Waxy Maize Starch

Picture of Waxy Maize Starch

Waxy Maize Starch (WMS) is a complex, long-chain, super-high molecular weight, sugar and lactose free carbohydrate.

Many athletes feel WMS restores glycogen levels faster than dextrose, thus super-hydrating the muscle cells in record time. Taken immediately post workout as an insulin-boosting carbohydrate source, it is recommended to be taken along with a fast acting whey isolate or whey hydrolysate and other eugenic aids, such as creatine, glutamine and leucine.

In more detail

WMS has a much higher molecular weight than dextrose and maltodextrin so therefore passes through the stomach much faster, thus eliminating the risk of stomach discomfort; so there is no stomach cramping and no bloated feeling. Since WMS is absorbed so rapidly it can easily be consumed directly before or even during workouts without upsetting your stomach!

WMS acts like a pump, pulling the nutrients along with water into the muscle and at the correct speed and osmolality for your body to fully utilise.

WMS is soluble in water, mixes best with a shaker but can also be shaken and consumed immediately. It has a neutral taste and is an excellent addition to a formula or consumed on its own.

Our Waxy Maize Starch has a high percentage of Amylopectin (95-99%) and a low percentage of Amylose (1-5%). Amylopectin molecules are larger, heavier and easier for the stomach to digest. Therefore, foods that have little Amylose and lots of Amylopectin will be more rapidly digested and absorbed.
