Science
UCAN’s proprietary low-glycemic carbohydrate, LIVSTEADY™ (formerly known as SuperStarch) is real food, not just an energy booster. Its complex structure means our body releases its energy slowly, so there's no quick sugar spike like with simple carbs. LIVSTEADY™ is only found in UCAN products.
Blood Sugar and Exercise
LIVSTEADY™ is unlike any other fuel—clinically proven to deliver steady energy, prevent sugar crashes, and enhance fat burn during exercise. While sugary fuels spike blood sugar and trigger insulin, LIVSTEADY™ keeps your body in balance by maintaining stable blood sugar levels. This allows you to efficiently burn both fat and carbs when needed.
What are the benefits of LIVSTEADY™?
Long-Lasting Energy
Fast-acting carbohydrates leave the system very quickly because of a big insulin surge. LIVSTEADY™ provides long-lasting and stable energy with no crash, so you don’t have to constantly take in fuel during your exercise.
Easy On The Stomach
LIVSTEADY™ has a low osmolality, which means your stomach is able to handle its molecules relatively quickly – this results in less “sloshing around” your stomach during exercise or activities.
High-Fat Burning Potential
LIVSTEADY™ helps your body burn more fat by keeping blood sugar stable and insulin low. Since fat tissue is sensitive to insulin, lower insulin levels allow your muscles to use fat for fuel instead of relying on the carbohydrates you eat.™
