PhD Nutrition has created GlycoDurance, an innovative training and race fuel with the lowest serum osmolarity in the industry.
GlycoDurance contains three key elements; a scientific blend of electrolytes; Sustamine® L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine to quickly release glucose into the bloodstream and boost the body's recovery time; and Cluster Dextrin®, which passes through the stomach faster than any other carbohydrate source. That means a quick but sustained release of glucose into the bloodstream.
Sustamine® works to enhance the absorption of electrolytes in the powder blend, as well as improve water absorption in the intestines while also stimulating glycogen production.* Muscles must be hydrated and engorged with glycogen to perform at their peak and when it's all over, the body needs to recover. That's where Sustamine® comes in. Glutamine, the key component of Sustamine® is the most abundant single amino acid in the body, and it's considered conditionally essential during times when the body undergoes large amounts of stress -- like during intense endurance events, training or dealing with the challenges of everyday life.
