As of 2025, current research suggests the 1:0.8 ratio to be the most optimal, however, proper fueling is not black and white. There are numerous other factors to consider which may affect the athlete. Some example factors could be the product's palatability, or the athlete's sensitivities to ingredients like preservatives, and gelling agents. Carbs Fuel thoughtfully selected a 2:1 ratio, instead of a 1:0.8 ratio, for a couple reasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome athletes have a greater sensitivity to fructose, when compared to glucose; we believe the 2:1 ratio will allow a wider breadth of athletes to fuel their sport.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA key aspect to helping more athletes fuel effectively is ensuring it is a product that is palatable and easy to consume. We found the higher fructose concentration in the 1:0.8 ratio created a sweetness profile that was less palatable during our product development. A proper fueling strategy only works if the athlete is excited and able to continue consuming their energy gels late into their activity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sea2Sky Sports Nutrition","offers":[{"title":"12 Pack","offer_id":44657550164144,"sku":"CF-25-G","price":24.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 Pack","offer_id":44657550196912,"sku":"CF-25-G-24","price":48.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0011\/6490\/2465\/files\/CarbsFuel-250501-0308.webp?v=1753829203","url":"https:\/\/sea2skynutrition.ca\/products\/carbs-fuel-original-25g-energy-gels","provider":"Sea2Sky Sports Nutrition","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
