Clif Bar, Shot Bloks, Electrolyte Chews, Black Cherry Flavor, 18
Variety is the spice of life-we couldn't agree more. We understand ('cause we've been there) that after numerous hours of training and racing, the body needs to mix it up a little in terms of what goes in the tank. That's why Clif set out to create another energy food option that would complement our bars and gels. The result is CLIF SHOT(r) Bloks(tm) chews. They're simple-to-handle, easy-to-chew, and provide similar nutrition to SHOT(r) gel, so they'll fit seamlessly into your training and racing nutrition program. Nutrition - Carbohydrates and Electrolytes SHOT(r) Bloks(tm) chews offer very similar nutrition to SHOT Energy Gel. The primary ingredient for both is brown rice syrup which provides easily assimilated carbohydrates for working muscles. Both products also provide the mineral salts known as electrolytes. These electrolytes allow electrical impulses to travel properly throughout your body, permitting normal bodily function. When you sweat, you start to deplete your electrolyte stores and experience potential performance decline, so it's best to help replenish them through food and fluid intake. One of our newest flavors, Margarita w/Salt, provides 210 mg of sodium which is 3 times the amount in other flavors. Sodium is the key electrolyte lost in sweat. Lose too much and performance declines dramatically, including a higher likelihood of muscle cramping. For hot days or for those that perspire excessively Margarita w/Salt is the way to go. Form and Function Clif created SHOT(r) Bloks(tm) chews, each in a 10g size, so that 3 chews provide 100 calories. That makes it easy to track caloric intake during long outings. There are 6 chews to a double-serve package, so one package provides 200 calories.
