Vitargo® 20% Extra Free - 6kg For The Price Of 5kg! 5 day special ends on Friday 20th January 2012 or while stocks last. What is Vitargo®? Vitargo® is the ultimate sports performance carbohydrate, manufactured in Sweden by Lyckeby
Starch using a unique patented process.
***Please note that BulkPowders.co.uk stocks Vitargo® S2, which is the super-soluble form of Vitargo®.
Starch-based products in general do not mix well in liquids, however this form of Vitargo® has been produced
in such a way that solubility is not an issue.*** How is Vitargo® different to other carbohydrate sources? Vitargo® consists of much larger carbohydrate molecules than other sugar-based carbohydrates such
as
dextrose, fructose, sucrose and
maltodextrin; which are often the preserve of the mainstream sports drinks
you find in various gyms and supermarkets. These larger molecules ultimately enable
Vitargo® to move through
the stomach 80% faster than the aforementioned products. The result of this is that
Vitargo® is absorbed
extremely quickly and provides almost instant energy to working muscles. Furthermore when
Vitargo® is consumed
after training or competition, it replenishes muscle glycogen levels 70% faster than other sports drinks, enabling
faster recovery and an increase in performance of approximately 23%! What’s more
Vitargo® is also 100% sugar-free!
What is important to note here is that these claims are backed by clinical testing (carried out at the Karolinska
Institute, Stockholm) and are not examples of the exaggerated claims that product manufacturer’s often make.
To view these clinical studies please click here and here. Where to find Vitargo®: Vitargo® is produced from barley starch. Barley starch is naturally occurring in foodstuffs such as cereals
and grains. These products will not however have anywhere near the same properties as
Vitargo® due to
the patented process by which it is produced.
Why use Vitargo®? Supplementing with
Vitargo® can have numerous benefits on sporting performance:
Increase Energy — Due to the rapid nature in which
Vitargo® passes through the stomach, it is absorbed by the working
muscles 80% faster than sugar based carbohydrates such as
dextrose and
maltodextrin. This means that
Vitargo® is the
best way for athletes to gain almost instant energy and without suffering from the ‘crash’ or ‘come-down’ inevitably
experienced with sugar-based products. To this extent
Vitargo® is an ideal supplement for endurance athletes such as
tri-athletes, long-distance runners and cyclists, but would also be beneficial for anybody participating on physical activity
for 45 minutes or longer.
Increase Endurance — It is stated that endurance athletes should undertake carbohydrate loading for around 3 days prior
to competition. For an average 75kg person this would mean approximately 600g of digestible carbohydrates per day, or
the equivalent of 2.5kg of boiled pasta! This is almost impossible for most people to consume, but using
Vitargo® this would
simply mean drinking around 5 x 75g servings on top of your daily food intake.
Improve Performance — Alongside carbohydrate loading it is vital to ensure that blood sugar levels remain elevated during
competition or intense training periods. When blood sugar levels start to decrease it is scientifically proven that levels of
performance also drop. It is recommended that for every hour of exertion you should consume around 1g-1.5g of carbohydrates
per kg of bodyweight. A 75kg athlete should therefore be taking on around 75g-112g of carbohydrates per hour during exercise.
Using
Vitargo® is the ideal way to ensure your body receives this necessary amount of carbohydrates to keep blood sugar levels
elevated and thereby ensuring optimal physical performance.
Improve Recovery — Taking
Vitargo® immediately after exercise has been proven to replenish muscle glycogen 70% faster
than other carbohydrates. Low glycogen levels lead to fatigue and extend recovery periods needed after exercise. Supplementing
with
Vitargo® can prevent fatigue, muscle soreness and also reduce recovery periods needed between training sessions.
