Core Nutritionals Post Post-Workout Recovery Matrix with Cyclic Dextrin®, Velositol®, for Optimum Protein Absorption, Glycogen Replenishment, Muscle Recovery 20 Servings (Hot Cocoa)
- The scientific literature is relatively clear that fast–digesting carbohydrates such as dextrose and Cluster Dextrin create optimal conditions for the post-workout synthesis of both skeletal muscle protein and muscle glycogen. Not only have both of Core POST’s carbohydrates sources demonstrated higher rates of post-exercise glycogenesis (glycogen resynthesis) as compared to other carbohydrate sources, they have also been shown to optimize insulin response and blunt cortisol release..
- Dextrose functions at such a higher capacity because of molecular structure, given that it is otherwise known as pure glucose – your body’s preferred energy substrate and the necessary component for the synthesis and resynthesis of glycogen. Bypassing the lengthy and metabolically costly process of digestion and breakdown, dextrose can be absorbed directly through the gut into the bloodstream and can cause an insulin response faster than any other carb..
- Velositol, a patented complex of amylopectin/chromium, is a fascinating compound – with emerging clinical data to suggest that it is effective in significantly enhancing skeletal muscle protein synthesis when combined with wh....
