What happened

GU Energy Gels in Gingerade flavor are being recalled because they may contain cyclamates, an artificial sweetener that was not listed on the label. The contamination came from a supplier ingredient and was confirmed through product testing.

Who is at risk

This recall is most important for people who avoid cyclamates due to personal preference, dietary restrictions, or health conditions, as well as anyone who may have an undisclosed sensitivity to this sweetener.

What to do

Check if you have the recalled Gingerade flavor GU Energy Gels (look for item #124297 or #124296 on packaging). If you do, stop using them and contact the manufacturer for a refund or replacement. This is a low-risk Class III recall, so serious illness is unlikely, but affected consumers should dispose of the product.
