Glukos EnergyLiquid Gel 2oz Packets, 12 count Tray, Lemon Lime Flavor

Got these for my kid for emergency use as he’s a diabetic. He enjoys the flavor of these much more than other quick glucose pouches we have tried. Easy to carry around and convenient.

I wanted tubes of gel I could squeeze under my husband's tongue if his blood sugar got so low he could not handle it himself. (I had purchased those tubes from the drugstore before and the one time I had to use one they worked fine and were easy to use.) These are large plastic pouches of liquid that spill if not very carefully handled. They are effective in bringing the sugar level back up; just not what I want or need.

When training for my half marathon, it would be hard for me to down gels, eat gummies, or hold anything solid down while running. This liquid is light and gives the energy needed to run. Easy on the stomach as well.

That’s what these taste like, just liquid form. Delightful.

I have tried many products over the years to raise my blood sugar quickly when I have urgent lows. This works quickly and effectively. Within 5 minutes my glucose level rose by 12. At 10 minutes, by 20. At 15 minutes, by 30. The product description says, "liquid gel" which in my opinion is an oxymoron. It is not a gel. It is definitely a liquid. That is not necessarily a bad thing. I find some gels to be too thick. I bought the lemon-lime flavor. I sometimes wonder who these manufacturers employ as taste testers as this does not taste good at all. I did not find this product to support the "energy" claim.
