Description

A gel that fills you up. Made with maple syrup, sunflower seeds and pea protein, this gel gives you 200 kcal: 27 grams of carbs, 2 grams of protein and 9 grams of fat. It feels less like pure sugar than a regular gel.

Made for the long hours. In the second half of an ultra or after a long night you notice sweet gels starting to put you off. This gel is salty-sweet, so it stays tasty for longer.

Two flavours. Salted Maple is sweet with a salty touch. Chocolate contains 35 mg caffeine for a small pick-me-up.

Not sure? Pick this gel for an easy pace and long distances. For speed the Boost Energy Gel is the better choice.

Why Näak?

After a few hours on the trails, you sometimes just can't face another sweet gel. Your body wants something closer to real food, or something salty. That's exactly why we carry Näak at Trail.NL.

The Canadian brand makes plant-based sports nutrition for long efforts: bars, waffles, purees, gels and drink mixes with protein and salt as well as carbs. The Boost line adds high-carb gels and drinks for when the pace goes up. Handy for mixing things up during ultras and long trail runs.

For us, Näak is above all a smart addition: real flavours, savoury ones too, and nutrition built for the long hours. It's no coincidence the brand is a nutrition partner of UTMB.

vooral de maple is super lekker

vooral de maple is super lekker, geen energie spike maar 'langzame' energie voor een uur of twee

Te zoet en te vloeibaar

Ik vindt de smaak en consistentie van het product niet prettig tijdens het sporten. Product is iets te dun en veel te zoet, waardoor het niet prettig wordt verwerkt in mijn maag.

Echt niet

Echt niet lekker

Hi Charlotte, ben toch even benieuwd wat je ervaren hebt. Vond je de gel te zout, te liquide of was het gewoon niet jouw smaak? Heb je toevallig de Boost Energy Gels van Naak al geprobeerd? Die zijn heel anders, wellicht zou je die een kans kunnen geven.

eindelijk een gel die werkt

NAAK begrijpt het! Een gel die niet alleen koolhydraten geeft maar ook voorziet in eloktrolyten en de nodige BCAA's. De gel is makkelijk in te nemen zonder water en heeft een goede zoete smaak, met een klein zoutje erin.
