Description

Professional Supplement's Pure Vitargo is a newly developed and patented sugar-free high molecular weight carbohydrate from Sweden. Vitargo has been clinically studied at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. When taken post-workout, Pure Vitargo has been shown to be 70% more efficient in restoring muscle glycogen (stored energy) than dextrose and maltodextrin (the main carbs in many sports drinks).

Vitargo is a high molecular weight, low osmolality, long chain complex carbohydrate made from Swedish waxy maize starch. It has a molecular weight (MW) of about 500,000 to 700,000, compared to about 180 MW for dextrose and about 1,000 MW for maltodextrin. Due to its higher molecular weight, Vitargo passes through the stomach faster than dextrose or maltodextrin. It acts like a pump in the stomach, pulling nutrients and water along with it into the bloodstream. Vitargo helps preserve muscle glycogen (stored energy) levels, decrease muscle fatigue and extend endurance and performance.

In a study published in the European Journal of Applied Physiology, Swedish researchers gave 13 athletes either a 500,000 MW C-drink (like Vitargo) or a 500 MW G-drink after glycogen depleting exercise. Blood glucose and insulin levels were taken. Researchers found that glycogen synthesis was significantly higher for the C-drink (Vitargo) group, compared to the G-drink group.

Is it for you?

If you want a scientifically proven sugar-free sports enhancement drink for carb loading and to restore muscle glycogen levels, Pure Vitargo is for you.

However, people with pre-existing medical conditions or taking medication should not supplement with Pure Vitargo without consulting a physician.

Dosage and Directions

Mix 2 scoops (one serving) with 20 ounces of water. Shake well or blend for 30 to 45 seconds.

Post workout:
Drink immediately after workouts to replenish glycogen levels and enhance recovery.

Pre workout:
Drink 15 minutes before physical activity. You may also drink during workout for sustained energy and endurance.

You can combine your favorite nutrients (such as creatine, glutamine, taurine, BCAA or arginine) along with Pure Vitargo to super-shuttle them into your blood stream and muscle tissue.

Pure Vitargo can also be taken any time during the day as long as it is not consumed on a full stomach or in conjunction with a meal. This would delay the passage of Pure Vitargo nutrients and water from the stomach into the bloodstream.
