Cyclic Dextrin
Cyclic Dextrin 1kg, 33 Servings per tub.
Our Cyclic Dextrin is a market-leading top-shelf intra-workout carbohydrate supplement consisting of the hugely renowned highly branched cluster dextrin. Cluster Dextrin is the champion of fast-digesting carbohydrates, making it an essential and highly effective intra-workout supplement to provide your muscles with almost instant fuel. Highly branched cluster dextrin has been scientifically proven to digest and work more efficiently and effectively than any other carbohydrate source on the market.
Created from the trademarked Cluster Dextrin it is far superior to a stand alone maltodextrin.
WHEN SHOULD I TAKE IT AND HOW MUCH?
Mix one scoop with 300ml of water and consume before, during or after a workout. It is recommended to consume intra-workout for instant energy. Who is it for? Everyone. Quite simply, whether you’re a cyclist, bodybuilder, functional athlete or martial artist, this product will take your training to the next level, allowing you to push harder and for longer.

Cluster dextrin V cyclic dextrin
For clarification, Cyclic Dextrin goes by three primary names including; Highly Branched Cyclic Dextrin® (HBCD), Cluster Dextrin®, and Cyclic Dextrin®. They’re all referring to the same thing. In this product and our blogs we use the name Cyclic Dextrin. Cyclic Dextrin is a registered trademarked ingredient produced by Glico Nutrition.
CLUSTER DEXTRIN™ (FDA Notified GRAS)
“An Endurance Study with Cluster Dextrin demonstrated a 50% increase to fatigue.*Cluster Dextrin improved Gastric Emptying Time compared in Glucose & Dextrin based solutions.*Note; FDA has not evaluated the statement above.Cluster Dextrin is not intended to diagnose, cure or prevent any disease.” –Glico.
Structure and Manufacturing Process
Cluster Dextrin is manufactured by applying an enzyme called a branching enzyme to cornstarch . The branching enzyme works on the joint of the cluster structure of amylopectin and degrades it by cyclization. Thus, Cluster Dextrin is considered to maintain the cluster structure, which is the basic structural unit of amylopectin, nearly as it is. –Glico.
Component for Sports Drink
Shorter residence time in the stomach allows design of a sports drink that is quickly absorbed in the body.
Usually, in the case of beverages with electrolytes only, 280 mOsm (same osmotic pressure as bodily fluid) is absorbed quickest. However, our research revealed that gastric emptying when the beverages contain carbohydrates, with a low osmotic pressure beverage of approximately 150 mOsm, is the shortest in proportion to the osmotic pressure of the beverage and gastric emptying (transfer time from stomach to intestine)*1).
That is, if low molecular weight carbohydrates such as glucose are used, osmotic pressure becomes higher even if the concentration is the same (620 mOsm in 10% solution), and only leads to preparation of slow gastric emptying beverages.
On the other hand, if approximately 2500-fold higher average molecular weight Cluster Dextrin compared to glucose is used, osmotic pressure is hardly affected and hypotonic sports drinks can be readily designed, even though electrolytes, vitamins, and amino acids, which are essential for sports drinks, are combined.

We confirmed that the endurance increasing effect can be obtained by consuming a beverage containing Cluster Dextrin !
Beverages combining Cluster Dextrin are characterized to contain highly concentrated carbohydrate and fast gastric empting. Therefore, the carbohydrate energy, moisture, and electrolytes consumed during exercise can be re-supplied promptly. We confirmed that administration of Cluster Dextrin to mice significantly increased the swimming time (=endurance) in endurance swimming compared to administration of water and glucose solution*2).
Moreover, we investigated the critical swimming time of top swimmers swimming in a flowing water pool after taking each beverage shown in Figure. As a result, it was revealed that swimming time is significantly extended when Cluster Dextrin containing beverage is consumed compared to the cases with other beverages.

The Caribbean and Spinegrapple flavours mixed together are freakin' delicious! Used intra-workout for my more tougher sessions, they help maintain my intensity and prevent me feeling completely drained post workout.
Yet again an outstanding product and service from the CF team 💪🏼
Highly recommended for any kind of physical exercise, and when you need that something extra, more than pushing yourself that little extra.
Can’t fault it
10/10
Definitely makes a difference to my endurance when using for the gym or running.
