Powerbar Fuel Gel 30 Cola-Orange + Caffeine Box is a practical large pack for those who regularly use a caffeinated energy gel during longer training sessions and competitions.

The carton contains twelve servings. Each gel provides:

30 g carbohydrates

100 mg caffeine

Approximately 205 mg of sodium

15 g sugars

Approximately 124 kcal

0.51g salt

The carbohydrates come from maltodextrin and fructose. Powerbar uses a 1:0.8 ratio between glucose and fructose sources and has developed Fuel Gel 30 for moderate to intense physical activity.

This caffeine variant should not be used for every energy intake during a long run. Powerbar's product instructions state a maximum of one caffeinated Fuel Gel 30 per day . Other planned carbohydrate intake should therefore come from caffeine-free gels, sports drinks, chews, bars or food.

The flavor combines classic cola with fruity orange. It provides a variation from traditional lemon, peach and berry flavors and makes the gel a clear caffeine alternative in the energy mix.

Ingredients

Water, maltodextrin, fructose, acidity regulators: citric acid, sodium citrate, salt, caffeine and natural flavor.

30 g carbohydrates per gel

Each serving provides 30 g of carbohydrates , making the product easy to combine with Powerbar's other Fuel products:

1 gel provides 30 g of carbohydrates

1 caffeine gel plus 1 caffeine-free Fuel Gel 30 gives 60 g

1 caffeine gel plus two decaffeinated 30-gram products yields 90 g

Fuel Gel 30 is part of the Powerbar system where products with 30, 60 and 90 grams of carbohydrates can be combined into an individual energy plan.

As this variant contains caffeine, multiple Cola-Orange + Caffeine gels should not be used to reach a high carbohydrate goal. Choose caffeine-free products for other intakes.

Ratio 1:0.8

Fuel Gel 30 combines maltodextrin and fructose in a ratio of 1:0.8 between the glucose and fructose sources .

A higher carbohydrate intake needs to be worked in gradually. Test the same products, amounts and times during regular training sessions before using the plan for an important race.

Calculate the carbohydrates from:

Energy gels

Sports drink

Energy chews

Energy bars

Purees

Carbohydrate-rich food

100 mg caffeine per gel

Each sachet contains 100 mg of caffeine . The product's declared caffeine content is 200 mg per 100 ml.

Add up the caffeine from all sources during the day:

Coffee

Tea and cola

Energy drink

Other caffeine gels

Caffeine tablets

PWO

Dietary supplements

Caffeine sensitivity varies. A serving of 100 mg can cause, for example, restlessness, tremors, stomach upset, palpitations or impaired sleep in sensitive people.

Do not test the product for the first time during an important race.

Maximum one gel per day

Powerbar's technical product information distinguishes between decaffeinated and caffeinated flavors:

Lemon, Cola-Orange, Peach and Grapefruit without caffeine: 1–3 sachets per hour as needed.

Lemon + Caffeine and Cola-Orange + Caffeine: maximum 1 sachet per day during intense physical activity.

The general recommendation of 1–3 Fuel Gel 30 per hour should therefore not be applied to this caffeine variant.

About 205 mg of sodium

Each gel contains approximately 205 mg of sodium and 0.51 grams of salt.

Sodium needs are affected by, among other things:

Temperature and humidity

Activity duration

Individual sweat rate

Sweat salinity

Fluid intake

Other sports nutrition

Also include sodium from sports drinks, electrolyte tablets, bars, and regular food. A higher amount of sodium is not automatically better.

Recommended use

Consume the gel directly from the sachet.

Use it as a planned caffeine boost during intense physical activity.

Take a maximum of one Cola-Orange + Caffeine gel per day.

Use caffeine-free products for other carbohydrate intake.

Plan water or sports drink separately.

Test the setup during training before competition.

Powerbar's current recommendation is one caffeinated sachet per day.

Example of energy layout

60 g carbohydrates with 100 mg caffeine

1 Fuel Gel 30 Cola-Orange + Caffeine: 30 g carbohydrates

1 caffeine-free Fuel Gel 30: 30 g carbohydrates

Total: 60 g carbohydrates and 100 mg caffeine

90 g carbohydrates with 100 mg caffeine

1 Fuel Gel 30 Cola-Orange + Caffeine: 30 g

1 caffeine-free Fuel Gel 30: 30 g

1 Fuel Drink 30 or equivalent caffeine-free product: 30 g

Total: 90 g carbohydrates and 100 mg caffeine

These are examples of how the products can be added together, not an individual recommendation. An intake of 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour needs to be trained and adjusted according to the length of the activity and individual tolerance.

How long does the box last?

Since Powerbar states a maximum of one caffeine gel per day, the box is enough for:

12 separate training or competition days

12 planned caffeine servings

A longer training and competition period

Multiple races where only one caffeine gel is used per race

The carton should not be used as twelve gels during one long race.

Does the gel need to be taken with water?

Powerbar describes Fuel Gel 30 as easy to consume during physical activity. However, the gel does not replace the body's fluid needs.

Plan water or sports drink based on:

Temperature

Humidity

Activity duration

Intensity

Individual sweat loss

Access to hydration stations

Water together with the gel can also reduce the perceived sweetness and make it easier to consume at high intensity.

Suitable for

Half marathon and marathon

Trail running and ultra running

Road cycling

Gravel and mountain biking

Triathlon

Cross-country skiing

Roller skiing

Vasaloppet and other long-distance races

Intensive workouts

Competition setup with a planned caffeine portion

Cola-Orange with or without caffeine?

Powerbar has two separate variants with Cola-Orange flavor.

Cola-Orange + Caffeine

30 g carbohydrates

100 mg caffeine

Twelve planned caffeine servings

Practical for the training and competition season

Same flavor throughout the carton

Total 360 g carbohydrates

Taste and texture

Cola-Orange combines:

Classic cola flavor

Fruity notes of orange

Acid from citric acid

A slight bitter note from the caffeine

The gel's consistency may become firmer in cold weather and thinner in warm weather. Please test it in a similar temperature and intensity to what you expect on race day.
