About Strawberry Banana
Strawberry Banana is a non-caffeinated fruit flavour in the GU Original Energy Gel range. GU describes it as having mellow banana notes followed by strawberry, creating a flavour profile similar to a strawberry-banana smoothie.
Because Strawberry Banana is non-caffeinated, it can be useful for athletes who prefer carbohydrate fuel without adding caffeine to their fuelling plan.
Non-Caffeinated Energy Gel
GU Original Energy Gel Strawberry Banana is a non-caffeinated option. It provides carbohydrate, sodium and GU's amino acid blend without the caffeine found in some other GU Original flavours.
This can make Strawberry Banana useful for athletes who avoid caffeine, want to manage caffeine separately or prefer to alternate between caffeinated and non-caffeinated gels during longer sessions.
How to Use GU Original Energy Gel
GU recommends taking an Energy Gel approximately 5 minutes before activity with a few sips of water. During exercise lasting longer than one hour, GU recommends approximately one Energy Gel every 20–30 minutes while continuing to hydrate.
Individual carbohydrate, fluid and sodium needs vary according to exercise duration, intensity, environmental conditions and personal tolerance. Practise your fuelling strategy during training before race day.
