Quick facts (per 60g gel)
Ingredients
Canadian Grade A maple syrup, Himalayan sea salt. No thickeners, preservatives, colours, artificial sweeteners or added water.
Why we made SAP40
Everything SAP25 is, with 40g of carbs instead of 25. Same two ingredients, same feel, more fuel per gel. Fewer to carry and fewer to open.
Why a 40g gel?
For marathons, long rides, triathlons and racing, many athletes aim for 60 to 90g of carbs an hour. SAP40 gets you there with just two gels an hour.
Why maple syrup?
Maple’s sucrose splits into glucose and fructose 1:1, using both carb absorption routes in your gut. It performs as well as the glucose and fructose blends in most high carb gels, from one natural ingredient with zero fibre.
How to use SAP40
Take one gel every 25 to 30 minutes with water for about 80g of carbs an hour. Build up to higher carb intakes gradually in training.

The best gel is the one you can actually take (enjoy) every time. every session.
SAP is fuel your body actually recognizes. 2 ingredients vs. the 6-15+ in gels. No maltodextrin, fructose powder, or gelling agents. SAP is real food with a natural sugar profile your gut knows how to handle, even when everything else is working hard.
SAP is naturally a near 1:1 glucose to fructose ratio. This matters because your body has two separate carb absorption pathways, one for each. A 1:1 ratio means both pathways run at capacity, you're not overloading the fructose side, and you avoid the GI distress that comes with too much free fructose.
SAP is real food. No additives, preservatives, thickeners, artificial sweeteners or colours that can individually irritate the gut or leave you feeling gross.
SAP has a glycemic index of ~54. That's well below gels (90-100) and lower than honey (around 61). A lower GI means a more controlled glucose release, less of a blood sugar spike, and less crash. It also means SAP empties from the stomach efficiently without the GI distress that comes with high-sugar, high-GI fuel.
Natural sodium from Himalayan salt. Sodium is essential for fluid retention, maintaining electrolyte balance, and supporting performance across long efforts. It keeps your cells hydrated and helps you hold onto the water you're drinking.
You might not have guessed it, but SAP naturally contains magnesium, potassium, calcium, and dozens of other minerals and antioxidants. In fact, SAP offers more minerals than some branded 'electrolyte' gels. One SAP25 alone provides 40% of your daily manganese, a mineral your body needs to convert carbohydrates into usable energy at the cellular level.

Most energy gels rely on processed ingredients, gelling agents, preservatives. They're hard to digest and cause spikes and crashes. We stripped it back to what works: Organic Maple Syrup and Himalayan salt. That's it.
