Huma Plus (Double Electrolytes) - Chia Energy Gel, Orange Mango, 12 Gels - Stomach Friendly, Real Food Energy Gels

I used to used GU’s in high school for cross country meets and had gone back to them when I started running longer distances after graduation. I’ve been training for the 50K distance for the past year and started experimenting with nutrition. I tried skratch chews, honey stinger waffles, honey stinger chews, health warrior chia bars, bolt chews, the list goes on. Some were okay, but I still found it hard to stomach any of those options after 15 miles. I ordered the variety plus pack of hüma gels to try them out and I LOVED them. GU gels had been great because they had good flavor and gave me energy without having to chew solid food. However, I always felt like I was choking it down because it was similar to the consistency of peanut butter - it would make my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth, it coated the inside of my mouth (nasty feeling), and I always had to follow it with a lot of water to feel like I could breathe again without my tongue sticking to the roof of my mouth. The Hüma gels are not like that at all. They have a great texture (as others have said, similar to applesauce) and are easy to eat while running! I’m pretty picky about flavors (I don’t like banana, mango, blueberry, etc.), but I actually liked all of the flavors and there were flavors like banana, mango, and blueberry. I was really surprised that I liked all of them, but it was a pleasant surprise. They aren’t too sweet so they don’t upset my stomach like some of the other nutrition options I listed. They’re easy to carry, easy to eat, and provide a good energy boost. I’m about to order my third variety pack and I’ll definitely stick with these gels.

This is one of the only fuels I have found that doesn't upset my stomach and tastes great.It keeps me going on lingerie runs.

I have stomach issues with long runs. This gel has been well tolerated, the electrolytes much needed in hot weather and caffeine free. I had a hard time finding gels without caffeine. I am not a fan of too sweet and this one isn't. It's pleasantly tart.

I like these gels. I’ve been using them for a couple of years. All of the flavors are good, even ones I would normally go for (I just get the variety pack every time). However, the packet is just a bit too large for the contents. I learned today that this makes them more difficult to consume while peddling than is necessary. I forgot to bring some for my ride today and had to stop at a shop and pick up some alternatives. I ended up with some “GU” packets. Those packets seemed to be just big enough for the contents and it was a LOT easier to consume on the go.I have no intention of switching, because I like the natural ingredients of these and that they are not sweetened with table sugar or some sort of high fructose syrup. I just hope they can be revised for easier on the go usage.

best tasting gels and not too thickgood for running and easy to carry multiple

These actually taste pretty decent. If you drink enough water with them, you'll be hydrated as can be.

Excellent electrolyte replacement with a good amount of carbs for long distance running. I used to use Gu but it always affected my stomach this brand however does not give me any issues. In addition I feel that the price point is better than maurten or other high quality performance products. Just tuck it in the flip belt or pocket and go!

I struggle to find gels and fulling options for my runs until I found Humma gels. Now I used them for may Ironman training and races. They have many flavors and they are all tasty. I like the varity pack beacuse I never get tired of mixing flavors. Great fulling option for races and endurance training.

Excelente

Totalmente un fiasco. La caja llegó con el cartón húmedo y aguado y desde ahí lo sospeché. Cuando abro para ver el contenido los geles estaban chorreados en toda la tapa del empaque. Exijo la devolución de mi dinero. Una basura.

Me ayudaron bastante en mi preparación para mi primer maratón, todo bien aunque algo caros para el mercado

It taste really well. Using it for my 25km run and did not face any GI issue. Will consider to try this and Spring Energy for this year end marathon.

Excelente producto
