Banned substance statement: DOWNLOAD
Mix two scoops (1 Nrgy Unit) with 500 ml of water and drink before or during exercise when using for races or training sessions or drink throughout the day.
TIP: In hot conditions, you may increase the amount of water to 750 ml.

NOTICE: Some versions of Nrgy Unit Drink have incorrect dosage instructions on the preprinted bag. Is it one or two scoops? Here's the explanation!
This is a special product meant for endurance athletes who wish to improve their endurance when operating above the second lactate threshold. In other words, it allows you to push harder during short periods (3 to 15 minutes) of extreme intensity. The product is based on sodium bicarbonate, which preserves pH levels. This reduces muscle soreness and fatigue, allowing you to push harder and farther.
Beyond the Limit
Improve your endurance above your lactate threshold. Reduce soreness and fatigue of your muscles when operating at maximum intensity.
High Energy Intake
Nrgy Unit Drink is designed to allow high-energy intakes. Two servings per hour will get you through your hardest challenges.
Optimal Carbohydrate Ratio
A combination of glucose and fructose in the 1:0.8 ratio is proven by science to be optimal for carbohydrate absorption during intense exercise.
No Digestive Issues
Without excess glucose stuck in your gut or too much magnesium irritating your bowels, you greatly limit the risk of digestive issues.
No Muscle Cramps
Muscle cramps are usually caused by a lack of energy. A high energy intake during intense exercise is the best way to protect your muscles.
Mix and Match
All our fueling products are designed to work in tandem with each other. Try them out and see what combination works best for you.
Master of Energy
To facilitate your carbohydrate intake during exercise, all our fueling products are based on Nrgy Unit, which equals 45 grams of carbohydrates.
No Compromise
We never compromise when it comes to the quality of our ingredients. Expect only the best and the most natural stuff we could get.
Simply Science
We base all our products on the latest scientific research and nothing else. If the science doesn't approve of it, neither do we.
No Bullshit
We're not here to sell you a product that doesn't work. Our mission is to help you become a better athlete. Don't like our product? Let us know!
