Umara U Gel Liquid Energy Gel 能量啫喱

U GEL is our self-composed energy gel. With a composition of 50/50 between energy and liquid, it is easy-flowing and provides 30g of carbohydrates + electrolytes, with the same stomach-friendly carbohydrate composition of 1:0.8 as U SPORT has. 

Available in Peach, Mango, Forest Berries and Blackcurrants. 

The Forest Berries and Blackcurrant flavors have 30mg of caffeine, which is an adapted amount of caffeine to maintain the levels in the body when consuming 1-2 caffeine-rich gels per hour. 

How to USE:

Recommended dosage is 1-3 gels per hour, which gives 30-90g of carbohydrates per hour.
The gel is easy-flowing, so you do not need to drink water in connection with intake. The gel contains all 4 major electrolytes that you lose through sweat (Sodium, Potassium, Calcium and Magnesium) in a well-balanced amount.

Should I take caffeine gel at the beginning or end of training/competition? 

Gel with caffeine should be taken continuously throughout the activity. We recommend 1-2 caffeine gels per hour, which gives a maintenance dose of caffeine equivalent to half a cup of coffee per hour, which means that you maintain the caffeine level in your body if you loaded up with caffeine via e.g. U INTEND before the start. A caffeine gel late into the session/competition can also have an extra invigorating effect at the end of a long race.

How many can I take per hour?

You can take up to 5 U GEL per hour, but it only really works when cycling. When running, the recommendation is 3-4 U GEL per hour if it is your only source of energy.

How quickly does U GEL provide energy? 

A psychological/neurological invigorating effect takes place directly in the oral cavity, then it takes 5-10 minutes for the energy to pass through the stomach and reach the small intestine, where the uptake of carbohydrates for further transport into the bloodstream and muscles begins and we can begin to feel the effect.
