Each PowerGel Original Lemon/Lime provides 26 grams of carbohydrates .
This makes it easy to calculate the intake:
1 gel provides 26 g of carbohydrates
2 gels provide 52 g of carbohydrates
3 gels provide 78 g of carbohydrates
4 gels provide 104 g of carbohydrates
Add up carbohydrates from gels, sports drinks, bars, chews and other energy. Adjust the amount according to the length of the activity, intensity and the energy intake that has worked during training.
The gel contains maltodextrin and fructose in a 2:1 ratio between the glucose and fructose sources.
The combination makes PowerGel Original suitable for planned carbohydrate intake during long-term endurance activity. A high carbohydrate intake should be introduced gradually to allow the stomach to get used to it.
Therefore, test both the amount, timing and fluid intake during training sessions before competition.
Each gel contains approximately 207 mg of sodium , equivalent to 0.52 grams of salt.
The sodium content can be an advantage during long, sweaty activities, but needs to be considered in conjunction with other products. This is especially true if you are also using:
Sports drink
Electrolyte tablets
Salt tablets
Sodium-rich gels
Food or snacks with salt
The need varies depending on the amount of sweat, temperature, length of activity and individual salt concentration in the sweat.
The Lemon/Lime variant contains no added caffeine, making it suitable for when you:
Want to use multiple gels during the same activity
Working out late in the day
Are sensitive to caffeine
Want to control caffeine intake separately
Already using coffee or other caffeine products
Looking for a simple gel with carbohydrates and sodium
Powerbars caffeinated flavors are clearly labeled with + Caffeine .
PowerGel Original is a concentrated energy gel and should be taken with water.
The water helps to dilute the gel and makes it easier to swallow and handle during activity. Do not take the gel with a strong sports drink without first testing the combination during exercise, as the total concentration of carbohydrates may be high.
A practical approach is to take the gel just before a hydration station or when you have access to a bottle of water.
Powerbar's recommendation is one gel every 20 minutes along with water during intense and prolonged physical activity of at least 60 minutes.
This is equivalent to three gels and 78 grams of carbohydrates per hour. Such an intake should be tested during training and needs to be adjusted according to:
Body weight
Activity duration
Intensity
Other carbohydrate intake
Fluid intake
Individual stomach tolerance
Start consuming energy early during longer sessions instead of waiting until your energy has already run out.
1 PowerGel Original
Taken with water
2 PowerGel Original
Spread over one hour
Liquid is planned separately
3 PowerGel Original
One gel approximately every 20 minutes
Requires a well-tested setup
The gel can also be combined with sports drinks, bars or chews. In this case, reduce the number of gels so that the total carbohydrate intake matches your plan.
The packaging has the Powerbars Trash Chain , which means that the tear-off tab remains attached to the packaging when the gel is opened.
This makes the pack easy to handle while running and cycling and reduces the risk of the small tab being lost in nature. Always put the entire empty pack in a pocket until you reach a waste station.

The Lemon/Lime flavor combines lemon and lime in a fresh citrus profile. The tart character provides variation from sweet fruit, vanilla and cola flavors.
Switching between different flavors during longer activities can make it easier to continue following the energy plan when the race has been going on for several hours.
