Vitargo

WHAT IS VITARGO?

Vitargo® is a unique carbohydrate because it is specially processed to yield a high molecular weight profile that is massively different from the carbohydrates that make up sugars (e.g. glucose, fructose, sucrose) and maltodextrin found in ordinary sport, energy, and recovery drinks.

The highly regarded raw starch of Vitargo comes mainly from specially selected and strict non-GMO contract farming in the south-east of Sweden. The farmer-owned cooperative plant in south-east Sweden where Vitargo is produced is completely computerized and controlled to ensure the highest quality grade available. The Vitargo powder is processed in a “closed system”, in a factory which only produces starch, so there is no risk of contamination. 

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Vitargo is proven to work in athletes—in peer-reviewed published university studies.* Part of the secret of Vitargo's technology is its molecular size. Scientists use molecular weight (how heavy the molecule is) to determine the size of molecules. As shown in the table, Vitargo is hundreds and thousands of times larger than maltodextrin and sucrose (dextrose).

CARBOHYDRATE MOLECULAR WEIGHT

• High Molecular Weight Vitargo 500,000 to 700,000
• Maltodextrin 1,000 to 10,000
• Starch syrup 250 to 1,000 Sucrose (Dextrose) 180

Vitargo's larger size minimizes its osmolality, which refers to how much water it attracts around itself, or pulls into your intestines. Vitargo's low osmolality allows it to move through the stomach faster than other carbohydrates, which tend to act more like a sponge in the stomach. This helps you feel emptier compared to any other carbohydrate drink. Spending less time in the stomach allows Vitargo to be delivered faster to the intestinal tract where it is rapidly digested and absorbed. This provides a near immediate energy boost to blood and muscle, superior to other ordinary carbohydrates.* After training or competition, Vitargo recovers glycogen stores faster, allowing for an increase in performance.*

FUEL BEFORE

Vitargo starts emptying from your stomach in just 10 minutes: more than 2 times faster than the other known fast carb, maltodextrin. Within 10 minutes Vitargo is on its way to deliver high-octane carbs to your muscle and brain cells to fuel your training. Vitargo is a complex starch that is so rapidly emptied from the stomach and fully digestible that there is no sense of stomach fullness. That means that you can fuel and refuel on the fly during your exercise bouts with virtually all the energy that you need to beat the challenge!

FUEL DURING

Vitargo blows the doors off of carbohydrate fuel replenishment, getting glucose to muscle cells faster. Your brain receives the signal that you've got fuel on board—full speed ahead to burn energy! Now these carbs know exactly where to go—they become fuel for your muscles to train hard, and calorie burn and after burn are maximized! Training effect and sculpting are optimized!*

FUEL AFTER

Vitargo led to nearly 2 times higher and faster muscle fuel recovery just 2 hours after exhaustive exercise. Train, and train again the same day. After exercise you can combine Vitargo with your favorite protein for measurable recovery—measurable performance enhancement!*

UNIVERSITY PROVEN GAME CHANGER!

Vitargo is among a rare breed of supplements with independent university-based scientific research backing up every single claim! Conducted by world-class scientists, multiple published studies establish the physiologic pathway that Vitargo, the key starch ingredient in Vitargo, takes in the body to be the Fastest Body Fuel™: from stomach to intestine to bloodstream to muscle cells, and ultimately to the support of enhanced performance and recovery.*

STACKING

Vitargo can be stacked with your favorite non-carb supplements (protein, pre-workout, amino acids, electrolytes, creatine, etc.). A clinical study showed that stacking Vitargo with L-carnitine led to measurable benefits for athletes. L-carnitine alone did nothing. Vitargo improves the absorption and storage of creatine. Stacking protein with Vitargo is an optimal recovery strategy.*
