Cyclic Dextrine – rapidly absorbable sugars in the form of cluster dextrin, energy before, during and after endurance performance, does not cause intestinal discomfort, Food supplement
🏃⚡
Fast energy before, during and after endurance exercise
Fast‑absorbing carbohydrates with a neutral, slightly sweet taste and high molecular weight to ensure minimal risk of intestinal discomfort. This and more is what Vilgain Cyclic Dextrin, a scientifically proven ingredient for making a hypotonic sports drink, has to offer.
The ideal carbohydrate for physical activities lasting longer than 70 minutes
Faster carbohydrate absorption than glucose alone
Cluster dextrin has approximately 2500× higher molecular weight than glucose, which reduces its effect on osmolality. This creates a hypotonic sports drink with low osmotic pressure (~150 mOsm), which scientific studies have shown helps to empty the stomach faster and deliver water, electrolytes and energy to the body more efficiently [3].
Fluid osmolality (mOsm/kg)
⬇️ Science‑Backed Fatigue Reduction During Exercise
Scientific studies suggest [3] that Cyclic Dextrin is more effective than other complex carbohydrates such as maltodextrin in promoting delayed fatigue . It probably owes this to its exceptionally high molecular weight.
