Energy gels and GI?

[Zrob]

What's the current thought on energy gels?. Are they low or high on the glycemic index? Are they of any practical use? I've tried them and notice maybe a slight increase in energy or stamina through a workout if I take them about 30" before. Any opinions? Thanks.

I've used Gu and Karb Boom. Come on guys.....no opinions out there on this stuff? Thanks.

Sorry, but I've never used them. I eat bars though!
