Product Description
GU Energy Gel is specifically formulated to energize your body during exercise. Using GU during your regular workouts will keep your mind alert and active, and your muscles going strong. GU gives the most concentrated form of immediate energy with no stomach bulk or distress, is quickly and efficiently absorbed, and will maintain your blood sugar at the optimal level for a great workout start to finish. GU Energy Gel contains maltodextrin, the best complex carbohydrate for delivering energy to working muscles. GU also contains the optimal balance of carbohydrates for the body during exercise: 80% complex/20% simple. It is this balance of maltodextrin and fructose in GU that delivers a quick rise in blood sugar and maintains that glucose level for up to 45 minutes during exercise.

Good variety November 3, 2006

Like most users of GU, I run marathons. I chose this package because I wanted to find a flavor that I could stomach later in a race and this let me experiment. This package has eight separate flavors: orange, vanilla, espresso, berry, lemon-lime, chocolate, banana, and plain. I won't comment on the taste because that is an individual preference, however, I do prefer GU to Clif Shots, which to me are pastier and harder to get down without a good amount of water.
These are good September 19, 2007

GU Energy Gel, Chocolate Outrage - 24 Packets
This is a good product to use when you are training for a half marathon or a full one, and also during the race itself. I always take it when I run 10 miles or more. I carry it in pockets in my fitness shorts or shirt (they are coming out with more fitness clothes with pockets, and it's really convenient). It makes recovery faster and I find my legs feel a whole lot better if I take it. I also like that the caffeine in it is not that much. I can't even tolerate a small cup of coffee, but the amount of caffeine in GU is just enough to give me a little fast energy while running, without giving me a "caffeine rush". The chocolate outrage tastes pretty good too. It can be messy too, so be warned and have somewhere to put the empty packets (because you wont want to carry them in your hand). I wash it down with some fluids and stick the empty packet in the empty bottle. If the bottle is not empty, I put it in my pocket.

I really like gu energy gel because it helps me run long distances. It tastes better than any other energy gel I have tried.
P.S.However, I didn't like the fact that you charged me twice for shipping and handling because I thought it was going to be all on one ticket and I will never purchase from your company again.
Product Review - GU March 19, 2007
The Gu Energy Gel is a fantastic product. I got it at Amazon at a very good price when it was hard to get it from other stores.
Great flavor, great energy. March 27, 2007
Even the "plain" flavor was much better than I expected. I had my heart set on getting the Vanilla Bean, but it was often out of stock. I opted for to try other flavors to test others and was surprised by how good tasting they all were. I actually enjoy matching my workout moods with the different flavors! Now I will just get this mixed flavors box every time.
