Glycomaize

Stay fully-fuelled during your workout or training with Glycomaize from Optimum Nutrition – a combination of waxy maize starch and trehalose (a type of glucose). Popular with strength-based athletes looking to increase their calorie intake, Glycomaize also supports your recovery post-exercise and you can combine with protein as part of a weight gainer. Packed with 87g of carbohydrate per 100g, Glycomaize dissolves easily in water and is unflavoured – the perfect carbohydrate source to use as best fits your training goals!

Waxy Maize Starch is high in amylopectin and has a very low osmolality, meaning it’s a fast-acting carbohydrate. Make sure your carbohydrate intake is 4g of carbohydrate per kg of your body weight during the four to six hours after exercise to benefit from the recovery of normal muscle function.
