About XACT Nutrition

XACT Nutrition is a Montreal sports nutrition brand founded in 2012. It makes energy bars, gels and electrolyte drinks for endurance athletes, from runners to cyclists.

It suits people training for a marathon, a long bike ride or a cross-country ski race. Keep a bar or a gel in your pocket for long efforts, and use electrolytes on hot summer days when you sweat more. They are also handy for long hikes in Quebec's parks. A small bundle of bars and gels makes a practical gift for a friend training for a race. Choosing XACT supports a local brand made for people who love to move.
