The Facts on Waxy Maize, Vitargo, and other carb sources
As found on Muscular Development Magazine

© 2009

A few years back a bunch of studies supported the concept that both the timing and type of carbohydrate athletes used could have positive effects – for both aerobic and anaerobic oriented athletes. Since then there has been a rush to find the “best” pre and post workout carb source. As is typical for the bodybuilding/fitness industry, a new “miracle” carb source burst onto the market almost monthly promising muscle growth second only to an Anadrol* enema, but I digress… The point being, there’s been a great deal of information, misinformation, and down right disinformation, regarding these “amazing miracle anabolic” carb sources. The …show more content…

Vitargo, and why sellers of WMS have taken advantage of that fact. Vitargo can be derived from WMS, so they are essentially the same thing right? Wrong. Vitargo can be derived from WMS, potatoes, rice, wheat, and other sources, so even if WMS is used as the starting source, it’s a very different starch as the finished product. If one reads the patent on Vitargo***** there is a very interesting statement made which is on testing, “it will be found there have occurred novel types of bonds which do not occur traditionally in native starch.” What that means is, it’s a starch not normally found in nature and is structurally and functionally different than the starch source it was derived from. A true “designer starch” if you will, which appears to be optimally designed to favor the rapid formation of …show more content…

Notes:

*= Anadrol, the brand name for a powerful oral anabolic steroid.

** = The GI of a carb is not the only factor responsible for the benefits of various post/pre workout carbs.

***= A “resistant starch” is resistant to digestive enzymes that break down starch into glucose for absorption. This study used a resistant starch that was 100% pure amylose.

**** = 60 min cycling at 75% VO2 max followed by 6X 1min sprints at 125% VO2 max with 1 minute rest between sprints.

***** = US Patent # 5,929,052

Also during exercise the amount of glucose produced by cells increases due the requirement for more ATP from working muscles, than from those at rest. The influx of glucose to the bloodstream after consuming a meal or snack shows how the components of the glucose homeostasis system work together to re-establish normal blood glucose concentration. The rainbow rage is a long and tiresome race, therefore, blood glucose levels may run low due to their depletion.

This may happen particularly if the person has been exercising, says Amy Goodson, RD, sports dietitian for the Dallas Cowboys. "When the person exercises in a dehydrated state, he/she uses glycogen (stored carbohydrate) at a faster rate, thus diminishing his/her stores more quickly." So once he/she finishes exercising, he/she will likely crave carbs to help him/her to replenish

Based on the alternate hypothesis that suggested pumpkin seeds would release the most energy, the results shown support the statement. Although the pumpkin seeds are shown to have a higher energy content than the croutons, there was no drastic difference between the mean or total energy content of both, therefore the null hypothesis can not be entirely refuted. It is evident how the calorific content of the foods are dependent on their constituent molecules, yet the alternate hypothesis was based on the premise that lipids contained more calories per gram than carbohydrates, thus lipids would release more energy. Yet there is not enough evidence to suggest that the alternate hypothesis is correct since the lipid and carbohydrate content of

Two days before the experiment, participants were nude-weighed to calculate the amount of energy drinks they had. The rugby players did the same exercise every time before a test. They were told to keep away from caffeine, and alcohol two days before the test. On the day of the experimental trials, participants ate three hours before they began the tests. Before the game, urine samples were collected from the players.

The results of the phenol-sulfuric acid analysis conducted in this experiment suggest that the data acquired was relatively precise but inaccurate with respect to the given carbohydrate concentrations of the soda and Gatorade samples. Using a standard curve generated from a glucose solution with a known concentration, the carbohydrate concentration of the samples was determined (in terms of glucose) and a low coefficient of variation was calculated. However, a high percent relative error was apparent in the analysis of both samples. This may have been due to the fact that the analysis was conducted assuming glucose was the carbohydrate of interest, while, in fact, a significant portion of the monosaccharides would have existed as fructose (a
