Why Athletes Choose Maple Boost

Real Food. Real Results.

Every pouch is engineered to solve the problems athletes face with traditional energy gels — while delivering clean, sustained performance fuel.

  • Steady Energy

    Vermont maple syrup provides a natural blend of sucrose, glucose, and fructose for smooth absorption and zero crash.

  • 5× More Electrolytes

    217mg sodium + 320mg total electrolytes per pouch. Most gels give you less than 20mg — barely enough to
    matter.

  • Goes Down Easy

    Not too thick. Not too sweet. Smooth liquid consistency you can slurp straight down — no chewing, no choking.

  • Zero Gut Issues

    Real food your body recognizes. No artificial ingredients, no preservatives, no gut bombs. Just pure fuel.

Our Story

Born from Frustration, Built for Athletes

Maple Boost was created by Ryan, a dad and daily runner who was tired of forcing down chemical-tasting gels that destroyed his stomach. After every long run ended in a gut bomb, he asked a simple question: why can not energy fuel be real food?

The answer was sitting in his kitchen pantry — pure Vermont maple syrup. Combined with a pinch of Mediterranean sea salt for electrolytes, he had created the simplest, cleanest energy gel on the market.

Tested inside Tribal Training by cyclists, runners, triathletes, and everyday professionals, Maple Boost proved that real food fuel works better than synthetic alternatives.

  • Sourced from Vermont sugar shacks
  • Field-tested by 200+ athletes
  • Only 2 ingredients, zero compromises
  • Designed for runners, cyclists & triathletes
  • Taste profile was perfect for me. Refreshing and not too thick — easy to just slurp straight down.

ORIGIN STORY

How Maple Boost came to life.

Wanting real fuel

When I got into endurance sports, I was already moving away from processed foods in daily life. It felt wrong to fuel exercise with chemicals and junk — nothing on the market made real food easy.

The workaround

Figuring it out

Bananas in a kit pocket, dates in my shorts, a honey bear in my trail vest. Real food, but a big pain — and it turned out real food has almost no sodium, the #1 electrolyte for endurance.

Today

Maple Boost is born

Nature's cleanest carb, paired with the electrolytes endurance athletes actually need. After years of testing in ultras and Ironmans, Maple Boost became the first product from Tribal Supps.

Collapsible content

What exactly is in Maple Boost?

Just two ingredients: pure Vermont maple syrup and Mediterranean sea salt. That is it. No artificial flavors, no preservatives, no maltodextrin, no chemicals. Real food your body recognizes and can use immediately.

How many calories per pouch?

Each standard pouch contains 80 calories with 20g of carbohydrates. We also offer 240-calorie pouches for ultra-endurance efforts. Both deliver the same clean, steady energy with 217mg of sodium for electrolyte balance.

Will it cause stomach issues like other gels?

That is exactly why we created Maple Boost. Because it is real food — not synthetic maltodextrin — your body digests it naturally. 95% of our testers report zero GI distress, even during long efforts over 4 hours.

How does the taste compare to other gels?

It tastes like real maple syrup — because it is. Subtle, natural sweetness with a perfect pinch of salt. No chemical aftertaste, no artificial fruit flavors. Athletes consistently rate it 10/10 for taste and palatability.

When should I use Maple Boost?

Any time you need clean energy: during runs, rides, hikes, triathlons, or long training sessions. Take one pouch every 45-60 minutes during activity. The smooth liquid consistency makes it easy to consume while moving.
