Review: Good stuff - I'm getting really fat using this stuff but my strength is through the roof and I haven't even started my igf-1/ test/var/halo/cialis stack yet.
Review: This stuff works great. - Great price and works great. I have about a 30gr scoop from an old tailwind bag. For all rides, I eat (1) 25gr bar or gel per hour- makes it easy. For rides under 3 hours, I mix 2 scoops of this, 1 scoop of table sugar, 3/8 teaspoon boulder salt. Sometimes I add caffeine and squeeze half a lemon. This is about 60 gr carbs per hour. For longer rides, I go with 3 scoops of this, 1.75 scoops of table sugar, same amount of salt, etc. Never bonk, never cramp. No excuse not to use every ride as it's cheap, quick, and easy to make.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does this taste?**
A: It taste pasty.  Not much of a flavor.  It doesn't mix well.  You can not mix it with just a spoon in a cup.  You need a mixer, and add something for flavor, like a protein drink.

**Q: Is this the same thing as dextrose?**
A: CJ, no it's not. Dextrose is a sugar made by the body. When supplementing dextrose you want to it after intense long cardio, or during a long cardio session, biking hiking running ect. Carbo gain is 100% maltodextrine, a complex carbo hydrate! This is what your body will burn and use first during any sort of workout! I personally supplement carbo gain in a protein shake, post work out, and mix it with my BCAAs during my workout, to sip on! Hope this info helped, feel free to contact me about any other questions!

**Q: Is it gluten free?**
A: Yes, I'll add a picture of the label.

**Q: Is this imported from China like the Dextrose is?**
A: Yes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good stuff
*by J***. on January 9, 2026*

I'm getting really fat using this stuff but my strength is through the roof and I haven't even started my igf-1/ test/var/halo/cialis stack yet.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This stuff works great.
*by B***R on December 4, 2024*

Great price and works great. I have about a 30gr scoop from an old tailwind bag. For all rides, I eat (1) 25gr bar or gel per hour- makes it easy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable Bulk Fuel — My Go-To Maltodextrin for Homemade Cycling Mixes
*by J***N on July 17, 2025*

I’ve already purchased two big tubs of this maltodextrin and am subscribed for six‑month deliveries—it’s that integral to my fueling routine. As a cyclist who often rides 4–6 hours or finishes brutal Zwift sessions, I mix this maltodextrin 1:1 with fructose to power every ride. What I love most is how well it performs. Dissolves instantly into water, no clumps—just a smooth, easily sippable carb drink. That aligns with maltodextrin’s reputation as a quick, easy-to-digest glucose polymer—perfect for long efforts where steady energy matters ￼. The 5-pound tub looks huge, but with my regular rides, it lasts me months. It’s a bulk buy that makes sense—saving money compared to gels and pre-made endurance drinks. Most importantly? It works flawlessly on my stomach. No heaviness, no cramps—just clean, sustained fuel. I combine it with fructose to hit that optimal glucose-fructose uptake ratio, and I never experience GI issues even under pressure (). Only minor gripe: the tub lacks a built-in scoop. I use a kitchen scale to measure servings, which isn’t a deal-breaker but could be more convenient. Bottom line: If you DIY your ride fuel, this maltodextrin is a solid, no-fuss foundation. Clean, consistent energy, easy digestion, and excellent value. That’s why I keep it on auto‑delivery—and why I’ll keep using it for every long ride.
