Did you ever wonder where the “Waxy Maize” hype came from?
The “Bandwagon effect” Def:
“As more people come to believe in something, others also ‘hop on the bandwagon’ regardless of the underlying evidence.”
Waxy maize starch simply was a created “FAD” only because supplement companies could not get their hands on the real deal, Vitargo®. The Swedes who owned the patented rights to Vitargo® were extremely selective in who they would let license out their engineered carbohydrate to. Professional Supplements was honored to have rights to Pure Vitargo® for a couple years before the Swedes gave the exclusive rights away to Energy8®.
When “Vitargo®” was gaining popularity in the U.S. the starch source that the Swedes used to manufacture their product was from waxy maize starch. Prior to using waxy maize starch, the Swedes used potato starch and now they currently use barley starch to make Vitargo®. When the supplement companies could not get their hot little hands on real Vitargo® they were forced to use the ingredient on the Vitargo® label, which (at that time) was waxy maize starch.
What these supp giants failed to realize however, was that the ingredient was not the magical factor in this engineered carbohydrate; it’s all in the processing! The rapid glycogen uptake that is desired from Vitargo® is not from the waxy maize starch ingredient, its from the patented Vitargo® processing. If unprocessed/unrefined powdery waxy maize was beneficial to athletes, Professional Supplements would have thrown it into a jug and sold it years ago. We would have saved a ton of money! Unprocessed waxy maize starch is incredibly cheap. It costs under $1.25 per pound! This unprocessed starch does nothing for rapid glycogen loading and nutrient absorption. Sorry, but it’s the truth.
If you are wondering if you have been buying cheap unprocessed starch, you can tell immediately when you open up your container. It looks just like ultra powdery cornstarch. What is sad is that there is a very good chance it is plain old unprocessed starch.
The main problem with unprocessed waxy maize starch is that it has not been accurately processed to attain rapid absorption into the blood stream. Waxy maize does “drop” through the stomach very quickly, but then it just sits there and the body has a difficult time absorbing the molecule because it has not been suitably modified for quick absorption.
If you are not “feeling it” from your waxy maize starch don’t be surprised. You are better off baking muffins with waxy maize starch than using it as a “performance” carbohydrate! These companies are making a fortune off of you and it is time you know the truth.
The true difference between any unprocessed starch and Pure Karbolyn™ is that Pure Karbolyn™ uses multi-stage enzymatic processing to reach optimal molecular size. This new patent pending processing yields a carbohydrate engineered for quick gastric emptying and rapid absorption into the blood stream. Once the starch is fully processed you can see, taste and feel the difference!
