It's unique formula is made to provide almost instant energy. We even designed the stick to tear into a funnel so you can easily pour into a water bottle.

From the Manufacturer Moving Sport Fuel Forward GLUKOS is made with glucose—the form of energy used by all life on earth, and the only energy your body can really use. The more strenuous the activity, the more glucose your body requires.

Liz Lyles - 2X Ironman Champion "I have never loved a training and racing product more. I might never consume another Gu for as long as I live. I definitely noticed I did not get sick to my stomach ever; even my husband commented when I got back how fresh I looked. I found my energy levels stayed very consistent and I had my best average watts on a long training ride ever" Antonio Brown - All Pro Wide Receiver "Glukos is a product I firmly believe in and one that has changed the way I fuel my body in all facets of training and game preparation." Jared Ward - US Men's Team Olympic Marathoner “I fueled with GLUKOS before, during and after the 2016 Marathon Olympic Trials when I secured a spot on Team USA for the 2016 Olympic Games. I attribute a large portion of my success during that event to the use of GLUKOS as my fuel. I have tried many different gels and drinks throughout my time as a collegiate and professional runner. GLUKOS is the only sports nutrition product that sits well in my stomach, allowing me to properly fuel for the entire 26.2 miles and keeps me from bonking.” Only What Your Body Needs Vegan, No Artificial Colors, No High-fructose Corn Syrup, No Artificial Sweeteners, No Caffeine,No Stimulants, Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free, & Soy-Free About the Startup Describe your product in 3 words. Fast, Natural, Energy How did you come up with the idea for this product? Glukos founder Mark Jensen is a former Nike guy and collegiate runner who challenged, "There must be a better energy solution than the high-fructose, red dye 40 and chemical-ridden options of Powerade and Gatorate." He worked on his MBA thesis with the Nike Innovation Lab, and world-class coaches and runners, to identify the world's best performing, all-natural energy solution. The athletes told him, "Give me an oral IV". What is an IV? Water, electrolytes and GLUCOSE. What makes your product special? Glucose is the only fuel that drives our bodies. It needs no digestion, so it's available as fuel to your body 2X faster than fructose or sucrose. It lasts two times as long, giving your body more sustained energy. What has been the best part of your startup experience? Solving a problem that athletes face every day, and sometimes the best solution to a problem is the easiest. Athletes of all ages deserve a product that provides the fuel they need to perform at the highest level, without all the hard to pronounce ingredients currently found in the marketplace. Glukos is the solution to this problem, and it is made with only the ingredients athletes need, and nothing else.

Very tasty, but not too sweet
Some hydration mixes are too sweet, or just don't have much of a flavor. The Glukos are just right, and have a great flavor. I like the powder sticks too, because it is the perfect amount for my water bottle.

Great product. The taste does not stain your mouth like many sports drinks. I am an endurance bicycler and can feel the difference.

The drink mix is really, really sweet. I wasn't expecting that and it got to be too sweet in hot weather. When I halved the amount of suggested powder, it worked great.

Perfect for pre and post run fuel!
These come in easy to open packages, perfect to pour into a water bottle on the go. 1 packet mixed in about 16 oz water. I can actually drink this immediately before heading out for a run with no digestive trouble at all! It gives me the energy I need to get through my run without caffeine or sugar additives. I would recommend Glukos for any workout....before, during or after!

This works great!
Not overpowering, mixes easy in cold water and does not leave a funky after taste in your mouth. Works great! Extra credit points for not gooking up my camelbak too.
