Product Description

Why take carbohydrates before, during and after physical exertion?

During physical exertion, carbohydrates and lipids are our body’s main energy substrates. The more intense the effort, the greater the proportion of carbohydrates used by our body, while that of lipids decreases.
The main sources of carbohydrates for our body are muscle and liver glycogen, and glucose circulating in the blood. However, these reserves are not eternal, and are exhausted as the effort progresses. The more intense the effort, the more quickly these decrease. Thus, the intake of exogenous carbohydrates is essential to continue to perform, especially when the sports session is longer than one hour.

The intake of exogenous carbohydrates before and/or during a session then becomes essential to delay muscle fatigue and continue to perform, which is what athletes seek at all costs. This action is due to the availability of the carbohydrates consumed which allows us to preserve our glycogen reserves.

It is also important to supply your body with nutrients, especially carbohydrates, at the end of a sports session, in order to replenish glycogen stores. Taking carbohydrates directly after exercise triggers the insulin response. The latter allows, from the glucose present in the blood, to activate the restocking of muscle glycogen via the process of glycogenesis. This reconstitution of glycogen stocks is faster when these have been preserved by the supply of carbohydrates before or during training.

To sum up, Vitargo® allows an accelerated and continuous supply of carbohydrates to the body during and after exercise guaranteeing on the one hand, an increase in endurance and muscular performance and on the other, rapid and optimal muscle recovery through accelerated and complete reconstitution of glycogen stores. All this makes it possible to optimally link successive sports sessions.

And hydration in all this?

Numerous studies have shown that a carbohydrate drink can optimize the absorption of water, but also promote its consumption by being tastier. Limiting dehydration allows you to continue to perform during your physical effort. Indeed, physical abilities are impacted from a loss of water equivalent to 2% of body weight, so it is better to prevent it!
