Made for demanding training and competition, GU Roctane Energy Gel is packed with more sodium and more branched-chain amino acids (leucine, valine, and isoleucine) than its original gels.
Sodium is an electrolyte that helps with hydration. Amino acid reduce mental fatigue and decrease muscle damage. The amino acid beta-alanine helps promote formation of the intramuscular buffer carnosine, while ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate helps promote muscle repair.
The 100-calorie packets contain carbohydrates (maltodextrin and fructose) that use non-competing pathways to help maximize carbohydrate absorption and utilization while diminishing stomach distress.
Each gel contains:
- 100 calories
- 1425mg amino acids
- 125-200mg Sodium
- 0-40mg caffeine
Note: Each flavour of GU Energy Gel include various amount of sodium, amino acids, and caffeine. Check label on package.
