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

I have Type 1 Diabetes and Gu is my go-to for treating low blood sugars. Dissolves quickly like juice, but not heavy to carry. My two favorite flavors are Espresso & Vanilla.

I’ve purchased a lot of GU but wanted to try a new flavor. I was not disappointed with the salted caramel. GU is my go to energy boost before and during any long run and when it tastes good it makes it even better. Love this product!

Love these things but I could see myself starting to make my own after awhile. Work great but it would be nice to find a cheaper option. Taste great!

This is the best flavor! I have tried every other flavor I could find, and this is the only one that I like the taste of and thats not too sweet for me. There is some caffeine in it, but not enough to upset my bowels, and I am VERY sensitive to caffeine (the GU Roctane has too much caffeine for me). Also, I have Ulcerative Colitis and this has not caused/worsened any flare ups.

I like the flavor of this product. It works well on longer bicycle rides. Really gives a shot of energy when you need it.

A few months ago I originally purchased the strawberry banana flavor. I personally though the taste was awful and the texture was so thick it was disgusting. I couldnt even swallow it straight out of the package, I had to chew on it and swish it around my mouth with water and then force it down my throat. I let one of my friends try it and we had to stop the workout because the taste made him sick. However, the Vanilla flavor does NOT have any of those problems. The flavor is great and you can really taste the vanilla flavor. One of my friends thought it was a little on the sweet side but I love it. It is also a lot thinner, I can easily stick it in my mouth and gulp it down without wasting any time. Gu is good stuff, I can feel the difference on longer rides and it definitely helps me maintain my level of performance.

Ive always been a powergel fan and decided to try GU this time. No regrets. Very tasty, easy to swallow during the runs, even in those cases you have no water, you can down the thick paste and ghet some waters few minutes after

I buy this product regularly because it provides the energy for those days that Im working out for more than one hour. Provides the energy without the added sugars of others products.

Perfect for long runs, easy to carry and gives a good morale and energy boost when running low on carbs

I have tried many other energy gels over the years and none have worked as well as GU. I recently started using GU for my long-distance runs and I love it. It gives me the kick I need and even some caffeine to keep me going. I also really like the Salted Caramel flavor. Because it is an energy gel it has to have salt in it. Sometimes this can taste odd, but with a flavor like Salted Caramel it tastes natural and that is amazing when you are ready for a boost during a workout.
