Used by Ultra Distance Athletes
All our products are developed in collaboration with elite athletes through the Näak Lab. Our mission is to create the most efficient and sustainable fuel for ultra-distance sports. Today, thousands of professional and amateur athletes around the world rely on Näak to take on new challenges and redefine what is physically possible.
Scientifically Substantiated
The science behind Näak Ultra Energy™ was developed to meet the specific needs of ultra-distance athletes. The idea is simple: the intake of a few macronutrients such as carbohydrates and electrolytes is not enough to fuel ultra-long distances. After a few hours of effort you need a complete Nutritionapproach to continue.
How to Use Näak Ultra Energy™ Drink Mix?
It is recommended to consume one serving (72g) of Näak Ultra Energy™ Drink Mix in 500-750 ml of water per hour, depending on the intensity of the exercise and the weather conditions (heat and humidity).
What are BCAAs?
Proteins and especially BCAAs increase the body's ability to use fat as an energy source. Consuming BCAAs allows you to use them directly as fuel, rather than drawing energy from your muscle mass, limiting muscle breakdown, cramps or injuries.
How Well Is Protein Digested During Exercise?
Protein, when supplied in controlled amounts and in an optimized form, does not cause digestive problems during exercise. At Näak we use vegetable protein isolates that are concentrated to facilitate their absorption.
Why Are Electrolytes Important?
Electrolytes are essential for your body to function optimally during exercise. They regulate fluid balance, muscle contractions and blood pressure. Näak products are rich in potassium, sodium, magnesium and calcium, which are electrolytes lost during sweating.
Which Types of Sugars Are Used in Näak Drink Mix?
A mix of dextrose, a simple sugar that is quickly absorbed and converted into energy, and maltodextrin, which allows slightly slower diffusion over time. The Palatinose™ (isomaltulose) provides a more complex sugar that is digested more slowly and allows a long-term energy supply.
Can You Only Use Naked Drink Mix as Fuel?
Näak Ultra Energy™ Drink Mix is designed to provide you with all the Nutritionsubstances you need during an ultra, especially when solid products are no longer available. You can take it alone or combine it with other Näak products.
