the red. Raw bicarbonate reacts almost immediately in the stomach, causing the gas and bloating that made athletes give up on it, while the enteric coating lets it pass through intact and release where your body can use it.

How to Use Carbs Fuel Bicarb

Dose: Take one full pouch (15g, 20g, or 25g depending on your body weight and bicarb history) with a full glass of water.

Timing: Take it 90 to 120 minutes before your hardest efforts, and fast for the hour before so the capsules move through unimpeded.

Building Your Dose: New to bicarb? Start at 0.2 g/kg and build toward 0.4 g/kg over a few sessions before race day. This formula carries a considerable sodium load, so track your fluids and total sodium intake.

Body Weight	Pouch Size
110 – 154 lb (50 – 70 kg)	15g pouch
132 – 198 lb (60 – 90 kg)	20g pouch
154 – 242 lb (70 – 110 kg)	25g pouch
Ranges overlap because pouch size also depends on bicarb experience: newer users and lighter athletes start at 15g, intermediate users at 20g, advanced users at 25g.            Take one full pouch with a full glass of water 90–120 minutes before your hardest effort, and fast for the hour before so it moves through your stomach unimpeded.
