Product Description : Cytomax Lite LGI is
Low-Glycemic Indexed to help regulate blood glucose and reduce insulin spiking to keep
strength at peak levels longer so you can compete and train harder. In 1988, Cytomax
re-defined modern energy drinks for athletes by combining amylopectin starches for
sustained complex carbohydrate energy with our patented Alpha-L-Polylactate to help
replenish fluid, electrolytes and stimulate the body's own glucose production while
simultaneously buffering the effects of acids produced during exercise. Cytomax is used
by elite athletes world wide, who have set world records, and won Olympic Gold
Metals. From Cy Young award winners to Tour de France victors, Cytomax has been their
choice. Now Cytomax Lite LGI is available for anyone - from weekend warriors to elite
athletes to anyone interested in managing their energy requirements.
The Problem - Some of our favorite and otherwise healthy carbohydrate rich foods
such as potatoes, carrots, whole wheat bread, white rice, green peas, bananas and
cornflakes, not to mention most energy bars and sports drinks, contain various
carbohydrate structures that convert rapidly to glucose. By calculation, a baked potato
elevates blood glucose levels almost four (4) times higher than a comparable amount of
Cytomax Lite LGI! This glucose is absorbed relatively quickly into the portal blood
stream resulting in a tremendous release of insulin. Too much of this insulin escapes
into systemic circulation and over time, causes a continuous fall in blood glucose
(well below normal). You feel weak and tired and you've hit the wall, bonked or gone
hypo. This is no way to train or compete. The Solution - If
you exercise strenuously (65% of maximum capacity) for a prolonged period (60 to
90 minutes or longer), Cytomax Lite LGI provides an ideal carbohydrate/lactate
blend, which insures that a steady stream of glucose is released into your blood
stream during your training or event. Best of all, these carbohydrates are released
more slowly from your onboard energy reservoir, your small intestine, also assuring
that more glucose is available towards the end of your exercise or event with liver
and muscle glycogen stores are running low. The result, you maintain blood glucose
levels in the high-normal range, while blood insulin levels remain stable. As a
fitness beverage Cytomax Lite LGI helps you eliminate bad carbs from your diet by
reducing carbohydrate/sugar cravings or without increasing insulin secretion which
promotes fat synthesis and storage. Instructions
Mix one scoop in 8 to 10 oz water. Drink 1 to 2 hrs before training of your event.
This is a good starting point. Experiment to determine the best timing for you.
Remember, regular Cytomax is ideal during and immediately after an event or training.
How Much to Use: A general recommendation for active individuals, prior to
training, is 1 gram carbohydrate for each 2.2 lbs of bodyweight (i.e., 50 grams if you
weight 110 lbs, or 75 grams if you weight 165 lbs). Store in a cool, dry place to
avoid caking. If caking occurs, simply break up with a spoon or other utensil.
