According to the product specialist

Pros
As the Hydro gels have a highly liquid concentration, you take them without having to take a few additional sips of water.
The Dual Carb formula with a 2:1 glucose-fructose ratio enables a maximum carb intake of 90 grams an hour.
The added sodium (approx. 200 mg per gel) contributes to good moisture absorption and makes you feel thirsty so that you continue to hydrate during exercise.
Some Hydro gel flavours contain caffeine: Cola - 100 mg per gel; Cherry - 51 mg; Mojito - 51 mg.
Contains up to 150 mg of caffeine (depending on the flavour).
Due to their mild concentration, the SiS gels are quickly and easily absorbed by the body.
The tear-off strip makes it easy to consume the gel on the road.
The Dual Carb formula with a 2:1 glucose-fructose ratio enables a maximum carb intake of 90 grams an hour.
The added sodium contributes to good moisture absorption and makes you feel thirsty so that you continue to hydrate during exercise.
