GU Energy - Roctane Energy Gel - Chocolate Coconut, 32g

GU Roctane Energy Gel stands out from the original GU Energy Gel with more sodium and amino acids. Sodium is an electrolyte that aids in hydration and the branched-chain amino acids (L-Leucine, L-Valine and L-Isoleucine) reduce mental fatigue and decrease muscle damage. The amino acid beta-alanine helps promote formation of the intramuscular buffer carnosine, while the amino acid Taurine helps promote heart contractility and improve cardiac output during long exercise sessions. Each 100-calorie serving contains carbohydrates (maltodextrin and fructose) that use non-competing pathways to maximize carbohydrate absorption and utilization while diminishing stomach distress.

Ingredients and Advantages of the GU Roctane Energy Gel

• Carbohydrates (both complex and simple carbohydrates) for ready-to-use energy
• Sodium, the primary electrolyte lost in sweat that aids in hydration by maintaining fluid balance
• BCAAs, which may reduce mental fatigue and decrease muscle damage while jump-starting recovery
• Taurine, which can help maintain heart contractility and improve cardiac output during long exercise sessions
• Beta-alanine, that can help promote formation of the intramuscular buffer carnosine, which can help delay the onset of fatigue during high-intensity efforts
• Some flavors contain caffeine
• Very tasty and easy to take
• Vegan, gluten-free and even suitable for diabetics
