Product Information

Something to also consider is the amount of caffeine you want in your energy source. Caffeine has been proven to boost mental and physical performance when undertaking Isotonic exercise, making it a great ingredient option. However, it is not necessary for everyone. So take your own health and needs into consideration. Related: Fueling for an Ultramarathon – A Complete Guide to Race Day Nutrition Do SiS Gels Have Caffeine? Try practicing on your runs for when the best time for you to take your fuel gel. That way, when it comes to your big race you’ll be fully prepared. How often should you use energy gels? To help the gels get through your digestive tract, take them with water, not a sports drink. The water helps the gels get through the digestive tract and the glucose will enter your bloodstream faster. Experiment with a couple of different brands and flavors to figure out what works best for you. Other Tips for Energy Gels

You can train your body to get used to the gels. That means using them during practice as you would for a race. You’ll body will learn and you might have fewer mishaps on race day! What do Energy Gels Taste Like? Use this gel in combination with other SiS GO products to take in 60g of carbohydrate per hour for exercise lasting over 90 minutes. Fuelling every 20 minutes with a gel is a simple way to hit this carbohydrate target and keep performance at its peak with enough readily available energy for the body to perform

And with no differences in carbohydrate oxidation between liquid, gel, chew or a combined approach, the SiS Beta Fuel range can be tailored to your individual fuelling preferences. SiS has been in the sports nutrition game for three decades and the GO Isotonic Energy Gel series was launched in 2002.

It takes more “effort” to gulp the entire 60 ml. Not necessarily good or bad, but I think it’s worth noting.

Energy gels come in a variety of flavors and it depends on the brand. Your taste buds are different from mine so I can’t make any recommendations on flavors. A 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose increases the percentage of ingested carbohydrate that is oxidized (known as efficiency) from 62% to 74% when compared with a ratio of 2:1 The GU Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Gel was made for multisport and endurance athletes such as triathletes. Since the gels are honey-based, it makes the gels soy free, vegan-friendly, and nut-free. All big allergy categories.

A ratio of 1:0.8 enhances mean power output during 10 maximal sprint efforts by 3% compared with 2:1 ratio (O’Brien et al) The ingredients of all SiS GO energy gels are vegan, contain natural flavorings, and do not use aspartame. Since gels are not a 1 to 1 ratio to replenish your lost carbs, calories, and sugar levels, timing, and intake levels are very important. When Should You Use an Energy Gel? Since HUMA uses all natural ingredients, the gel is gluten free and vegan-friendly. You can also count on the gel being easy on your stomach if you’re sensitive to different foods. GO Isotonic Energy Gels are highly practical and can easily be carried without the requirement for bulky bottles. What our customers think:If you use the energy gels, practice with them the same way you would use them in a race. If you use a gel before your practice and then 45 minutes into it, time your race accordingly. I’d recommend this brand since it offers three types of gels containing that build on the “base” gel. Each one is more specialized for a different type of workout and race. If you’re looking for one brand to supply you with all your energy gels, this might be your best bet. In terms of fast absorption, there was no noticeable difference compared with other gels that had worked for me in the past. But it did what it’s supposed to, providing an energy boost (about 5-10 minutes mouth-to-muscle in my case) without stomach issues. But of course, when it comes to training and nutrition, everyone responds differently.

The Beta Fuel Gel with Nootropics contains 1 gram of the amino acid L-taurine, 250 milligrams of Cognizin® to enhance information processing and 200 milligrams of caffeine with 200 milligrams of L-theanine, the amino acid which has been shown to increase subjective feelings of alertness, while reducing feelings of ‘jitters’ that you get with caffeine alone. USAGE:As an endurance athlete, meaning your events typically last more than two hours, you need to take in between 80-120g of carbohydrate per hour. The Science in Sport Beta Fuel Dual Source Energy Drink delivers an optimised 80g of carbohydrate in a single, convenient isotonic fuelling solution with minimal risk of GI discomfort that enables you to maintain optimal performance. In terms of tearing open and consuming the energy gel on the move, it’s very well designed. Despite the watery consistency, it wasn’t messy and no accidental spillage occurred.
