GU Energy Original Sports Nutrition Energy Gel, 24-Count, Salted Caramel

My two athletes use these all the time. Good for a pre-workout/competition boost. They are very tasty! Thick, caramel flavor- very much like candy- for me they are a little too rich tasting, so if thats a concern, have some water nearby to wash it down. They are super convenient to throw in a gear bag, and give a little boost on the go.

I like both the taste and the consistency. It’s vanilla, but not overwhelming and it doesn’t repeat on me like some products do. The packaging is small with no sharp edges. Price is good when compared to similar products. The consistency is closer to pudding than runny liquid so I can eat it in two or three ‘slurps’ without it spilling over my fingers or worse still over the shifters on my bike over 30 seconds or so. I can’t speak to the amount of sodium, caffeine or amino acids but if I’m dragging this always peps me up.

Its GU so already expected effective product. The only thing to concern is the shelf life. Best before is on Oct 2023 so it is good.

I take one every 45 min on long bike rides. Saved me from bonking several times.

Good taste, easy to get down while running, requires only a sip of water afterwards, and greatly enhances performance.

My go to for long distance rides.

Easy to use. Like the flavor.

Me encanto el sabor, tiene un buen equilibrio entre los salado y dulce, es facil de tragar

Salted Caramel Gu is a gift from the heavens! I was only able to use chews/chops before trying this because many of the other gels would upset my stomach. I wanted to transition into gels because carrying around a marathons worth of chomps can become a bit bulky. There are a lot of decent flavored gels out there but this one wins on flavor and ease of digestion. I have been tempted to have one as a snack, thats how delicious they are.

The flavor is so good. I use it on my long bike rides and it really does its job. Gives me a steady boost without a hard sugar type crash.
