HIGH5 Energy Gels - Quick Release Sports Gels to Power Muscles for Peak Performance - Natural Fruit Juice & Caffeine-Free - On The Go Energy Boost for Running, Cycling and Endurance (Berry, 20 x 40g)

Use these for my diabetic hypos. Very sugary and fast acting. Berry flavour tastes a bit like a very sugary strawberry/rasberry fromage frais yoghurt. Great price when on sale, which they often are!

Very nice taste and easy to consume! Delivery time was good, all contents there. Perfect for your long runs or high intensity exercise

These gels do what they claim, but don’t fall into the same trap I did and assume they offer some sort of magical, scientifically enhanced performance boost. Spoiler: they’re basically glorified glucose syrup in a fancy packet. Nutritionally, one gel has the same benefit as 3-4 Jelly Babies - except the Jelly Babies don’t make your bank account cry. 80p per gel vs 9-12p per 3-4 Jelly Babies Yes, there are "electrolytes" listed on these, but it’s essentially a polite pinch of sea salt - about the same amount you’d get if you touched a crisp and licked your finger. Not exactly a replacement for HIGH5 Zero hydration tablets (which I highly recommend). In fairness, gels are handy during long endurance events, especially when chewing becomes a life-or-death negotiation. But for normal training, Jelly Babies are the far superior option. They’re cheaper, tastier, easier to carry, and don’t leave your gym bag covered in sticky regret. In short: great for races, unnecessary for everyday use… unless you really enjoy funding the sports nutrition industry’s holiday homes.

Great for running and cycling as easy on the stomach

Really nice taste, handy size pack first it pocket. Easy open design and able to squeeze out with zero waste

I tried these HIGH5 energy gels during a few long runs and cycling sessions, and while they do provide the quick carbohydrate boost they promise, the flavour really let me down. The gels are advertised as using natural fruit juice and caffeine, which sounded appealing, but in practice, the taste is overly artificial and somewhat unpleasant. It’s hard to enjoy consuming them mid-run, especially when you need to hydrate and fuel efficiently without gagging. In terms of performance, the gels do their job. I felt a noticeable pick-me-up about 15–20 minutes after consumption, which helped me maintain energy during endurance activity. They are easy to open and consume on the go, and the pouch design is convenient for carrying in pockets or running belts. The texture is smooth, so there are no issues with chunks or thick consistency that can be hard to swallow while exercising. However, the unpleasant taste is a consistent drawback. Even with plenty of water, the flavour lingers and makes repeated use during a workout less enjoyable. Additionally, for the price, I expected a slightly better flavour profile, especially given that these are meant to be used repeatedly during long endurance sessions. Overall, these gels are effective for energy and endurance, but the taste significantly impacts the experience. If flavour is important to you, you may want to consider other options, but if you prioritize quick carbohydrate delivery, they do work.

These energy gels are fantastic! I swear by the High 5 products for running. They are easy to open, the consistency is much easier to swallow mid-run, compared to other energy gels on the market. They are also really good value for money. Highly recommend!

Does the job

This helped me refuel and get an extra boost on the last part of my first 10K! Great taste and you don’t need water with it. I chose Berry. Very happy to have this on my long runs.

Soy usuario de la marca High5, compré estos geles tipo hidrogel ( no necesitan agua) porque nunca los había probado y el resultado ha sido espectacular. Sabor buenísimo, se diluye rápidamente en la boca sin necesidad de agua, por su reducido tamaño se puede portar en cualquier pequeño bolsillo, y su sistema de apertura muy sencillo , solo tienes que dar un leve tirón y ya puedes tomártelo. Lo he probado en carreras de resistencia de más de dos horas y el aporte de glucosa es bastante bueno, la recuperación ideal, te da un extra de energía. Muy buen producto

Always use these energy gels as an athlete, definitely recommend!

Gli ho provati per la prima volta durante questa estate, sono soddisfatto ottimo il sapore per quanto mi riguarda e la sensazione di un po' di energia quando le forze mancano c'è. Continuerò ad utilizzarlo
