GlucoTabs and GlucoJuice

I got sent some GlucoTabs and GlucoJuice to try out. According to the blurb, they “deliver a pure fast acting carb boost in the form of glucose just when you need it most whether warming up, training, competing or warming down”.I haven’t done much in the way of training recently. Exercise, yes. Training, no. Still, before departing on a recent run, I decided to see if the GlucoJuice would give me a boost, as the blurb says the 60ml compact shot will deliver 15g of fast acting carbohydrate in the form of glucose. I was a bit hesitant in trying it, as “15g of glucose” sounds gloopy, sticky and sweet. But it wasn’t. It was fresh and light, kind of like that expensive water you can buy in bottles with a hint of fruit taste and wasn’t sickly at all.Nice.Couldn’t tell you whether it gave me a boost or not and I haven’t tried the GlucoTabs yet, but I’m giving a pack of them to Helsbels to give a go with her marathon training and I’m sure she’ll let you know what they’re like.And for those of you who, like me, don’t like to drink anything calorific that doesn’t contain alcohol, they only contain 16 calories.
