Formulated with Vitargo®, an advanced and patented Swedish barley starch derivative, SPS Vitargo CarbLoader sets the standard in performance carbohydrate supplementation. Vitargo® is a zero sugar, low osmolarity molecular carbohydrate, scientifically proven to move through the stomach 80% faster than carbohydrates such as maltodextrin and dextrose traditionally found in other sport drinks and powders. This results in faster carbohydrate digestion and absorption with clinical studies demonstrating a resultant 70% improvement in muscle glycogen (energy) replenishment over traditional carbohydrate sources. This enhanced rate of glycogen synthesis ensures optimal pre-performance “loading” of muscle glycogen as well as intra and post-workout replenishment of depleted muscle glycogen stores facilitating maximum muscle performance and recovery. It also means no bloating or that “heavy stomach” feeling common to traditional carbohydrate-based sports drinks. Because university studies have shown that Vitargo® is able to transit through the stomach almost twice as fast as ordinary carbohydrates as well as present no intestinal discomfort, many elite and pro athletes have turned to Vitargo® as their performance carbohydrate source of choice for use before, during and after training or competition. 
  80% faster transit time through the stomach means faster refueling during high intensity exercise without bloating or that “heavy stomach” feeling.
  70% faster recovery of muscle glycogen after exhaustive exercise prepares you to perform at your peak again sooner.
  Scientifically proven to boost endurance by up to 23% more than maltodextrin and dextrose, following exhaustive, glycogen-depleting exercise.
SPS is a leading science-based sports nutrition company and with our products being used by so many professional, drug tested athletes, we have the responsibility to provide safe and efficacious products!
