With a 1:0.8 glucose-to-fructose ratio, the Core Gel delivers energy through two absorption pathways, allowing your body to process more carbohydrates per hour while reducing the risk of gut overload.
200mg sodium combined with potassium, calcium, and magnesium works to replace electrolytes lost in sweat, helping to maintain fluid balance, muscle contraction, and overall endurance capacity.
With 24g of fast-absorbing carbs in every sachet, the Core Gel provides a steady stream of fuel to power long sessions, prevent energy dips, and support high-intensity performance.
The carefully balanced carb ratio and clean formulation minimise bloating, cramping, and nausea, letting athletes take on more fuel without digestive discomfort during demanding training or racing.
An unflavored profile paired with a neutral texture makes the gel easy to consume repeatedly, reducing sensory fatigue over hours of exercise. This makes stacking up to 4 gels per hour possible.
For efforts under 60 minutes or lower intensity sessions, take 1 gel (per hour). For 60–90 minutes at high intensity, aim for 2–3 gels per hour. For races or sessions over 90 minutes, fuel with 3–4 gels per hour.
The Core Carb Gel uses a dual-fuel 1:0.8 glucose-to-fructose ratio for faster absorption and reduced GI discomfort. It also contains 200mg of sodium, as well as potassium, magnesium and calcium for hydration and optimised muscle function.
With dual carbs and electrolytes, Core Gel covers both energy and hydration; so with water, it’s all you need to fuel throughout your race.
No, it’s unflavored to prevent taste fatigue allowing easy use of multiple gels for sessions or race days.

Yes, the dual-pathway carb system and neutral formula are built to minimise gut stress during high-intensity training.

"Used the gel a couple of times now on planned shorter runs. I find the taste a little too sweet, (hence 4 stars), consistency is a little thinner than previous gels I've used which is good as it's easier to take and it seems to do the job, provides good energy after around 20 minutes which is helpful. Basically a good product that does initial trial seems to do what I need. Haven't tried it on longer runs yet so don't have an opinion on gut reaction to multiple use."
"I struggled with gels for years - always made me ill, and I hated the overly sweet taste. Found Cadence Gels after starting with the cans - gave them a try, and I found the taste to be less insipid, easy to digest, and gave me great energy. I now use them on my longer cycling days and road/trail runs. Some extra salt in there makes a real difference too!"
"Somehow is flavorless which I thought would be gross but found it really easy to take during a hard workout. No issues with digestion"
"Everything was awesome except for it could use a bit of flavor but even the taste wasn’t unbearable. Cadence has yet another good working fuel product with clean ingredients."
"This was my first time using any kind of performance gel. It was different. These are good but at first I thought these were extremely sweet. The texture is nice and the consistency. Over all a good product."
"Great gel, ticks all the boxes. Easy to consume great texture, smooth consistency, great taste."
"Taste is great, no texture issues. Highly recommend for running"
"I found the cadence gels to work from the get go. During a longer run I found the gel to provide me with that extra boost needed to stop hitting the wall. One big thing was no stomach issues during or after consuming"
"I used it last Boston marathon and went amazing with me no GI problems and taste amazing"
"Thin and smooth consistency. I personally think it tastes like honey and gummy bears, which I love both. So easy to get down. I haven’t had something from Cadence that I didn’t absolutely love. Everything I’ve tried has become my new go to. Gels, drinks, electrolytes."
