For longer rides, anything over an hour, I use 50% Gatorade, 50% aitch-to-owe in my hydration pack; this came from direct experience with a bonk or two.
Recently, I read a pitch in one of the bike mags that 10% protein in the drink was a good thing to help endurance. They mentioned Revenge Pro, which I chased down, but it seems wicked overpriced ($1.80 per serving of unspecified size) for what it actually delivers, as are most of the food-from-the-chemical-factory-teat products.
What's an actual food product that I could mix in with the Gatorade to get the protein, and how can I quantitatively determine the protein content?
