HIGH5 Energy Gel Blackcurrant with 23 g Carbohydrates
23 grams of carbohydrates per 40-gram sachet, equivalent to 91 kcal. Made with natural fruit juice, caffeine-free, and suitable for vegans. Light, liquid consistency that is easy to consume during exercise. The Blackcurrant flavour has a deep, full blackcurrant taste with a distinctive sweet-and-sour note. Pronounced fruity character. Sold in boxes of 20 sachets.
How the gel tastes and what is in it
The carbohydrates come from glucose syrup and maltodextrin, two glucose-based carbohydrates. The flavour comes from blackcurrant juice concentrate instead of artificial flavourings. HIGH5 Energy Gel is deliberately thinner and lighter in texture than many competing gels, making it easier to consume the gel quickly without a full or sticky feeling. Free from artificial sweeteners and colourings.
When and how to use the gel
HIGH5 Energy Gel is designed for use before and during exercise. Tear the top of the sachet and consume the gel directly, preferably with some water. During prolonged exercise such as running, cycling, or triathlon, you can use 1 to 3 gels per hour, depending on the intensity. One gel provides 23 grams of carbohydrates. Preferably test it in training before using it in a race.
