SiS GO Isotonic Energy Gel Lemon & Lime is designed to provide carbohydrates during training and competition in a format that is easy to carry and easy to consume.
Each gel provides 22 grams of carbohydrates from maltodextrin . Unlike more concentrated gels, GO Isotonic has a thinner, isotonic consistency that does not need to be diluted with extra water in the stomach. SiS describes it as the world's first isotonic energy gel and as a quick and easy-to-consume carbohydrate source during activity.
The Lemon & Lime flavor combines the tartness of lemon with a fresh note of lime. It's especially great when you want a refreshing alternative to sweeter berry, cola, or tropical flavors.
The gel does not contain any added caffeine according to the current ingredient list. It can therefore be used as a caffeine-free base gel or combined with a separate caffeine product when caffeine is included in the energy plan.

Each SiS GO Isotonic Energy Gel provides 22g of carbohydrates , making it easy to use for smaller, more frequent energy intakes:
1 gel provides 22 g of carbohydrates
2 gels provide 44 g of carbohydrates
3 gels provide 66 g of carbohydrates
4 gels provide 88 g of carbohydrates
The gel can be used as part of a regimen where the goal is approximately 60–90 g of carbohydrates per hour , depending on the sport, activity and individual tolerance. The manufacturer describes the use as approximately 1–3 or more gels per hour depending on the total carbohydrate goal.
A high carbohydrate intake needs to be trained in gradually. Therefore, test the amount, timing and product combinations during regular training sessions before using the same setup in competition.
An isotonic product has a concentration that allows it to pass through the stomach without the need for extra fluid to first be drawn in to dilute the contents.
SiS describes GO Isotonic as a gel that can be consumed without water and is designed for faster transit through the stomach. This is especially handy when you're running between hydration stations or don't want to rely on a bottle for every gel intake.
However, this does not mean that the gel replaces the body's fluid needs. During longer activities, water or sports drink still needs to be planned according to temperature, intensity and individual sweat loss.
GO Isotonic Energy Gel is a so-called single-source gel , where the carbohydrates mainly come from maltodextrin.
SiS positions GO Isotonic as an option when you want easily accessible carbohydrates in a smaller portion size. The company's educational materials recommend maltodextrin-based GO Isotonic products primarily for activities up to about two hours, while the BETA Fuel series combines maltodextrin and fructose for higher carbohydrate intake during longer activities.
GO Isotonic can also be used during longer runs, but for high carbohydrate goals it may be practical to combine it with sports drinks, chews, bars or products with multiple carbohydrate sources.
Lemon & Lime is a standard variant with no added caffeine. The current ingredient list does not contain any caffeine.
This makes the gel suitable 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 separately
Already using coffee or another caffeine product
Looking for a simple carbohydrate gel without additional active ingredients
SiS has a separate product line called GO Isotonic Energy + Caffeine , which should not be confused with this caffeine-free gel.
Tear off the top and squeeze the contents directly into your mouth as needed. Depending on activity and total carbohydrate goal, the company suggests approximately 1–3 or more gels per hour to reach approximately 60–90 grams of carbohydrates.
A practical approach could be:
1 gel per hour
22 g carbohydrates
Supplement with regular food or sports drink if necessary
2 gels per hour
44 g carbohydrates
Supplement with, for example, 15–30 g of carbohydrates from a sports drink
3 gels per hour
66 g carbohydrates
Combine with sports drink if necessary for a higher total intake
4 gels provide 88 g of carbohydrates
Alternatively, combine fewer gels with a sports drink or another energy product
The examples are not individual recommendations. Adjust intake according to the length of activity, intensity, previous experience and stomach tolerance.
Tear off the top of the portion packaging.
Squeeze the gel directly into your mouth.
Swallow the entire portion or spread it over a few minutes.
Take your next energy intake according to your tested plan.
Plan liquid separately according to the conditions.
Put the empty envelope in your pocket until it can be thrown away.
The isotonic consistency means that water does not need to be drunk directly with the gel.
