QUALITY AND SIMPLICITY
Amino Z Dextrose is a high-calorie carbohydrate powder that is derived from corn. Dextrose digests exceptionally quickly and easily, making it the ideal supplement for people who want to rapidly replenish their glycogen levels during or after exercise. Bodybuilding commonly uses dextrose in post-workout shakes to spike insulin, which improves amino acid/protein uptake. Dextrose is also widely used as an intra-workout supplement for endurance athletes who require high glycogen levels to fuel their training/performance.
What you can expect from Amino Z Dextrose
• A clean carbohydrate source
• An effective method of glycogen replenishment - which can lead to better performance and recovery
• An easy method of increasing calorie intake - which makes it great for weight gain!
Below we have answered some commonly asked questions about this product.
Who should use dextrose monohydrate?
Dextrose monohydrate is a simple carbohydrate powder. It is rapidly absorbed and very quickly digested.
This makes it ideal for individuals who require quick uptake of carbohydrates, such as endurance athletes during long bouts of training or events.
Dextrose is also commonly used in a post-workout context, and mixed with protein. The theory here is that the dextrose will replenish depleted glycogen stores after training, as well as increase insulin sensitivity so that the protein can be absorbed more effectively and quickly. However, this method is theoretical more than factual.
What does the research show for dextrose supplementation?
1. Dextrose can rapidly replenish glycogen levels, particularly post-exercise [1]
2. Dextrose can improve nutrient uptake via an insulin spiking mechanism. [2]

Why is this product so much cheaper than similar products on the market?
Many other brands incur a high degree of costs associated with producing products. It is not uncommon for a product to be produced by a third-party manufacturer and then shipped (or imported) to a wholesaler. The wholesaler then sells to a retail store, who on-sells to the customer. The end result is that often four separate businesses are taking profits at each stage (the brand itself, the manufacturer, the wholesaler and the retailer).
We take a very different approach which allows us to keep our cost structure down and we pass those savings on to you, without sacrificing product quality.
We have our own purpose-built manufacturing plant located in Sydney Australia and we sell directly to you. This eliminates all additional parties from the process, thereby eliminating a lot of unnecessary costs.
The significant cost savings we incur allow us to invest into high quality ingredients while still offering a significantly cheaper final product.
I haven't tried this product before. What if I don't like it?
Because we manufacture this product ourselves, we believe that the onus is on us to produce a high quality product that you're going to love.
That's why we have our 110% Guarantee. Basically if you try it and you don't love it, just reach out to us. You can receive a 110% store credit, or a full refund.
