Espresso Love is the ideal flavor for a busy athlete. This flavor will remind you of a bold, rich, dark-roasted cup of joe – so good you might just sip on the gel like it’s a lazy Saturday morning. Plus, with 40mg of caffeine, it’s perfect for those early morning workouts. Love is in the name, and it’s also in the recipe, because here at GU, one of our six core values is love.
"Created for daily training and competition, GU Energy Gels are packed full of energy-dense calories to help sustain the energy demands of any duration or activity. The 100-calorie packet contains carbohydrates (maltodextrin and fructose) that use non-competing pathways to help maximize carbohydrate absorption and utilization while diminishing stomach distress. Sodium, the primary electrolyte lost in sweat, aids in hydration by maintaining water balance. The branched-chain amino acids (leucine, valine, isoleucine) help reduce mental fatigue and decrease muscle damage.
Most importantly, GU Energy Gels taste great and come in lots of delicious flavours. Whether you enjoy the morning wake up of Espresso Love or the fresh and fruity Triberry, you’ll find a flavour that is right for you.
