Primed Nutrition Total Carbs features a unique blend of waxy maize, maltodextrin and dextrose carbohydrates that provide an excellent nutritional supplement when taken immediately post workout which will be the most beneficial factor to your muscle building success.
The problem is people take a lot of protein and skimp on carbs and so the protein goes to waste. Your protein to carb ratio should be 1:2.
Let me explain... your body FEEDS on carbs, but if you don't take in enough it will take some of the protein you ingested and turn it INTO carbs so that your body has fuel to run off of.
This process is called: Gluconeogenesis... And you want to avoid it at ALL COSTS!!!
After a workout your body is very carb thirsty and you can use maltodextrin as a "shuttle" to transport proteins to your muscles at a much rapid pace.
Dextrose rates very high on the glycemic index meaning that it enters our system extremely fast and so stimulates a high insulin response very quickly. Insulin is a very anabolic hormone as it takes not only glucose to muscle cells, but proteins, amino acids and other essential nutrients such as creatine
and glutamine etc.
Waxy maize starch is an extremely fast acting carbohydrate. Its low osmolality enables it to pass through the stomach 80% faster than dextrose and consequently restore muscle glycogen (muscle energy) 70% faster making it a much better post-workout carbohydrate source. Its fast action mechanism transport important nutrients to the muscles faster than any other carbohydrate resulting in improved growth and recovery!
