the ucan vision

Our vision was inspired by Jonah - a young boy in the US who needed healthy energy that led to the creation of SuperStarch.

This is the only carbohydrate of its kind that delivers sustained energy, helps you burn fat, lets you recover efficiently and allows you to perform at your peak. We are redefining the world of sports and fitness with natural, safe and healthy nutrition.

Diagnosed at birth with a rare metabolic disorder, Jonah’s body was unable to break down certain carbohydrates, including glycogen. Determined to put a stop to constant hospital visits, SuperStarch was invented, and soon after that, UCAN company was born.

how we started in the uk

Our son was an excellent swimmer, but when he went through reactions to all food, his training had a huge impact.

After seeing a specialist for years, we tried to work out which food was causing these problems to materialise. After a while, his diet was limited to lamb, turkey, fish, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, glucose and sucrose, together with the Elemental 028. It affected his training and didn't give him enough energy to accomplish what he needed to.

After going through all this, his grandfather discovered SuperStarch. From that moment on, energy for training was not a problem. In the absence of a UK source, we went into business and became the supplier in this country.
