What is Waxy Maize?

Waxy Maize is starch obtained from a particular type of corn whose starch consists predominantly of amylopectin. It is a concentrated source of carbohydrates suitable for people who want to increase carbohydrate intake without adding protein or fat.

Unlike protein or amino-acid products, the primary nutritional role of Waxy Maize is straightforward – providing carbohydrates and dietary energy.

For athletes and physically active people

Carbohydrates are an important dietary energy source during physical activity. Individual requirements vary considerably depending on the type, duration and intensity of exercise, body mass, total energy intake and nutritional goals.

OstroVit Waxy Maize can be used as a convenient source of carbohydrates within a sports-nutrition plan, either on its own or as part of a drink containing other nutrients.

Pharmacist's advice

The main point to understand about Waxy Maize is that it is primarily a concentrated carbohydrate source. One serving provides 44 g of carbohydrates and 177 kcal, so there is no need to automatically double the serving unless this fits the person's energy requirements and training plan.

For someone undertaking demanding training and struggling to meet their energy requirements, powdered carbohydrates can be convenient. Recreational training with lower energy expenditure does not necessarily require the same carbohydrate intake as long or very intense exercise sessions.

If you have diabetes, insulin resistance or monitor blood glucose, do not interpret the term “complex carbohydrate” as meaning that serving size is irrelevant – each serving still contains 44 g of total carbohydrates.
