Aumento de carbohidratos – 1000 g

Yes, for experienced athletes. Carbo Boost is a pure source of complex carbohydrates (maltodextrin, dextrose, or instant oats) with no added protein or fat. Combined with a separate whey protein, it allows for independently dosing carbohydrates and protein — impossible with a fixed-ratio all-in-one gainer. Example: post-workout 60g of Carbo Boost (50g of carbs) + 30g of whey (25g of protein) = a complete and personalized recovery shake. The cost per gram of carbohydrates is significantly lower than all-in-one gainers, making it a premium economical option.

Yes. Pre-competition carb loading involves increasing carbohydrate intake to 8-12 g/kg/day for 2-3 days before the event to saturate muscle and liver glycogen stores. Carbo Boost facilitates this high intake without forcing uncomfortable solid food volumes. Carbo Boost's maltodextrin has a high GI — ideal for carb loading and post-effort recovery. For the race itself, pair it with energy gels or Vitargo for efforts over 90 minutes. Carbo Boost also allows for preparing homemade fueling drinks at a reduced cost vs. commercial isotonic solutions.

Dosage depends on the goal. Post-workout (recovery): 0.5-1g of carbs/kg within 30-60 minutes after exercise. An 80kg athlete = 40-80g of Carbo Boost (35-70g of carbs) paired with 25-35g of whey. Pre-workout (1-1.5 hours before): 30-50g of Carbo Boost to prevent glycogen depletion during long sessions. Pre-competition carb loading (48-72 hours before): 2-3 servings of 60g spread throughout the day in addition to carb-rich meals. Intra-workout (effort >90 min): 30-60g/hour diluted in 500ml of water.

The risk depends on the timing and composition of Carbo Boost. If the formula is based on pure maltodextrin (high GI ~110), taking it 30 minutes before a fasted session can cause an insulin spike followed by mild reactive hypoglycemia in sensitive individuals. Solution: take Carbo Boost 60-90 minutes before the session (not 15-30 minutes), with a light meal including protein and fiber that slow the glycemic response. For intra-workout intake (during the session), this risk disappears since muscles consume the glucose immediately.

This depends on the formula's carbohydrate source. Maltodextrin from corn, rice, or potato is naturally gluten-free. If Carbo Boost contains uncertified instant oats, a risk of cross-contamination with gluten exists. Systematically check the ingredient list and the 'gluten-free' mention on the label for this specific batch. People with celiac disease must ensure gluten-free certification (<20 ppm) before use.

Yes, this is actually the most scientifically recommended post-workout combination. Carbo Boost + whey + creatine in a single shaker: the carbohydrates trigger an insulin response that simultaneously activates CreaT1 transporters (creatine transport into muscles) and facilitates the entry of whey amino acids into muscle fibers. Green et al. (Am J Physiol, 1996) showed that carbohydrates increase creatine retention by 60%. This triple combination covers glycogen replenishment, protein synthesis, and creatine saturation in a single convenient serving.
