Industrial compotes mostly contain additives and added sugars. Your Baouw purees only contain the sugars naturally present in fruits. These sugars are better absorbed by the body. They are also more caloric because they contain lipids (from extra virgin olive oil) and proteins (more present in savory recipes). They help maintain all the necessary nutrients during exertion while being healthy for your body.

The main difference between your gels and your purées is the carbohydrate content: your purées, which contain no added sugars, contain an average of 15g of carbohydrates, whilst your gels contain 30g, thanks to the natural sugars in the fruit and the added agave syrup. 

The texture of your purées is more filling as they are slightly thicker, and as the recipes are either savoury or sweet, they are better suited to moderate-intensity, long-duration activities. Your gels, which are more concentrated, provide a real energy boost; they are better suited to intense activities and can be consumed either on their own or diluted in a 500ml flask.

In your Baouw, you'll only find fruit, vegetables, oilseeds, plants, spices and extra virgin olive oil. All these foods are organic. You'll also notice that we don't use the term ingredients, but foods, because we prefer ‘real’ cooking. Sports performance is important to Baouw, but only if it goes hand in hand with health.

Your Baouw products do not have an expiration date, only a maximum durability date (from the day of production, this is the recommended optimal consumption date) which can vary from 12 to 24 months from production. This means you can consume them even after: they may have only lost a bit of taste or hardened a little.

Your products are preservative-free. Your recipes have been designed to contain antioxidant ingredients (extra virgin olive oil, fruits, spices, plants ...) and the least refined possible to preserve maximum naturalness while ensuring long-lasting preservation. Notably, thanks to their very protective packaging.

Your Baouw are suitable for all sports in general, and not just for endurance sports. The composition of the recipes guarantees a continuous and healthy energy supply, regardless of the activity practiced. The frequency of use will depend, however, on the type of effort and its intensity.

Your bars, purees, and spreads can also be taken as a healthy snack throughout the day.
