Commonly Asked Questions

What is Boost™ Gel?

.BOOST™ Gel is our most versatile fuel, engineered to support sustained energy levels while prioritizing digestive comfort. By using a precise blend of complex carbohydrates, we’ve created a gel that is gentle on the stomach, even during high-intensity efforts where traditional high-sugar gels can feel heavy. Designed for intense efforts, each gel delivers 25 or 30g of carbohydrates to help you push your limits. Its jelly texture is easy to swallow during high-intensity efforts, and its slightly sweet taste helps prevent flavor fatigue.

When to consume Boost™ Gel?

Boost™ Gel is our most versatile fuel, engineered to support sustained energy levels while prioritizing digestive comfort in all kinfs of situations:

Usage Guidelines:
— Effort Intensity: Moderate to High. From holding a steady aerobic zone to pushing through a vertical climb.

— Duration: All durations. Ideal as a standalone for a fast 90-minute road session or as a foundational fueling block for a 100-mile ultra.

Best For:
— Trail Running: Steady glycogen support for technical ascents and long mountain days.

— Road Running: Quick-access, low-viscosity fuel for marathons and tempo efforts.

— Cycling & Gravel: Easy-to-digest carbohydrates designed for high-cadence breathing and gut comfort in the saddle.

How does the Boost™ Gel tastes?

Boost™ Gels taste were developed to answer the needs of the most demanding athletes any any conditions: from the fast pace of a marathon to the moderate pace of an ultra, from the cold races above the arctic circle to hotest desert races.

The light sweetness is obtained by the use of sugars with a low sweetening power and through an engineered textured gel that encapsulates the sugar to prevent sugar fatigue.

Most gels are syrupy and cloying. We’ve designed Boost™ to be different: a clean, light sweetness with a smooth, fluid texture that goes down easily—even when your heart rate is redlining.

— Anti-Sugar Fatigue: We use sugars with low sweetening power and an encapsulated texture, preventing that "sticky-sweet" throat burn common in traditional gels.

— All-Climate Consistency: Tested from Arctic freezes to Sahara heat. The texture remains stable and easy to consume, no matter the temperature.

— The Finish: Refreshing and functional, so you can fuel every hour without flavor burnout.

Is Boost™ Gel Informed Sport certified?

Boost™ Gel is Informed Sport certified, meaning every single production run is screened for over 250 substances banned by WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency).

Elite Standard — Trusted by professional ultra-runners and Olympians.

Which Boost™ Gel flavour is right for me?

While every Boost™ Gel delivers a core 25g or 30g of Carbohydrates via our Ultra Energy™ blend, each flavour is precision-engineered for a specific physiological need:

Neutral 25 — Designed with an unflavoured, "zero-fatigue" profile. Ideal for the later stages of an Ultra when your palate rejects sweetness.

Salted Lemon 30 — Packed with 250mg of Sodium. Choose this for high-sweat sessions or hot climates to help maintain minerals losses balance.

Peach Tea 30 — Infused with 100mg of Caffeine from yerba mate and guarana. Perfect for night-running, technical climbs, or that final 10km push when you need a mental and physical spark.

Ice Mint 30 — The Internal Coolant: Features 0.05% Menthol. This creates a physiological cooling sensation, essential for racing in extreme heat or humidity.
