WHAT TO KNOW

  • Vitargo is a unique patented carbohydate molecule. Vitargo is a energy source used by elite athletes and by a variety of athletes across different sports.

    We are a science-based company, and every claim on our label is backed by published scientific research evidence. Your peak performance deserves our serious commitment to quality, purity, and integrity.

    Our products are particularly popular among endurance athletes such as long-distance runners, cyclists, triathletes, and marathoners who require sustained energy during prolonged periods of activity.

    Additionally, athletes in sports that demand high-intensity efforts over short durations, such as sprinting, crossfit, weightlifting, and team sports like basketball or soccer, may also utilize Vitargo to replenish glycogen stores and maintain energy levels during training or competition.

    We are trusted and used by athletes!

    From runners, skiers, cyclists to elite triathletes and CrossFit champions, our ambassadors trust Vitargo to fuel their bodies and support their recovery during the toughest challenges. With its fast-absorbing, muscle-replenishing power, Vitargo helps them perform at their peak, recover faster, and keep pushing forward—no matter what their sport demands.

    What we offer...

    Vitargo is a unique carbohydrate because it is specially processed to yield a high molecular weight profile that is massively different from the carbohydrates that make up sugars (e.g. glucose, fructose, sucrose) and maltodextrin found in ordinary sport, energy, and recovery drinks. Most importantly, Vitargo is proven to work in athletes—in peer-reviewed published university studies. Part of the secret of Vitargo’s technology is the molecular size of Vitargo. Scientists use molecular weight (how heavy the molecule is) to determine the size of molecules. As shown in the table, Vitargo is hundreds and thousands of times larger than maltodextrin and sucrose (dextrose).

    How does Vitargo work?

    Vitargo is a complex high molecular weight starch molecule that dwarfs sugars (e.g glucose, fructose, and sucrose) as well as maltodextrin, the carbs found in ordinary energy and recovery drinks.

    Vitargo’s larger size minimizes its osmolality, which refers to how much water it attracts around itself, or pulls into your intestines. Less water means less sense of bloating. Vitargo®’s low osmolality allows it to move through the stomach 2.3 times faster than other carbohydrates, which tend to act more like a sponge in the stomach. This helps you feel emptier compared to any other carbohydrate drink. Spending less time in the stomach allows Vitargo to be delivered faster to the intestinal tract where it is rapidly digested and absorbed. This provides a near immediate energy boost to blood and muscle, superior to other ordinary carbohydrates.

    After training or competition, Vitargo recovers glycogen stores 77% faster, allowing for an increase in performance up to 23% greater after just two hours when compared to carbohydrates found in ordinary sport and recovery drinks.

    From runners, skiers, cyclists to elite triathletes and CrossFit champions, our ambassadors trust Vitargo to fuel their bodies and support their recovery during the toughest challenges. With its fast-absorbing, muscle-replenishing power, Vitargo helps them perform at their peak, recover faster, and keep pushing forward—no matter what their sport demands.

  • Will Vitargo make me feel bloated?

    Vitargo is a unique, patented carbohydrate clinically proven to leave your stomach over 2x faster (than sugar and maltodextrin carbohydrates). So, it does not stay in your stomach long. In some cases, bloating can happen when you drink too much too soon. Try 2-3 mouthful sips every 10-15 minutes before and during activity to fuel you as you go.

    On early morning training or competition, drink Vitargo on an empty stomach or over an hour from your last solid food meal. Remember, Vitargo is food. The difference is Vitargo is absorbed in a few minutes compared to hours of digestion of solid carbs.

    Can't I just eat pasta, bread or other carbohydrate foods to get the same result?

    Yes, you can. However, if you are pre-fueling before training, you will need to eat those foods many hours prior to training to ensure that the carbs are digested and, in your bloodstream, liver and muscle cells to fuel your training. If you eat them right before training you will not have fueled your muscles, and you will most likely feel too full or heavy to train or compete well.

    When I mix my Vitargo drink, it forms a gel in the bottom of the bottle. Am I doing something wrong? 

    Vitargo is a huge carbohydrate molecule compared to ordinary carbohydrates used in sports drinks. Because of this, Vitargo is more difficult to dissolve in water. Use a whisk ball in your shaker bottle, and fill the bottle/shaker with 200-250ml of water, then add Vitargo powder and shake vigorously for 30 seconds. Add 400-600 ml of water and shake for another 10 seconds.  Always make sure to partially fill with water BEFORE adding Vitargo and not the other way around. 

    How much Vitargo do I actually need?

    Athletes have different body types, sweat rates and train or compete in different ambient conditions. In endurance events, try to replenish 25-30% of your predicted energy calories burned per hour. For example, if your energy calorie burn rate is 700 calories per hr., 30% of that is 210 calories. Then use this formula below:
    1 level scoop is 92.5 energy calories.
    210 calories divided by 92.5 = 2.27 scoops

    In this case, you can try a little less than 2 and ½ scoops per hour of Vitargo mixed in 500-750 ml of water. (follow proper mixing steps)



     

    Why should I take creatine together with Vitargo rather than creatine alone?

    Carbohydrate improves creatine absorption by causing an increase in insulin secretion which improves the storage of creatine. Creatine storage can be improved by taking Vitargo together with creatine. Ingesting Vitargo raises blood sugar levels and therefore the secretion of insulin, an endogenous hormone.  The improved uptake of creatine into the muscles is attributed to stimulation of creatine transporters mediated by insulin.

    What is the glyclemic index GI of Vitargo?

    Many people ask the glycemic Index of carbs in common. A sports drink should have a high glycemic index, giving a rapid and easily accessible energy to the bloodstream and this is the case of Vitargo. No exact value is known at the moment, but insulin and blood glucose values indicates higher GI than for maltodextrin (glucose polymer) ~137.

    SCOOP GUIDE

    1 level scoop in 500 ml water per hour for moderate 1 hour workouts.

    2++ scoops in 750 ml water per hour for hard interval training for 2 hours and over.
