A 60ml sachet, to be consumed during a race or training. SiS GO Isotonic Energy Gel Pineapple provides 22 grams of carbohydrates per sachet from maltodextrin, with no need to drink water. The flavour is a crisp pineapple note with a slightly refreshing character. Gluten-free and aspartame-free, suitable for vegans, certified by Informed Sport.
Isotonic is a scientific term indicating that a liquid has the same concentration as the cells in your body. For an energy gel, this means that the stomach does not need to draw in additional fluid to dilute the gel before passing it on. This is what happens with most classic gels, and which sometimes causes a feeling of bloating. With an isotonic gel, the product leaves the stomach faster and carbohydrates are available more quickly. SiS introduced this principle in 2002, a world first for an energy gel. In 2015, the product won the Queen's Award for Enterprise.
The energy source in this product is maltodextrin, derived from corn starch. Maltodextrin has a lower sweetening power than regular sugar, which makes the gel less sticky and less intense in taste. This is a deliberate choice. During prolonged exertion, taste fatigue is a real problem, and a gel that is too sweet then works against you. Per 60 ml sachet, you get 22 grams of carbohydrates with only 0.6 grams of sugar. No significant amounts of fats or proteins.
Since the gel is isotonic, you don't need to drink water with it. This makes the gel usable when a bottle or aid station is not at hand. You can consume it during a sprint, in the middle of a climb, or mid-race without having to adapt your pace. Take 1 to 3 gels per hour to reach the recommended 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour. For a 3h30 marathon, this represents 10 to 12 gels in total.
All SiS GO gels are batch tested by Informed Sport for banned substances on the WADA list. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians, gluten-free and aspartame-free. Flavours are of natural origin. No artificial colours in most flavours, with the exception of the orange variant which contains beta-carotene.
The pineapple flavour is one of the most refreshing variants in the range, easy to combine with other flavours if you plan longer sessions with several gels per hour. The formula is identical in each flavour; only the flavouring and any colouring differ.
SiS introduced this gel in 2002 as the world's first isotonic energy gel. In 2015, the product won the Queen's Award for Enterprise. Isotonic means that the concentration of the gel is equal to that of your blood and cells, allowing the stomach to process it quickly without drawing additional fluid.
Most energy gels require you to drink water. This one does not. The isotonic formula means the gel exits the stomach quickly without additional fluid. Less risk of feeling bloated during exercise, more focus on your pace.
Aim for 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour during prolonged exercise. This equates to 3 gels per hour during intensive use. Each gel provides 22 grams of maltodextrin-based carbohydrates, with virtually no sugar (0.6 grams). To be combined with other SiS products in your nutrition plan.
All SiS GO Gels are tested batch by batch for banned substances by Informed Sport. Suitable for vegans, gluten-free, aspartame-free. No artificial flavours.

Isotonic means that the gel has the same osmolality as your blood and cells. This means that the stomach does not need to draw in extra fluid to process it, which is normally necessary with concentrated gels. As a result, the gel leaves the stomach faster and carbohydrates become available more quickly. You also don't need to drink water with it.
Tear off the top of the sachet and squeeze the contents directly into your mouth. Start taking it during efforts lasting more than 45 to 60 minutes. Take 1 to 3 gels per hour, depending on intensity and duration. In cold weather, your needs may be higher. You do not need to drink water with it, although you can.
No, that's precisely the point. The isotonic formula makes an extra sip of water superfluous. This is useful when you don't want to stop at every aid station during a race or if you don't have a water bottle. Of course, drink normally throughout the day, but the gel itself works without additional liquid.
For efforts lasting more than an hour, the recommendation is 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour. This equates to 3 gels per hour at the upper limit. For a 3h30 marathon, you would therefore need 10 to 12 gels in total. If you combine them with other foods, adjust the number of gels accordingly.
Maltodextrin is a carbohydrate derived from corn starch. It has a low sweetening power compared to regular sugar, which makes the gel less sticky and less intensely sweet than sugar-based gels. Your body quickly converts it into glucose. This is precisely why it is used in sports energy gels.
Classic gels are often concentrated and hypertonic, meaning your stomach draws in fluid to dilute the gel. This takes time and increases the risk of gastric upset. SiS GO gel is isotonic, so this step is eliminated. The result: faster absorption and less risk of bloating. This makes a difference during intense exercise or if you have a sensitive stomach.
