U Gel
Product description
U Gel 1:0.8 is a liquid gel of 33ml with a carbohydrate composition of glucose (maltodextrin) and fructose at a 1:0.8 ratio. Each gel provides 20g of carbohydrates + electrolytes. Flavors marked with a "+" sign indicate that they contain caffeine. This rule applies across our entire range, and for this product, it's the Cola gel that contains 21mg of caffeine.
The gel is easy-flowing, so there's no need to drink water when consuming it. The gel contains all four major electrolytes lost through sweating (Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, and Magnesium) in a well-balanced amount.
Packaged in a slim packaging of 160x45mm, sized to fit well in both bike pockets and running tights. It is filled just enough that it can be folded lengthwise once if you prefer it shorter.
Developed by Biomedical Scientists in Sweden. Manufactured according to HACCP / GMP standards.
All ingredients are approved by the EFSA (European Food Safety Authority).
100% vegan.
Questions & Answers
Should I take caffeine gel at the beginning or end of training/competition? Caffeine gel should be taken continuously throughout the activity. We recommend 1-2 caffeine gels per hour, which provides a maintenance dose of caffeine equivalent to half a cup of coffee per hour, maintaining caffeine levels in the body if you have pre-loaded with caffeine, e.g., U Intend, before starting. A caffeine gel late in the session/competition can also have an extra energizing effect towards the end of a long race.
How many can I take per hour? You can take up to 5 U Gels per hour, but this is almost only feasible during cycling. For running and skiing, the recommendation is 3-4 U Gels per hour if it's your only source of energy.
How quickly does U Gel provide energy? A psychological/neurological energizing effect occurs immediately in the mouth, after which it takes 5-10 minutes for the energy to pass through the stomach and reach the small intestine where the absorption of carbohydrates for further transport into the bloodstream and muscles begins, and we can start to feel the effect.
