Description

We've run the numbers for you. One gel, every 30 minutes. Puresport’s Energy Gel Variety Pack is designed for runners and endurance athletes who want simple, effective fuelling. Each gel delivers 30g of DualCarb™ energy in a precise 1:0.8 glucose-to-fructose ratio, supporting sustained performance and reducing gut discomfort. Featuring both Berry and Natural Orange flavours; refreshing, easy to take mid-run, and made with natural ingredients to help you fuel smarter, train stronger, and recover faster, every 30 minutes. Available in 6-pack, 12-pack, 24-pack & 48-pack sizes.

Key benefits

Consistent fuelling is essential for endurance, performance, and recovery. During runs over 60 minutes, the body burns through stored carbohydrates, leading to fatigue and slower recovery if not replenished. Puresport Energy Gels provide 30g of DualCarb™ energy in an optimal glucose-to-fructose ratio, helping you sustain energy, avoid gut discomfort, and bounce back faster. Designed with runners in mind, the light, natural flavours make fuelling simple, enjoyable, and effective, in training and on race day.

Full ingredients list

Maltodextrin
A fast-releasing carbohydrate derived from natural starch. It provides quick, accessible energy to help maintain performance during longer runs and intense training.

Fructose
A naturally occurring sugar that complements maltodextrin by using a different absorption pathway in the gut. Together, they form Puresport’s DualCarb™ system for smoother digestion and more efficient fueling.

Gelling Agent (Pectin)
A natural fibre found in fruits, used to create a smooth, easy-to-take texture. It helps the gel go down comfortably without stickiness or heaviness mid-run.

Sorbus aucuparia L. (Rowan Berry Extract)
A botanical extract rich in natural antioxidants. Included to support gut comfort and reduce irritation during endurance exercise

Other ingredients:
Water
Magnesium Citrate
Sodium Chloride
Acidity Regulator (Citric Acid)
Natural Orange Flavouring
Natural Mixed Berry Flavouring

Frequently asked questions

Who are energy gels for?
For runners and endurance athletes who want simple, effective fuelling without the jargon. Whether you’re training for a 10K or a marathon, it’s designed to help you stay energised and comfortable during sessions over 60 minutes.

How long will it last?
Each gel provides enough fuel for 30 minutes of running. For sessions over an hour, take one gel every 30 minutes to stay in your optimal performance zone.

Energy Gels – Variety (6 Pack): 6 servings (3 of each flavour)
Energy Gels – Variety (12 Pack): 12 servings (6 of each flavour)
Energy Gels – Variety (24 Pack): 24 servings (12 of each flavour)

How long before I notice the benefits?
You’ll feel the energy boost within 5–10 minutes of taking a gel. When used consistently in training, you’ll teach your body to absorb and use carbohydrates more efficiently, helping you recover faster, maintain steady energy, and perform better run after run.

How to take

For runs lasting 60 minutes or more, take one gel every 30 minutes- for example:

30-minute run: no gel required
60-minute run: 1 gel at 30 minutes
90-minute run: 1 gel at 30 minutes, another at 60 minutes

Always train with your gels before race day to help your body absorb carbohydrates efficiently and avoid gut discomfort.

Why do I need gels?

Your body’s stored carbs run out in about 90 minutes. Gels top up your energy so you avoid “the wall” and keep moving strong.

How does it work?

Each gel delivers 30g of carbs in a gut-friendly glucose–fructose blend, so you absorb more energy with less stomach stress.

When do I take it?

If you’re exercising for 60 minutes or more, take one every 30 minutes to keep energy steady and support recovery.

Why Puresport?

Most gels are overcomplicated. Ours are simple: natural flavourings, nothing unnecessary.

ExoAnalytics Testing: The Science Behind “We’ve Run the Numbers for You”

What We Did

We partnered with Dr Sam Impey and ExoAnalytics, experts in performance nutrition, to test how much of the carbohydrate from our gels is actually used as fuel during exercise.

How It Works

Athletes consumed Puresport Gels during controlled runs, with each gel traced using Carbon-13 isotopes. Breath samples showed exactly how much carbohydrate was burned for energy versus what stayed in the gut.

What We Found

The group’s average oxidation rate was 49 g/hour. When adjusted for real-world efficiency (≈80%), that equals 60 g/hour— perfectly matching our guidance:one gel every 30 minutes.

What It Means for Runners

Most runners perform best fuelling at~60 g/hour. One Puresport Gel every 30 minutes keeps energy steady, delays fatigue, and speeds up recovery between sessions.

Reviews

I’ve been using the Berry

"I’ve been using the Berry Energy Gels on my runs, and they’ve quickly become my go-to. First thing I look for is how they sit on the stomach, and these are spot on. No discomfort, no heaviness, just steady energy when I need it. The consistency is easy to take mid-run without breaking stride, and the flavour is actually enjoyable without being overly sweet or artificial. I’ve used them on both shorter sessions and longer runs, and they give a reliable lift without any crash. For me, that consistency is key, especially when you’re pushing pace or going the distance. Simple, effective, and easy to use. Exactly what you want from an energy gel."

— James C. (5/5)

Best tasing and best texture

"Best tasing and best texture I’ve had in a gel. Some can be lumpy, too thick or empty in taste but this is perfect. Works well too but my only gripe with it is the design of the packaging. It Seem really hard to tear open and there is like an additional tab so you can tear it open and the tear off doesnt fall away and get left on the road somewhere, problem is, it never works. . it’s so hard to open I end up ripping both parts. Sounds very small yes, but when you’re an hour or so into a run and need to stay focused, this little task gets really annoying."

— Matthew B. (4/5)

Tried a few times now,

"Tried a few times now, seems to be kind on the stomach - and the taste is great! I think being able to mix the flavours should help too. I initially bought the variety pack to decide which flavour I'd prefer, but I think I'll stick with this! These gels will fuel my marathon soon! My only suggestion would be to add a version with caffeine in."

— Jacob M. (5/5)

Very nice flavour and seem

"Very nice flavour and seem to given me the energy I need. I like that the tear off tab has an extra bit so it doesn’t come all the way off - very good as sometimes they’re hard to keep hold of when you want to keep running whilst you fuel."

— Sandy C. (5/5)

Love the burst of flavour,

"Love the burst of flavour, especially the raspberry. Very sweet but a great boost. Usually use these for long sessions during my marathon training, alternating with unflavoured gels"

— Lusa L. (5/5)

First try of these Gels.

"Taste is considerably nicer than other brands, extremely sweet which is nice, I look forward to the gel. Easy to open packaging. Easy on the stomach. Smooth texture not difficult to swallow."

— Andrew H. (5/5)

Great consistency and usual efficient

"Great consistency and usual efficient fueling effect, but the flavour is not my favorite, as it tastes more like the base components and still very sweet. I prefer the citrus and berry flavours"

— Ines M. (4/5)

I have bought these to

"I have bought these to start adjusting to using gels on my longer runs. I bought the orange flavour and it tastes really good! They didn’t upset my stomach in any way! Will definitely repurchase!"

— Tasmin W. (5/5)

Really yummy gels that provide

"Really yummy gels that provide the perfect amount of carbs and sugars to keep me going on long runs (15km and over)! Flavours are spot on and I don’t feel like I have to chew them to get them down. A great energy boost!"

— Abbie C. (5/5)
