Used by ultra distance athletes

All our products are developed hand in hand with elite athletes through the Näak Lab. Our mission is to build the most efficient and sustainable fuel for ultra distance sports. Today, thousands of professional and amateur athletes around the world depend on Näak to explore new playgrounds and redefine what is physically possible.

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

Why is the Näak Ultra Energy™ Puree sustainable ?

Näak Purees are organic certified and contains upcycled ingredients. All the ingredients are fully traceable and locally-sourced.

How often should I use the purees?

We recommend to eat 1 Puree every 45-60min of exercise. If you are racing an ultra, we recommend an energy intake of 300 to 350 Kcal per hour. You can reach those numbers by using one Puree in addition to other Näak Ultra Energy™ products.

What are BCAAs used for?

The branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine. They are known to reduce muscle fatigue and optimize energy stores.

How well is the protein digested during exercise?

The proteins used in Näak Ultra Energy™ Purees are highly digestible and absorbed efficiently during exercise. We advice to train your guts at least 4 weeks before the race.

Why are electrolytes important?

Electrolytes are crucial to maintain fluid balance, muscle contraction and neural activity. When athletes sweat, they are losing electrolytes and it is important to replace them. Näak Ultra Energy™ Purees contain the four main electrolytes needed to perform at your best.

What type of sugars are used in the Purees?

We use a blend of "simple sugars" such as maple syrup and "complex sugars" such as hydrolyzed oat flour. A perfect mix of natural carbohydrates to avoid sugar crashes and spikes, and ensure long lasting energy.

Super boost pour les longues distances

Goûteux, mais donne le boost d’énergie nécessaire pour ceux qui préfèrent s’alimenter de produits semi-liquides pour les ultras.

I am satisfied with this product.

I didn't think it was very delicious to my taste.
However, I am satisfied with this product.
The reason is that I had a good digestion and didn't cause problems in my stomach.
I think I'll continue to like this.
Also, I'm glad that this caped packaging makes it easy to carry around.
I look forward to seeing more variety of nutrition in Naak.

The perfect product

This is it for me. I’ve been sick of ultra-artificial gels for a while and looked into making my own purees but realistically i knew i wouldn’t have the time to commit to that. These Purees are sweet and a little savory, ultra-smooth, and, most importantly, actually taste like the ingredients on the packaging! After race-testing these on my long run yesterday, the high-calorie and nutrient-dense nature of these purees makes them a surefire staple in my pack.
