Overview

Is the SiS Beta Fuel Gel 30-Pack worth it for endurance training and racing?

The SiS Beta Fuel Gel 30-Pack is the full-season supply of the most advanced endurance gel on the market: 40g of dual-source carbohydrates per gel in a scientifically validated 1:0.8 maltodextrin-to-fructose ratio, isotonic formula, no water required. The ratio matters because it allows your body to use two different gut carbohydrate transporters simultaneously, increasing oxidation efficiency to 74% compared to 62% with single-source gels, and supporting sustained intake of 80 to 120g of carbohydrate per hour. Science in Sport demonstrated this with elite endurance athletes achieving peak carbohydrate oxidation rates of 1.58g per minute during three-hour cycling efforts, the highest ever reported.

The 30-pack gives you enough supply for a full training block or race season without constantly restocking. Available in Strawberry and Lime and Orange. Use one gel every 20 to 30 minutes during efforts lasting two or more hours, combining with Beta Fuel drink mix and chews to vary format and hit carbohydrate targets. Informed Sport certified, every batch independently tested against the WADA banned substances list. If Beta Fuel is part of your regular race nutrition, this is the format to buy.
