Waxy Maize Starch

[Jaco-fiets]

I came accross this supplement the other day at Dischem. Its claimed to go through the digestive track much quicker than normal carbs. Therefor the glycogen in the muscles get filled quicker. Can we use this during a ride as well?

Here's the product info:

 

SSN?s Cytomaize is an advanced intra and post-workout Glycogen loading, cell volumising, hypertrophy activating formulation, researched and developed in accordance with the latest scientific advancements in performance nutrition.

Cytomaize has been formulated with ultra high molecular weight waxy maize starch, which is scientifically proven to pass through the digestive tract faster and more efficiently than other more commonly used forms of carbohydrates such as glucose or maltodextrin (glucose polymer). Its unique, highly-branched structure allows it to pass through your stomach ultra-fast, with no bloating, thus re-charging your muscles with glycogen to power you through the most grueling of workouts. This enhanced rate of glycogen synthesis also ensures optimal post-workout replenishment of depleted muscle glycogen stores facilitating maximum muscle recovery, supporting your ?anabolic drive? and maximising post-training muscle hypertrophy.

In addition the incorporation of easily digested, ultra-fast-acting whey protein isolate and hydrolysate along with a proprietary blend of hypertrophy supporting free form amino acids complements Cytomaize?s fast action, initiating rapid delivery of anabolic and anti-catabolic nutrients into the blood, thereby re-fuelling depleted muscles with the nutrients they need for optimal recovery and enhanced post-workout muscle gain.

The inclusion of Beta-Alanine further supports increased training intensity and enhanced muscular endurance whilst Cytomaize?s proprietary ?insulin-potentiating? matrix comprised of Vanadyl Sulphate, Alpha Lipoic Acid and Chromium Picolinate, synergistically acts to support insulin function and thereby further encourage rapid nutrient and substrate delivery to your muscles.

Last but not least, the anti-oxidants - vitamins C & E, round off the formulation by playing a vital role in scavenging exercise induced free radicals and in so doing help minimise muscle tissue damage, reduce post-training muscle soreness and speed recovery.

With SSN?s Cytomaize - Advanced Intra and Post-Workout Cell Volumising Muscle Growth Amplifier ? you can get ready to take muscle cell volumisation, strength gains and muscle anabolism to new, uncharted levels! You will literally see and feel its extremely powerful effects with every set you complete from here on in!

Recommended Usage

? Mix 2 servings (2 heaped scoops ? 60 g) of SSN?s Cytomaize with 650-750 ml of cold water and shake vigorously. Continue to shake intermittently to prevent settling of ingredients.

? SSN?s Cytomaize is designed to be sipped during short periods of rest between hardcore weight-training sets. Each sip should be about 30 ml to allow the formula to last the entire duration of your workout and to provide key anabolic/anti-catabolic substrates for maximum muscle building effects. Finish the balance immediately upon completion of your workout.

? This pack provides a one month supply if you work out four times a week. SSN?s Cytomaize is an advanced intra & post-workout muscle growth amplifier and thus only needs to be consumed on training days.

? Maintain an adequate state of hydration during use.
