Every ingredient is multiplied by the same amount, so the ratios, strength and per-serve nutrition stay as recorded. This doesn’t tune carbs or sodium on their own — remix the formula for a different balance. Estimates and starting guidance, not medical or professional advice. Test any new fuelling strategy in training before race day.
