How Many Chews Are in a GU Energy Chews Pouch?

A standard GU Energy Chews pouch is a double-serving bag. One serving is approximately 8 pieces (30g), so a full pouch contains approximately 16 chews across 2 servings.

The double-serving format allows you to consume a full serving at once or portion individual chews across your training session or race according to your fuelling plan.

Why Choose GU Energy Chews?

GU Energy Chews provide carbohydrate fuel in a soft, chewable format for athletes who prefer eating their fuel rather than consuming a gel. Because the pouch contains individual pieces, the chews can also be portioned progressively during training or racing.

Every flavour provides carbohydrate, sodium and a 420mg GU Amino Acid Blend containing the branched-chain amino acids L-Leucine, L-Valine and L-Isoleucine.

The range also offers meaningful formulation differences. Strawberry is the caffeinated option with 20mg caffeine per serving, while Salted Lime provides 125mg sodium per serving compared with 40mg in the other flavours.

How to Use GU Energy Chews

GU Energy Chews can be used before and during endurance activity as part of an individual fuelling strategy. Because each double-serving pouch contains individual chew pieces, you can consume a complete serving or divide the chews into smaller portions during exercise.

Take GU Energy Chews with water and practise your intended fuelling strategy during training before using it for an important race or event.
