Follow the same method.
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.
Make your own version. The original #0005 stays as it is.

Where it comes from
- Inspired by recipe pattern and published comparison; not affiliated with or a clone of Precision's product.
- Reddit DIY drink uses maltodextrin, dextrose and fructose in a 2:1 glucose-source-to-fructose pattern. Formu scales this to 60g carbohydrate and adds salt to approach Precision Fuel & Hydration's stated 1,000mg sodium/L. Not a product clone.
Good to know
- Mix fresh or keep refrigerated if prepared ahead; no validated shelf life.
- Where to find: Cupboard plus speciality powders.
