A 60 ml gel with 40 grams of carbohydrates per sachet. SiS Beta Fuel Gel Strawberry and Lime delivers those carbohydrates in a 1:0.8 ratio maltodextrin to fructose, intended for exercise lasting more than two hours where you need 80 to 120 grams per hour. The flavor is a light strawberry-lime flavor with a fresh, tart undertone. Ready to use immediately, you don't need to mix anything. Gluten-free, suitable for vegans, Informed Sport certified.
The standard energy gel from SiS, the GO Isotonic, delivers 22 grams of carbohydrates per 60 ml. The Beta Fuel gel delivers 40 grams per that same 60 ml, from two sources in a ratio of 1:0.8 maltodextrin to fructose. For exercise lasting more than two hours, SiS recommends 80 to 120 grams of carbohydrates per hour. Two Beta Fuel gels per hour are enough for that. For the GO Isotonic gel you would need almost four pieces to achieve the same.
The gel contains maltodextrin and fructose in a ratio of 1:0.8. Maltodextrin is a carbohydrate from corn that is made up of glucose units; fructose is a simple sugar. Per 60 ml gel, that together delivers 40 grams of carbohydrates, of which 19 grams are sugars.
The Beta Fuel 80 powder sachet contains no sodium. The gel does: sodium citrate and sodium chloride are in the ingredients list. It is a modest amount of 0.04 grams of salt per gel, which also keeps the flavor balanced. During prolonged exercise where you sweat a lot, this does not replace all your sodium loss. Then add a HYDRO tablet or HYDRO+ sachet to your drinking water.
Two Beta Fuel gels per hour deliver 80 grams of carbohydrates. Three gels reach the upper limit of 120 grams. If desired, combine them with the Beta Fuel 80 sachet if you have a bottle with you, or use them purely as a gel strategy if you are riding or running without a bottle.
Twice as many carbohydrates as the GO Isotonic gel (22 grams), in a 1:0.8 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose. Two carbohydrate sources in one 60 ml gel.
The Beta Fuel 80 powder sachet contains no sodium. The Beta Fuel gels do: each gel contains a small amount of sodium from sodium citrate and sodium chloride. Not enough to serve as an electrolyte replacement during intense sweating, but enough to balance the flavor. For longer exercise, it is best to combine them with a HYDRO tablet or HYDRO+ sachet.
The gel is a 60 ml liquid product, ready to squeeze out. You don't need to dissolve or mix anything. With 1 to 3 gels per hour, you get the recommended 80 to 120 grams of carbohydrates without a shaker or powder. In addition, just keep drinking during your exercise.
All Beta Fuel gels are screened for prohibited substances on the WADA list by Informed Sport, batch by batch. No artificial colours in the formula. Free from gluten, lactose, wheat and nuts. Suitable for vegans.

The GO Isotonic gel provides 22 grams of carbohydrates from a single source (maltodextrin) per 60 ml gel. The Beta Fuel gel provides 40 grams of carbohydrates from two sources in a 1:0.8 ratio per 60 ml gel. The Beta Fuel gel is intended for exercise lasting more than two hours where you need 80 to 120 grams per hour. The GO gel is better suited for shorter sessions or as a supplement when carbohydrate needs are lower.
For the Beta Fuel range, SiS has chosen a ratio of 1:0.8 maltodextrin to fructose, so that both carbohydrate sources are present in almost equal amounts. Always test your carbohydrate intake in training first.
With the recommended 80 to 120 grams of carbohydrates per hour, you'll need 2 to 3 gels per hour, one every 20 to 30 minutes. If you combine them with the Beta Fuel 80 sachet, you add the carbohydrates together. A sachet provides 80 grams, a gel 40 grams. Adjust your intake to the intensity and duration of your effort, and always test this during training first, never for the first time on race day.
It is not mandatory; the gel works as a liquid product without extra water. However, it is wise to continue drinking water during prolonged exertion, separate from the gels. The gels contain a small amount of sodium, but with intensive sweating, this is not enough to maintain your electrolyte balance. In that case, use a HYDRO tablet or HYDRO+ sachet in addition to the gels.
This variant has a light strawberry-lemon flavor with a fresh, tart undertone. During long races or training sessions, you can alternate with other flavors from the Beta Fuel line if desired.
Maurten uses hydrogel technology with a similar carbohydrate ratio (fructose and maltodextrin) and is also isotonic. Maurten gels provide 25 grams of carbohydrates per gel (Maurten Gel 100 provides 100 grams but is larger). The Beta Fuel gel provides 40 grams per 60 ml. In terms of formula, the similarities are greater than the differences. The price difference is significant. Per gram of carbohydrate, the Beta Fuel gel is cheaper.
