According to the product specialist
Pros
| The Dual Carb formula with a 2:1 glucose-fructose ratio enables a maximum carb uptake of 90 grams an hour. |
| The added sodium contributes to proper moisture absorption and makes you feel thirsty so you'll continue to hydrate during exercise. |
| When opening the packaging, you won't lose the tear-off strip due to the so-called "Trash Chain". |
| Some PowerGel flavours contain caffeine (51 mg each): Black Currant, Green Apple and Espresso. |
| Due to their highly fluid consistency, you can ingest these Hydro gels without drinking any water. |
| The Dual Carb formula with a 2:1 glucose-fructose ratio enables a maximum carb intake of an impressive 90 grams an hour. |
| The added sodium (approx. 200 mg per gel) contributes to proper moisture absorption and makes you feel thirsty, so that you won't forget to drink while you're on the road. |
| Some Hydro gels contain caffeine: the flavours Cola (100 mg per gel), Cherry (51 mg per gel) and Mojito (51 mg per gel). |
| Due to their isotonic concentration, the SiS gels are quickly and easily absorbed by the body. |
| The SiS Go Isotonic Energy Gels can be taken without water or a sports drink. This makes them ideal during high-intensity workouts when it is difficult to drink large amounts of water. |
| The low concentration makes this gel suitable for cyclists with a sensitive digestive tract. |
| The tear-off strip makes the gel easy to consume while you're cycling. |
| The SiS Go Energy + Electrolyte Gel can be taken without the accompaniment of water or sports drinks. Ideal during intense exercise, when it's hard to drink large amounts of water. |
| Ideal during intense efforts when it is difficult to drink large amounts of water. |

Cons
| Due to the high carbohydrate concentration, it is recommended to take this gel with a few sips of water. |
| The added caffeine makes the Black Currant, Green Apple and Espresso PowerGels unsuitable for children under the age of 18 and pregnant women. |
| The added caffeine makes the Cola, Cherry and Mojito Hydro gels unsuitable for children under the age of 18 and pregnant women. |
| Because of the rapid absorption this gel is less suitable for efforts which require long-burning fuel. |
| Texture can vary between gels, but fortunately this isn't an indication that the gel has expired. |
| Due to their high absorption rate, energy gels are less suitable for supplying long-term energy needs. |
| The structure can vary between gels, luckily this isn't an indicator of the gel's shelf life. |
