Each 40ml sachet carries 25g of carbohydrate, in a 2:1 ratio of maltodextrin to fructose. The two are absorbed by different routes through the gut wall, so the body can take on more fuel per hour than glucose alone allows. Because maltodextrin does most of the work, only 9.9g of the 25g is sugar.

There is 50mg of caffeine per sachet. At 50mg you can take one late in a race without accounting for the rest of your day. Three across a marathon comes to 150mg. Easy maths.

There is 125mg of sodium. Sodium is the electrolyte lost in the greatest quantity in sweat, and the gel puts some of it back while it fuels you.

The flavour is cola. It is dark rather than overly sweet, which is worth something at the point in a long run when sweet things stop being welcome.

Twelve sachets covers a marathon and the long runs before it.

Directions. One to three gels per hour of exercise, depending on intensity and individual tolerance. Do not exceed 20 gels per day.

Ingredients. Water, maltodextrin, fructose, acidity regulator (citric acid), sodium chloride, preservative (potassium sorbate), thickener (xanthan gum), caffeine, flavouring.
