Description

Viking Power Gungnir – Glucose Disposal Agent

Advanced GDA supplement specially designed to increase insulin sensitivity and enhance the effect of insulin in the body.

• High-dosed premium-class GDA supplement.
• For increased muscle volume and reduced fat storage.
• With corosolic acid, bitter melon, and 6-paradol.
• High dose of chromium for maximum blood sugar control.
• Nutrient optimization complex – AstraGin® and black pepper extract.
• Made in Sweden.

Viking Power Gungnir is a well-formulated GDA supplement specifically designed to optimize the body’s insulin response, maximize blood sugar control, and inhibit fat storage. The unique formula consists of 10 potent ingredients that effectively improve the body’s ability to absorb nutrients and handle glucose. Among these 10 carefully selected ingredients are high doses of chromium, biotin, and R-ALA, combined with high-quality extracts of barberry, bitter melon, African mango, and banaba. Banaba, for instance, is rich in corosolic acid and has a positive effect on the body’s sugar metabolism, promoting weight control.

In addition, the formula is reinforced with not just one but two nutrient optimizers. The patented extract blend AstraGin®, along with a high dose of black pepper extract at 10 mg, creates a synergistic effect that improves nutrient absorption and bioavailability. This results in more efficient utilization of all other ingredients in the supplement. In short, the formula doesn’t just enhance insulin response and carbohydrate metabolism – it also maximizes nutrient absorption and utilization, ensuring that all nutrients are used optimally by the body to promote muscle growth!

What is GDA?

GDA stands for Glucose Disposal Agent, usually consisting of a combination of several ingredients or a higher dose of a single ingredient. The purpose of a GDA supplement is to improve the body’s ability to handle glucose, also referred to as insulin sensitivity. GDA supplements are sometimes called insulin mimickers or insulin enhancers because their effects resemble those of insulin.

GDA complexes can also be found in more advanced recovery supplements, such as Viking Power Rebirth, which contains high doses of carbohydrates. By including a GDA complex, the supplement helps the body handle the large amount of carbohydrates it contains, optimizing recovery.

For those who train hard and consume carbohydrate-rich meals, a GDA supplement becomes particularly interesting. By increasing the body’s insulin sensitivity and glucose management, and with proper timing, glucose can be directed into muscle cells rather than stored in fat cells. This not only maximizes glycogen storage in muscles but also reduces fat storage.

Insulin

Insulin is a vital hormone produced in the pancreas and released into the blood when glucose levels (blood sugar) rise, such as after a carbohydrate-rich meal. Insulin’s primary role is to regulate blood sugar levels and stimulate the uptake of nutrients such as amino acids, glucose, and fats into cells. When insulin sensitivity decreases, the body struggles to efficiently manage nutrients, particularly glucose, leading to elevated blood sugar levels and glucose being stored as fat. Genetics, diet, and lifestyle all influence the likelihood of developing insulin resistance.

Using a GDA supplement, such as one with banaba and chromium, can help improve insulin sensitivity. Both chromium and banaba help regulate blood sugar and prevent rapid blood sugar spikes after meals. This promotes better glucose control and more stable blood sugar levels, which are crucial for maintaining consistent energy levels and avoiding crashes.

For Increased Muscle Volume and Reduced Fat Storage

The purpose of using a GDA supplement is to optimize the body’s glucose management and ensure that storage occurs in muscle cells rather than fat cells. The more nutrients stored in muscle cells, the stronger the anabolic response – similar to how creatine works.

If you aim to maximize fat-free muscle mass, you should combine carbohydrate intake with a GDA supplement. By giving the body better tools to manage large amounts of carbohydrates, you increase your chances of gaining fat-free mass – meaning muscles.

 

• Bitter melon contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism and helps maintain normal blood sugar levels.
• Banaba positively supports the body’s sugar metabolism and contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism.
• Banaba promotes weight control. Cinnamon helps maintain normal blood sugar levels.
• Barberry contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism and normal triglyceride levels in the blood.
• Black pepper enhances the absorption of nutrients and herbal extracts.
• Chromium contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism and helps maintain normal blood sugar levels.
• Biotin contributes to normal energy metabolism and the metabolism of macronutrients.
• Astragalus supports mental and physical well-being.
• Astragalus is an adaptogen and helps protect against mental and physical stress.
• Panax notoginseng promotes normal cardiovascular health.

Note: It is important to have a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
