Introduction to Cluster Dextrin

This product is a special carbohydrate that is produced enzymatically from starch. Due to its branched structure, it has a higher molecular weight and a low osmolarity.

This means that cluster dextrin passes through the stomach faster and reaches the small intestine quickly. There it is made available as an energy source - without placing a heavy burden on the digestive tract.

In contrast to classic carbohydrates such as maltodextrin or dextrose, cluster dextrin ensures a more stable release. It is therefore often used in training sessions where consistent energy is required.

What does highly branched cyclic dextrin (HBCD) mean?

HBCD stands for highly branched cyclic dextrin. It is a special form of carbohydrate that is obtained from starch using a special enzymatic process.

The term "highly branched" describes the molecular structure: it is more complex than that of simple carbohydrates such as dextrose or maltodextrin. This structure ensures a higher molecular weight and low osmolarity.

In practical terms, this means that the powder can pass through the stomach quickly and reaches the small intestine quickly. There it is available to the body as a source of carbohydrates. Many athletes appreciate HBCD because it supports a steady supply of energy during long training sessions - without unnecessarily burdening the digestive tract.

Advantages of Cluster Dextrin

This formula combines qualities that make it a special alternative to other carbs.

  • Stable energy supply - steady release, less fluctuation in blood sugar levels.
  • Easy absorption - quickly available in the body without gastric stress.
  • Very good solubility - no lumps, easy to mix in a shaker.
  • Flexible use - suitable for all types of workouts.

The advantages of Cluster Dextrin lie primarily in the combination of rapid availability, high tolerance and consistent energy supply - characteristics that clearly set it apart from dextrose or maltodextrin.

Many athletes report that they use the carbohydrate powder especially during long units to keep their performance constant.

Application & dosage

Cluster Dextrin is easy to use as a powder:

  • Recommended serving: stir 30-60 g of carbohydrate powder into approx. 300 ml of water.
  • Time: Before, during or after training.
  • Flexible: Suitable as a pre-workout drink, intra-workout drink or post-workout drink.

So it's up to you whether you use this product as a quick supplement in everyday life or specifically during training to support your performance.

What is cluster dextrin?
This product is the trade name for highly branched cyclic dextrin (HBCD) - a special carbohydrate powder with high solubility and consistent energy supply. Due to this special formula it has different characteristics than classic carbohydrate sources.
When should you take Cluster Dextrin?
If you are asking yourself the question "When to take Cluster Dextrin", the answer is: It can be used be used flexibly before, during or after a training session - depending on when you benefit most from an additional supply of carbohydrates. Many athletes drink it as a shake before training or after a workout, others use it during longer workouts.
What is cyclic dextrin?
This carbohydrate is the scientific name for the well-known product cluster dextrin. It is the same raw material - just under a different name. name. It is also often referred to as highly branched powder or under the abbreviation HBCD. abbreviation HBCD.
What is the difference between maltodextrin and cluster dextrin?
Maltodextrin and glucose provide energy, but can cause insulin levels to rise very quickly and thus lead to short-term fluctuations. The highly branched cyclic dextrin (HBCD), on the other hand, is characterized by a more stable energy supply and better absorption properties. These differences make it a popular alternative for athletes who want a more consistent release.
Is Cluster Dextrin suitable for endurance and strength sports?
Whether in everyday life, during workouts or in competitions - the flexible use of this supplement suits different goals and can provide a stable basis for personal performance in many sports. basis for personal performance in many sports.
