Cyclic dextrin as a source of carbohydrates

Cyclic dextrin is a particularly high-quality cyclic dextrin, which is obtained by the hydrolysis of starch. This production process gives it a special structure that ensures a long-lasting supply of glucose.

It is also known as Cluster Dextrin™ and is characterized by its ideal bioavailability.

Important: Food supplements are only ever a supplement to a balanced and healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Increase performance

Dextrin is a source of carbohydrates that can be used optimally before, during and after training. Carbohydrates are an important source of energy, which is particularly important for athletes in order to achieve maximum performance. Especially during training and under high stress, quickly available carbohydrates in the form of dextrin can ensure performance by supplying the muscles with energy.

Special features of cyclic dextrin

Cyclic dextrin has a decisive advantage over other carbohydrate sources such as dextrose and maltodextrin:

With dextrin, there is no sharp rise in blood sugar levels, ensuring a longer energy supply.

Key facts

• Simply mix into water or a protein shake
• Suitable for vegans
• Good solubility and digestibility

FAQ Cyclic Dextrin

Why is Cyclic Dextrin an optimal source of carbohydrates for training?

Taking cyclic dextrin can improve endurance in particular and also delay signs of fatigue because it is available to the muscles very quickly.

Another advantage is the easy digestibility of dextrin: it is not heavy on the stomach and thus provides you with energy even during a hard workout without weighing you down.

Carbohydrates are also important after training to support muscle recovery. Cyclic Dextrin is therefore also perfect for supplementing your post-workout shake.

How is Cyclic Dextrin produced?

Cyclic Dextrin is obtained by the hydrolysis of starch.

Is a measuring spoon included?

Our Cyclic Dextrin contains a measuring spoon, the recommended intake is 60g.

When is the best time to take Cyclic Dextrin?

It is best to take the dextrin before, during or after physical exercise. To do this, mix it with 300ml of liquid of your choice.

Why is cyclic dextrin more expensive than maltodextrin?

The difference lies in the manufacturing process of the two carbohydrate powders. Cyclic dextrin has a unique molecular structure and causes blood sugar levels to rise only slowly during exercise. It is significantly more complex and time-consuming to produce. Maltodextrin raises blood sugar levels very quickly. As a rule, you want a slower and more constant blood sugar level during training. If you are only interested in the calories, you can of course also buy maltodextrin.

Can I mix Cyclic Dextrin with a magnesium effervescent tablet?

You can mix Cyclic Dextrin with a magnesium effervescent tablet without any problems.
