Rice Puree is a chewable food supplement suitable to consume during sports activities,
made with a new type of ingredient called "Rice Gelée (Rice Gel)" and a long-lasting sugar called "Palatinose".
One bag provides approximately 100kcal (110kcal for Apple & Honey flavour) of energy.
It is the ideal energy supplement for all sports, including triathlons, marathons, bicycle races, and mountain climbing.
What is Palatinose?
Palatinose is a sustained energy carbohydrate that
suppresses the sudden rise in blood sugar levels
after ingesting nutrition during exercise and prevents hypoglycemia.
Palatinose, made by Mitsui Sugar and contained in Rice Puree,
is a sweetener made from sugar.
It is a natural carbohydrate that is also found in honey,
but since only small amounts can be extracted from honey,
it is thus made from sugar using the power of enzymes.
Hideya Miyazuka, who oversaw the development of this Rice Puree,
has been a top professional athlete for many years,
having twice placed in the top 10 at the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii
(9th place in 1988, the highest ever achieved by a Japanese athlete, 10th place in 1994)
and won the All Japan Triathlon Miyakojima tournament four times.
The product was born from his desire to develop a sports supplement
that would be useful to athletes by arranging Uiro (main ingredient is rice flour),
which he was particular about and loved to use as a nutritional supplement during races.
Energy supplement food for chewing
Saliva secreted by chewing not only promotes digestion,
but also protects and repairs the mucous membranes of the esophagus and internal organs.
Furthermore, saliva breaks down starch and converts it into sugar,
making it easier for the intestines to absorb, and also activates cells,
preventing damage to the throat, esophagus, internal organs, etc., and repairing them.
Some people have a weakened stomach and intestines during long periods of exercise,
making it difficult for them to tolerate supplementary food,
Rice Puree is suitable for athletes in such condition.
