Great but

I really like the taste of the Lime drink mix. And it is great regarding hydration and fuelling. The only issue I have, is that the powder does not mix well. One has to shake the bottles before every drink and even then there is residue.

Light Flavor, Great Taste

I tried Naak Ultra Energy drink for the first time at Speedgoat 28k. I enjoyed it so much that I used it almost exclusively the next day on the 50k. The flavor is so subtle that I ended up consuming more calories than usual (close to 500cal per hour) with no stomach issues. The calories, along with the electrolytes, helped me get through the 50k in a great time. This is now my go-to drink for all my long runs and races!

Backed by Science

Näak Ultra Energy™ science was developed to meet the specific needs of ultra distance athletes. The idea is simple: the ingestion of a few macronutrients such as carbohydrates and electrolytes is not enough to fuel ultra distances. After a few hours of effort, you need a complete nutrition approach to go farther.

Commonly Asked Questions

How should you use Näak Ultra Energy™ Drink Mix?

.It is recommended to consume one serving (72g) of Näak Ultra Energy™ Drink Mix in 500-750ml of water per hour depending on the intensity of the exercise and the weather conditions (heat and humidity).

What are BCAAs used for?

Proteins and especially BCAAs increase the body's ability to use fat as an energy source. Consuming BCAAs will allow you to use them directly as fuel, instead of drawing energy from your muscle mass, thus limiting muscle breakdown, cramps or injuries.

How well is the protein digested during exercise?

Protein, if provided in controlled quantities and in an optimized form, does not pose any digestion problems during exercise. At Näak, we use plant-based protein isolates that have been concentrated to facilitate their absorption.

Why are electrolytes important?

Electrolytes are essential to help your body function optimally when you exercise. They control fluid balance, muscle contractions and regulate blood pressure. Näak products are rich in potassium, sodium, magnesium and calcium, which are electrolytes lost in sweat.

What type of sugars are used in Näak Drink Mix?

A mix of dextrose, which is a simple sugar very quickly absorbed and converted into energy, and maltodextrin, which allows a slightly slower diffusion over time. The oats bring a more complex sugar which will be digested more slowly and will allow a very long duration energy.

What type of sugars are used in Näak Drink Mix?

Näak Ultra Energy™ Drink Mix was developed to provide you with all the nutrients you need during an ultra, especially when solid products are no longer available. You can take it alone or with other Näak products.
