GU Energy Gel - Tri Berry

I was truly nervous to try this but it was actually delicious. A great gel option as the weather cools off and the foliage starts to arrive!

Excellent customer service and product

Can’t go wrong with vanilla and this is one of my favorites!

Strawberry banana is my favorite so far! I love that this one doesn’t have caffeine but still keeps me super energized :)

I haven’t had gels in a very long time, but realized I needed a pick me up while running marathons. I was looking for a vegan gel and came across these. I’m so happy I tried them! Super yummy and gave me the energy I needed at miles 13 and 20! Great product, will definitely purchase again.

Tried the TRI-BERRY flavor, after other flavors that I like, this was a tasty treat. I like sweets. I have experimented with the energy gels' using', 'not using', 'after30 minutes' changing timing, on a controlled 33 mile route I pedal for workouts, consistent temperature, water intake and time of day; I have found that when I delay or skip the gels, I can tell the difference in energy/firepower. Ingesting a gel later is better than not, as I sense a pick up 5-6 miles down the route. Cold water, small recovery segments and GU gels have made a big difference in performance.

I have type 1 diabetes. These worked very well in keeping my blood glucose from dropping too low or going too high while on a bike ride. I took three packets over the course of the ride, and this was the best BG control I've had. I very much appreciate finding something that worked so well. They also taste good!

I am a very active type one diabetic and have always used glucose tabs or gels for lows (among other things). I have found that they treat the low but I feel worse after because my blood sugars spike then I crash back down. I started using Gu when I was going through the fire academy this winter, what a game changer! I would take one before a training evolution and not worry about my numbers dropping. In fact, my numbers stay almost perfectly straight, I have learned not to enter the carbs into my pump and it balances out. Now I keep 6-8 Gu in my turnout gear and just got back from 2 calls, my numbers were 135 when I got back to the station and I felt refreshed and ready to go back out! The electrolytes are an added bonus. At first I almost gagged when I tried it, but now I’m used to it and am a die hard fan! Raspberry lemonade is awesome and blackberry is too, but 40mg of caffeine is a bit too much. Salted watermelon is my go to.

Just finish a solo cycle tour > 800 miles. GU, especially with caffeine, really helped to assuage hunger and gave me the energy I needed. Especially great in the heat. Much less muscle cramps at night.

I have always used this before my track and cross country races, almost every time I PRed and the next day I did not feel sore at all! I recommended it to all my teammates and they loved it too!

These energy gels taste great and give me a boost when I'm doing long cycling sessions or out doing hiking, but you don't have to be an athlete to benefit from them, even just moderate cardio can get you very exhausted. It's been difficult to find a good energy option that's caffeine free, but these were fantastic! When it feels like I'm getting tired and I'm thinking about needing to cut my adventure short, I open up one of these and within 10 minutes I feel like I'm back! My muscles come back online and I feel like I can keep going as long as I want. Definitely made a fan out of me!

This new flavor is great refreshing and went dow easy! Plus it gives me energy, win win in my book!

Just starting to train for a multi day bike adventure. I have tried most flavors and I think the newest flavor is the best. More important it works.

Like many reviewers, I have Type 1 diabetes, insulin controlled for over 65 years. I am also a backpacker, and have learned that the exertion of toting a load of gear tends to result in low glucose, no matter how much I try to adjust my insulin dosage. When that happens, I need glucose easy and quick. Gu Energy Gel is my go to fix. And my favorite is Vanilla Bean. Please keep making it...all the new-fangled energy dots and shots just don't do the job.

I have been using GU since 1995 3 times a week and competitions weekends(BMX/Mtn)…you want the best….well you got the best! Stay True To GU!BRB524

I’m a diabetic on a pump and have occasional lows that are not corrected by tablets. Tablets also burn my throat which GU does not. It works great to get me thru a low and gives me time to get some protein. It packs in your purse or even in your bra and it is easy to open even when you are shakey and you can’t think straight. It even tastes good so even if you’re not thinking straight you will still want to eat it. I love it and would recommend it highly.

This product works great ! I use it for mountain biking and I am able to ride faster with less break time and fatigue . I also recover faster with less soreness. However it takes little bit of getting use to the consistency of the gu. I suggest consume the pack in small amounts. It’s also is sticky so try not to get it too much on your hands and fingers…but it wipes off easy with water. Once again this is a great product 👍🏾

I like these better than the Liquid gel ones.
