You really need to be carefull how much and when you take it. You can get fat off this stuff as its just pure carbs. I like Karbolyn and the original Vitargo was the shit, Vitargo is still good just not the same.

The Pure Karbolyn looks good, but it's not exactly inexpensive. At one site online it's almost $50 for 40 servings or about $1.25 per serving.

The CytoCarb II seems to be more cost-effective (though it has a little more carbs than the Karbolyn and it has sodium): $9.25 for 16 servings or about 58 cents per serving.

Is the Pure Karbolyn somehow more effective than the CytoCarb II?

If I were to go with the Pure Karbolyn I'd probably use only one scoop postworkout.

BTW, the Vitargo S2 is the most expensive of the three: $2.80 per serving is the lowest price per serving right now. (For some reason, there's no discount, except on the single-serving packet.)

Yeah I get most of my stuff from a local guy who gives me a good discount. I am older and for my body I will spend the extra money to give myself that advantage or anyadvantage for that matter. I have stopped the wazy maize for now as I am trying to lean out. Oh and being older I have more coin to spend/waste on my body...
GLTY and great questions and research!

This stuff is overhyped...

Waxy maize is nothing more than corn starch from a specific species of corn. Not a lot to it, it's all the same - a brand is a brand is a brand. Now here is the thing that DOES matter with Waxy Maize. The whole point is the molecule size allows it to bypass the stomach, allowing it to be absorbed QUICKER than anything else, hence the immidiate effect of replenishing glycogen and raising insulin. THIS MEANS TAKE IT ALONE IMMIDIATELY AFTER YOUR WORKOUT. REPEAT TAKE IT ALONE, NOT WITH PROTEIN, NOT WITH ANYTHING ELSE, OR IT DEFEATS THE PURPOSE. After about 15 minutes, then take your protein and creatine. Otherwise there is truly no use for waxy maize. The end.

Anyone else agree with that? Curious...

This product interests me as well. I have used it in the past on a bulk and drank it during my workout. I think the product was by BSN, Yah, Volumaize. I used if for a few months and gaines some weight while I was on it so I dropped it when I started to cut. The thing is, I drank this during my workout and then a short time after training I drank my protein drink. I am wondering if I shoud have waited a bit before having teh drink. I am gunna take another run at it soon, but being older, I try to watch certain things that might raise my bad Cholosterol..Oh well, take care..BTW, if you had to pick just one of these products which one would you pick..

I'd like to know which one most would pick as well. Or is it just another one of the many overrated bodybuilding supps that has come and will eventually go, like lartinos implies? I think most of us know that hype with no substance isn't anything new in the world of bodybuilding supplements. Products are hyped for, like, a year before the next supplement fad comes in with its own hype saying that it's better than the last one. In this respect the supplement industry is almost as bad as the fashion industry. So, is waxymaize mostly hype or, as they say, "the real deal"?
