Vitargo S2

Vitargo S2 is the super-soluble form of the fastest recovery and re-fuel carbohydrate ever proven in various university research studies in humans. Vitargo S2 uses a patented and 100% sugar-free molecular carbohydrate. No maltodextrin, sugars, or even waxy or enzyme-modified starches. Its patented IVg technology delivers proven faster guy transit, glycemic and insulin responses, glycogen re-fueling, and performance.

Highlights:

• Leaves the stomach quicker: 130% faster than maltodextrin and sugars - in the first 10 minutes after ingestion. This leads to less stomach "distress" and faster absorbing muscle energy.
• Gets into muscle faster: 68% faster glycogen re-fueling than maltodextrin and sugars after intense, exhaustive workouts.
• Boosts performance in your next workout: Up to 23% greater maximal endurance (average of 10% greater) 2 hours after exhaustivev, glycogen-depleting exercise, compared to maltodextrin and sugars.
• Turns off muscle protein breakdown: 178% greater insulin than maltodextrin and sugars, within 10 minutes - the most potent, natural way to activate the anti-catabolic signals that spare muscle protein.

Is Vitargo the same thing as “waxy maize” or high molecular weight starches?

Vitargo can be made from most plant starches—what makes Vitargo patented and the Fastest Muscle Fuel™ is not the source or the molecular size but the unique, patented molecular “handprint”, proven in university studies in athletes—not lab rats or test tubes—to greatly outperform other ordinary carbs, from your gut to getting more performance within 2 hours after exhaustive exercise. In fact, the first two studies done on Vitargo used potato starch as the starting source. For several years through 2005, Vitargo was made from a special strain of corn that is higher in starch—waxy maize. This is where other companies have gotten the idea of using different “waxy maize” starches. However, none of these other, non-Vitargo starches have any human studies showing a Vitargo effect. Furthermore, some of these unproven carbohydrate source might even cost less, however some of them, based upon laboratory analysis, are likely to be indigestible, delivering little or no glucose to the blood, liver, and muscles.

How does Vitargo work?

Vitargo is a molecule that dwarfs sugars (e.g glucose, fructose and sucrose) as well as maltodextrin, the carbs found in ordinary energy and recovery drinks. Vitargo’s larger size minimizes its osmolality, which refers to how much water it draws around it. Vitargo®’s low osmolality allows it to move through the stomach over 2X faster than other carbohydrates, which tend to act more like a sponge in the stomach. Spending less time in the stomach allows Vitargo® to be delivered to the part of the intestinal tract—the duodenum—where it is rapidly digested and absorbed. This provides a near immediate surge in energy to blood and muscle, superior to other ordinary carbohydrates. After training or competition is over Vitargorecovers glycogen 168% faster, allowing for an increase in performance up to 23% greater after just two hours when compared to carbohydrates found in ordinary sport and recovery drinks.

What does the “S2” mean?

Vitargo is made from barley and is considered a starch, amylopectin to be exact. In general, starches don’t mix very well in water. Vitargo S2 is a Super Soluble form that mixes more easily in water than other starches, and even previous forms of Vitargo.

Is Vitargo S2 Sugar Free?

Unlike most other sport drinks and recovery supplements Vitargo is 100% sugar free! That means that you can enjoy Vitargo before, during or after training or anytime and not be concerned about taking in any sugars.
