SANTAMADRE Lactate 60 — the future of performance speaks a new language. For decades, sports nutrition has pursued a single goal: delivering ever more carbohydrate. Lactate 60 is a fully liquid gel that combines 40 g of carbohydrate in a 1:1 ratio with 60 millimoles of lactate, introducing a new nutrition strategy for endurance sports. It does not replace carbohydrate, but complements it: the future of performance is not only about delivering more energy, but also about better understanding how the metabolism responds when working close to its limits.

Key Benefits:

  • 40 g Carbohydrate per Gel: 1:1 glucose-to-fructose ratio for a high carbohydrate intake per hour
  • 60 mmol Lactate: an additional metabolic route via the MCT transporters (monocarboxylate transporters), independent of glucose and fructose
  • Lactate as Fuel and Signal: once absorbed, lactate serves as a fuel source, but it also acts as a physiological signal that activates the adaptation mechanisms for high-intensity training
  • Fully Liquid Texture: easy to take while running, cycling and racing triathlon, with an onset time of 7 to 10 minutes
  • 250 mg Sodium per Gel: fits alongside your hydration strategy
  • With or Without Caffeine: the caffeine version provides 100 mg of caffeine per gel
  • Cologne List: certified and tested for doping-relevant substances

The Role of Lactate:

While glucose and fructose are absorbed via their own transport routes, lactate follows an independent route via the MCTs. This provides an additional metabolic route within the same energy strategy. Once absorbed, lactate is used as a fuel source, but it also acts as a physiological signal that tells the body training intensity is rising. This helps trigger the body's natural performance-related responses and activates the mechanisms involved in adapting to high-intensity training. Lactate 60 is therefore designed not only to deliver energy, but also to help the body keep managing and using that energy as intensity increases.

Its development is the result of months of research into the role of lactate in performance, hundreds of hours of testing with elite athletes and the nutrition strategy applied together with Yomif Kejelcha during his attempt to break the two-hour marathon barrier. Because carbohydrate was only the beginning.

Perfect For:

Developed for running, trail running, cycling and triathlon, and for athletes working with a high carbohydrate intake per hour during long, intense endurance efforts.

How to Use:

Onset time: 7 to 10 minutes.

High intensity (under 3 hours): take 1 gel straight after your warm-up. If the effort lasts longer than 1 hour, take an additional gel every 40 minutes.

Long duration (over 3 hours): follow the schedule below.

Gels/h Carbs/h Lactate/h Sodium/h
Level 1 1 40 g 60 mmol 250 mg
Level 2 2 80 g 120 mmol 500 mg
Level 3 3 120 g 180 mmol 750 mg

Always trial the product in training before using it in a race.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Is SANTAMADRE Lactate 60 tested for banned substances (doping)? Yes, this product is listed on the Cologne List. Products on that list are tested by an independent laboratory for doping-relevant substances.
  • How much carbohydrate does one gel contain? 40 g of carbohydrate in a 1:1 ratio, together with 60 mmol of lactate and 250 mg of sodium.
  • What does lactate do in an energy gel? Lactate is taken up via the MCT transporters, a route separate from glucose and fructose. It serves as fuel and acts as a physiological signal that activates adaptation to high intensity.
  • What is the difference between the two versions? The composition is identical, except that one version contains 100 mg of caffeine per gel and the other contains none.
  • How many gels do I take per hour? From 1 to 3 gels per hour, depending on whether your target is 40, 80 or 120 g of carbohydrate per hour.
  • Do I need water with this gel? The gel is fully liquid and can be taken without water. Keep drinking during the effort according to your own hydration plan.
  • Is the caffeine version suitable for everyone? The version with 100 mg of caffeine per gel is not recommended for children or for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
