Say no to maltodextrin.
Malto-what? Maltodextrin is found in most mass-market energy gels, protein powders and sports drinks. It is a cheap, heavily-processed, high glycemic index sugar made from corn or other vegetable starch.
While maltodextrin provides short-term energy, it also gives an equally significant slump, which unsettles your body’s ability to manage a sustainable energy level. it is also associated with upset stomachs, bloating, cramping, nausea and even diarrhoea. None of which are optimum if you're out running, cycling or racing.
The natural alternative
Buzz Power is 100% maltodextrin free. It is made from pure honey, which studies have shown to be a highly effective energy source, providing a more sustained energy boost.

Buzz Power is not an energy ‘gel’ - the consistency of Buzz Power is more like a paste, which makes it convenient to ingest on the run, but just as easily absorbed into the muscles.
The perfect sports supplement
Studies show* honey is one of the most effective sources of energy – delivering a natural performance boost with none of the artificial preservatives, colouring or sweeteners found in conventional energy gels.
