THE BENEFITS OF NÄAK ULTRA ENERGY™ BARS IN ENDURANCE SPORTS

With the launch of the Näak ULTRA ENERGY™ bars, NÄAK wanted to highlight their benefits for endurance sports. The Näak ULTRA ENERGY™ bars are designed to meet ALL the energy needs of ultra-endurance athletes and high-intensity training, with more electrolytes for hydration and complete proteins for your muscles. Read on to discover why so many athletes are adopting Näak ULTRA ENERGY™ bars.

1.4:1 carbohydrate-to-protein ratio

How are Näak ULTRA ENERGY™ bars designed for ultra-distance athletes? They contain the magic 4:1 ratio of carbohydrates to protein, providing you with sustained energy over a long period. When you exercise, your glycogen stores are depleted, which is why it is essential to consume glucose during extended training sessions. Fortunately, Näak ULTRA ENERGY™ bars contain 28 grams of carbohydrates to help replenish your glycogen stores, allowing you to make it to the end of your training sessions!

In addition, Näak ULTRA ENERGY™ bars contain 28 grams of carbohydrates, research has shown that consuming a 4:1 carbohydrate-to-protein ratio after exercise leads to increased glycogen stores compared with consuming carbohydrates alone. On the other hand, consuming large amounts of protein slows rehydration and glycogen replenishment, which is why the 4:1 ratio is ideal for endurance athletes who train regularly!

2.Vegan and cricket proteins

At Näak, they are committed to using only eco-friendly ingredients to minimize their environmental footprint without compromising your performance. That is why the energy bars contain both cricket protein and plant-based protein from crickets and plants. Both are sustainable and provide complete sources of protein, optimizing muscle repair and reducing soreness.

3.All-natural ingredients

At Näak, they use only clean, natural ingredients such as dates, cricket and vegan proteins, and sunflower seed butter for natural sweetness and protein without compromising on taste. They do not use food coloring, preservatives, or GMO ingredients. Want to know what goes into the bars?

4.Helps replenish your electrolytes

When you exercise, certain electrolytes such as sodium and potassium are lost through sweat and must therefore be replaced to maintain proper fluid balance in the body. That is why, for ultra-endurance athletes, replenishing sodium and potassium levels is important to help balance electrolyte levels lost through sweat and prevent muscle cramps during intense physical activity. This is where Näak ULTRA ENERGY™ bars come in handy: with 180 mg of sodium and 225 mg of potassium in each energy bar, they help rebalance electrolyte levels lost through sweat, facilitating rehydration and preventing muscle cramps during intense physical challenges.

5.Easy to chew and swallow

Many energy bars have a dry, grainy texture that makes them almost tasteless, especially during a long run. Fortunately, NÄAK bars have a soft, brownie-like texture that makes them easy to chew and swallow. They are therefore convenient to consume during exercise, when you need quick fuel. What’s more, they withstand extreme temperatures. Their texture holds up in extreme temperatures: they do not melt when it is hot, and you will not break your teeth eating them in winter. These bars have been tested and approved at -20° in Quebec.
