• A ratio of 1:0.8 improves mean power over 10 maximal sprint efforts by 3% compared to a ratio of 2:1 (O'Brien et al.)

• A ratio of 1:0.8 increases the percentage of oxidized carbohydrates (efficiency) of total carbohydrate intake from 62% (2:1 ratio specific yield) to 74% (1:0.8) (O'Brien et al.)

• A ratio of 1:0.8 reduces symptoms of gastric fullness (stomach fullness) and nausea compared to a ratio of 2:1 (O'Brien et al.)
