Why should you use a GDA?

Why should you use a GDA?

So, first off, GDAs (Glucose Disposal Agents) are a tool to maximise results, when implemented properly they can be very useful.

GDAs can improve insulin sensitivity which is important for growth and recovery, they can help greatly with nutrient delivery.

If you've been consuming a lot of carbs and your blood sugar has been spiking a lot, perhaps your body fat has increased too much and your insulin sensitivity has reduced, these supplements can help. 

(Caveat to these is that if you are gaining too much fat etc you should look at reducing body fat to a more natural amount to increase how your body responds to food better.)

Who can benefit from a GDA? 

  • a strength athlete consuming high carb meals frequently 
  • someone in a dieting phase wanting to maximise nutrient partitioning 
  • a bodybuilder wanting to utilise the supplements for greater nutrient delivery and avoid excessive fat gain

Ingredients found in GDAs, typically berberine is found in these supplements which is a good ingredient for lowering blood sugar spikes, both fasted & post meal.
