HIGH5Energy Gel Aqua - Quick Release Sports Gels to Power Muscles for Top Performance - Natural Fruit Juice & No Caffeine - On The Go Energy Boost for Running, Cycling and Endurance (Berry, 20 x 66g)

For somebody who finds most gels too "thick", the Aqua one feels more like drink than a gel. It's fruity, gentle on a stomach and, most importantly, boost energy mid-long-run.

The high5 gels are a great way to get a quick fix of energy if you are doing along ride or run they are fast-acting have a great taste and are very easy to swallow and at the price, I bought them for they were a good buy. I would buy them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a quick and refreshing energy fix on the go.

I prefer the gel ones. These Aqua Liquid ones are a lot runnier and more refreshing but not so good to handle.. As a diabetic, I love the gel ones as they are so easy to handle and very fast acting. When my blood sugar is low, I find it more difficult to control the runny Aqua liquid and end up spilling a lot (low blood sugar causes poor co-ordination).I will return to buying the tubes of energy gel (same company) instead.

Great tasting gels and helped me through my marathon training

The aqua gels go down much better than the normal ones. They taste like concentrated squash.The berry is a bit artificial but fine.Have seen other reviews stating the packaging was weak but I think that is old as I've had 2 boxes with no problems.Best gels in my opinion

Firstly the flavour is good. Pretty much tastes like berry and easy to drink. There is a category on thickness which I think I might be storing this wrong as I leave this in a cupboard because it’s completely watery rather than a gel.My main problem is my refuelling process is awful so by the time I take any type of energy gel or food I’m usually completely rinsed out and missing the full benefit.I’m giving 5 stars mainly because it taste like berries and was cheap upon purchase. It doesn’t bother me that it is watery as it’s actually easier to consume but maybe it’ll taste better if it was thicker like gel.

I like the way thickness is measured – I gave thickness 5 stars but don’t know if thick is good or bad, but anyway this is a quality energy booster and the taste is great. Not all are. The only issue is price – I thought this particular deal was pretty good but shop around for the best. The real reason I’m writing this review is to counter a claim made by another reviewer who said using these means he doesn’t need to carry water. Well, if he’s running less than 10km then I’m sure you don’t need to carry water anyway, but these are not a fluid substitute. You think they’re a fluid because they’re a gel but your body treats it like food. So these gel energy products are a booster only, never a water substitute. Good luck out there. I’m just putting off going for a run...

Although they taste good and are easy to take on the run, I’m not quite getting the same effect as when I use SIS
