VITARGO®—A Super Substrate and Insulin Spearhead




Voltagen™ is the first and only pre-workout to harness the superfast, university proven speed of Vitargo®, a multi-patented, sugar-free, starch extract. Vitargo has been compared to another sugar-free carb, maltodextrin (a “homopolysaccharide”, also known as glucose polymers), in university studies with humans. Maltodextrin is the fastest digesting and absorbing “generic” carb6,7. In one comparison study Vitargo (a 100 gram dose) was shown to produce rises in blood glucose and insulin 2x and 1.8x higher and faster, respectively, compared to a mixture of maltodextrin plus a small amount of sugars, within ten minutes after drinking8. The exceptional speed and magnitude of Vitargo’s insulin spike appears to be partly due to its ability to “empty” from the stomach into the small intestine—the key region of the gut where carb digestion and absorption happen—2.3 x faster (75 gram dose) than maltodextrin (plus a small amount of sugars—75 grams of total carbs)9. Pumping race fuel into a tank may mean little if the fuel delivery to the engine is slow or “bloated”. Before a carb source can deliver its fuel to the body it must transit through the stomach and then to the intestines. Even if you are tenaciously adhering to a low carb diet, two scoops of Voltagen pre-workout can transform your training experience without insulting your carb-deprived lifestyle.
