NOW Sports Nutrition, Carbo Gain Powder (Maltodextrin), Rapid Absorption, Energy Production, 12-Pound

I subsist on a liquid diet (search "soylent" on the web - seriously) and this is my primary source of carbohydrates. I like that I can measure precisely how many calories I will consume from carbohydrates. While not the most nutritious source of energy, it does not need to be -- it is pure energy, derived from corn. Essentially, this is pre-digested raw energy. I could see this being really useful before a really hard workout to help kick-start one's metabolism and provide a little extra energy (although I would not use this if your goal is to burn fat and lose weight). My only gripes are honestly unavoidable. The product is very dusty. It gets everywhere -- good luck resealing the bag. I put this in multiple 3 gallon containers and scoop it out with a measuring cup. Even scooping it out causes a cloud of carbs in my kitchen. Not much can be done about that, it is what I get for using powder that is one step above what my cells use for energy. It is also a bit sticky, similar to powdered sugar. Again, I really cannot blame the manufacturer for that, it would be like buying a dog and complaining that it barks.

I have been neglecting carbs for a good while, mostly because I’m single and I cook for myself and there’s plenty of times I don’t want to cook anything. It’s had a negative impact on my health and I have lost energy and more. 60grams of carbs mixes really well with powdered protein for a shake. This powder will mix well using a shaker cup. There’s zero taste as well. Don’t neglect carbs. You’ll burn out. Even Stallone said that he was having energy problems while filming “Rambo 3” because he neglected carbs.

I'm a competitive cyclist who rides 8+ hours a week. Using traditional drink mixes from the big brands can rival car payments if you're using them as directed on each ride. Instead, I turned to make my own. I mix this with an equal weight of fructose powder and store in an air tight container. Each bottle I'll mix that sugar mix with about a half teaspoon of salt along with a bunch of lemon juice to taste. It's a high carb drink mix for essentially nothing compared to the big brands. The powder itself is very finely ground which makes the initial mix process a bit messy but oh well. Sometimes at very high concentrations, the stuff is a little challenge to dissolve but I can't blame the company for controlling the solubiliy limits of water.
