What is Evodextrin?
Evodextrin by SportSeries is a powder vegan food supplement based on highly branched cyclic dextrin (100% Cluster Dextrin™) with flavour.
Evodextrin is the flavoured version of Cluster Dextrin® (Highly Branched Cyclic Dextrin) powder by RawSeries.
Evodextrin is suitable for vegans.
Why take Evodextrin?
Because it is a technological carbohydrate, ideal for athletes who do intense sports and are looking for a complex carbohydrate with excellent digestibility.
The importance of carbohydrates
Carbs are a very important nutrient for sports practice, as:
They contribute to the recovery of normal muscle function (contraction) after high-intensity or long-term physical exercise that leads to muscle fatigue and depletion of glycogen stored in skeletal muscles.1
Sugar-free
The unique structure of highly branched cyclic dextrin provides a 100% complex carbohydrate, with no sugar in its composition, which is easily digested and absorbed, unlike other complex carbohydrates.
With unique features
Cluster Dextrin™ is unrivalled as it shares structural characteristics that affect its nutritional properties in such a way that any athlete can benefit from its use.
Amongst them:
High molecular weight
Like other complex carbohydrates, but in a much narrower range (which makes it a raw material with very low variability, meaning it always has the same characteristics).
Despite the high molecular weight, thanks to its cyclic structure, which allows more efficient stability in water; and to its high density of glucose branches, which allows faster hydrolysis.
Cluster Dextrin has excellent digestibility.
And it doesn't increase the osmotic pressure of the drink to as much degree as other simpler carbohydrates, which means you can use greater amounts without experiencing gases or digestive discomfort during workouts and competitions.
Low sweetness
Another important feature of the Cluster Dextrin™ is its great, not-too-sweet flavour.
Because it's a complex carbohydrate, it has a very low degree of sweetness, and its taste is reminiscent of starch, like other complex carbohydrates.
This is positive because it allows a larger quantity to be used in the container without resulting in an unpleasant experience of being excessively sweet, as is the case with sugars such as glucose in high quantities.
Despite being a complex carbohydrate of plant origin, the degree of acidity it presents is extremely low, resulting in a better taste, for its stability in the liquid medium and the low formation of acetic acid that it presents when left to soak for hours in water.
You can use Cluster Dextrin™ as a unique carbohydrate, and the taste result will be balanced.

Balanced flavours
At HSN we're athletes too, and we use our own products to supplement our daily diet.
We know that many users of Cluster Dextrin™ take the product during their workouts as a carbohydrate part of their sports drinks, so we've adjusted its taste.
To a mid-level, which is nice, but not excessively sweet resulting in a better experience even when used in high quantities.
Vegan-friendly
Evodextrin is a carbohydrate that comes from the treatment of corn, so it's a carbohydrate of plant origin.
100% Vegan.
Gluten-free
Evodextrin is manufactured with Cluster Dextrin™, a carbohydrate from corn, a gluten-free cereal.
Thanks to our controlled manufacturing in clean rooms, where we maintain a strict handling of allergens, we can guarantee the total absence of gluten in the product.
Evodextrin is gluten-free and suitable for coeliacs.

1 The beneficial effect is obtained by consuming carbohydrates from all sources with a total intake of 4g per kg of body weight, in doses taken within four hours (or at most six) after completing a high-intensity or long-term physical exercise leading to muscle fatigue and depletion of glycogen stored in skeletal muscles.
