from 18 reviewsI absolutely love these gels. I am a distance runner and using these fuels has changed my long runs and races. They are not as thick as the traditional running gels and are much easier on the stomach. I like the functionality of a gel and this finally lets me get real food in my body with them.
I love the levelle packs! I take them on any run longer than 6 miles. They are amazing! The never bother my stomach, a problem I've had with other running nutrition. Also a great company! I recommend them to everyone I know who runs.
AMAZING!! My new and favorite go to energy, helps me so much with with not just my workouts but also great for school and work! If you’re thinking about it, trust me and buy it, you won’t regret it!
The flavors are wonderful and not fake. I took these with me on two different hikes (6 mile; 11 mile) and the packets didn't take up too much room nor left a mess. Highly recommend
Love the tart flavor - what a great pick-me-up for afternoon exercise! Didn't feel too full but didn't leave me hungry either - a wonderful balance.
Hands down the best fuel for a long run, hike, or bike ride. I have always had a difficult time finding options for longer training runs that don't upset my stomach and Levelle has been a perfect option! The flavor is amazing and it leaves you feeling energized and is perfect for sensitive stomaches! Could not recommend this product enough.
Levelle products are perfect for an on-the-go snack, or as a running pick me up. Packed with fruits and ingredients you can feel good about what you are putting in your body. The strawberry jam is my favorite, but the yes we cran was also delicious with a nice flavor balance.
I'm not sure I believe in products like this - I mean I believe in them, but I never really thought they were for me. I'm not an extreme athlete or anything, and usually I just go without and quit when I hit the wall. But my daughter insisted I try it. I was playing pickleball on a hot day recently and at the break before my last match, I tried some of the Strawberry Jams. I figured I'd see if it worked or if I'd notice a difference. Then I immediately forgot about it (I'm 72, so...). But about midway through the game, I suddenly realized, hey, I have the energy to finish this and I'm not feeling exhausted! So now I guess I have to actually believe in this stuff. I will keep a packet in my pickleball bag at all times.
I'm not a runner, but I went to the website of Levelle to buy their product for a female friend who is a runner and ended up with a discovery: Levelle's products aren't limited to the use of female runners, but can be used by anybody in the medical and mental health professions, who works back to back and doesn't have time to consume the nutrients they need. Very often in the course of my work as a psychotherapist, I need to attend to a crisis with a patient, while feeling dizzy and fatigued, only to become cognizant that I actually neglected to take a break and eat . Levelle's products provide me with an unexpected solution tailored to such moments. Their products are vegan, consist of real food, have no added sugar, supply between 80-90 calories and have all the good vitamins I need. Right now, I keep a big supply of their energy puree products, 'Yes We Cran, and 'Strawberry Jams' in my desk drawer. Consuming them doesn't take time away from the flow of the day and they never fail to bring back a smile to my face as my mind clears up and I'm back to full cognitive functioning in the middle of a busy and challenging day. Needless to say, I'm spreading the news about Levelle's products among my colleagues in the helping professions and maybe they will end up becoming runners as well.
With an IVF pregnancy I had to go in for non-stress tests (NST) twice a week starting at 32 weeks. At my first test, I was asked whether I had had breakfast because that usually gets the baby active which is what they want to see. I didn't know and therefore had not. BUT I did have some Levelle 'Yes We Cran' packets handy in my purse. So sure enough, baby was napping during the test and my doc said go ahead and have the snack I had on hand. I ate 2 packets for good measure. Baby must've loved the natural sugars because she started moving and kicking away. Baby and I passed the NST. I keep Levelle packets in my purse for whenever I need a little energy boost and I'm so glad I do as it came in handy big time for this prenatal visit.
The gel-free energy gel
OK, we know we're taking a risk here. Endurance athletes are more familiar with the term 'energy gel.' But, we don't want to call our product a gel, because:
- Our texture is different.
- Our ingredients are different.
- Our nutrients are different.
- Our absorption is different.
In other words, you get delicious, natural, nutrient-dense, steady energy. We think 'PURÉe' is more appropriate.
-
Real Food
All the things you want from your food, and none of the stuff you don't. Our purées are made with organic, gluten-free and vegan ingredients. Because Mother Earth already did the hard work for us.
-
Female-Focused
A Sex-Specific ApproachOnly 2.5% of sports nutrition is made targeted for women, despite physiological differences. So we're focused on what works for women. (But fellas, you can enjoy too!) Because it's about time.
-
GI Friendly
High glycemic sugars can cause blood sugar spikes and crashes, and slow digestion. So we only use low- and mid-glycemic index ingredients, for a steady state of energy. Because endurance sports are hard enough.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What's in this that makes it 'For women'?
It's less about what's in it, and more about what's not. We took out the high-glycemic sugars; the artificial ingredients, colors and flavors; and the preservatives. Our ingredients are all organic and vegan. We want women to feel safe consuming our products at any age or stage, including while pregnant, breastfeeding or going through menopause.
-
Why do men and women need different fuel?
Women and men utilize carbs, fats and proteins differently. Women oxidize proportionally less carbohydrates, more fats and less leucine (an amino acid) than men. Additionally, women can be more sensitive to glucose and have slower gastric emptying (the time it takes for food to move from the stomach to the small intestine). We think fuel should accommodate these differences.
-
Can men use Levelle products?
Yes! Our products are safe for everyone. We specify that our products are made for women, not because they aren't made for men, but because most products don't prioritize women (only 2.5% of sports nutrition targets women). Women's physiology and consumer needs are our main focus, but we think our purées offer a delicious and nutritious energy boost for everyone.
