What is Cluster Dextrin?
Cluster dextrin is a highly branched cyclic dextrin, classified as a carbohydrate. It is commonly used as a carbohydrate source in sports nutrition supplements, particularly in products marketed for energy and sports recovery. Due to its unique molecular structure, cluster dextrin is favored for its solubility and low viscosity, making it suitable for inclusion in ready-to-drink formulations and powders. It is often incorporated into intra-workout and post-workout products to provide a sustained carbohydrate supply.
