Species Carbolyze Banana - 4.4 lbs helps bring nutrients and supplements into the bloodstream so they can boost muscle performance, improve recovery, and stimulate protein synthesis with 39 gm of long-chain carbohydrates per scoop. This represents the future of carb replacement drinks! It contains two key recuperative ingredients: Waxy maize starch and D-ribose.
Waxy Maize Starch: This ingredient is a long-chain, high molecular weight carbohydrate that contains no sugar and moves through the stomach 80% faster than maltodextrin or dextrose. This carb is 100 times the size of maltodextrin and 3000 times the size of dextrose. Waxy maize starch speeds up glycogen resynthesis and muscle nutrient uptake without causing any bloating or cramping.
Why are high molecular weight carbs like waxy maize starch better than many other carbs? Consider this analogy: Imagine yourself swimming in the ocean. A cruise ship passes by, which displaces a large amount of water, creating a vacuum that sucks you into the ship’s wake. Now imagine swimming in the ocean with a jet ski passing by. The jet ski only weighs a bit more than you do, so it doesn’t create a vacuum and therefore doesn’t affect your position in the water. Think of waxy maize starch as the cruise ship. Because of its size, it pulls water and nutrients (amino acids, glutamine, creatine, etc.) that are consumed with it into the bloodstream, and then into muscle cells where they are put to work. Smaller carbohydrates can’t create that pull, and that’s why they aren’t as effective.
D-Ribose: This is a naturally occurring 5-pentose carb molecule that exists in all living cells and is used in ATP production. ATP is the main source of energy for all cellular processes. This molecule works with the waxy maize starch molecules to provide amazing muscle energy and performance.
