Vitargo
Carbohydrates + Electrolytes 75 g

Vitargo® is a patented carbohydrate with an exceptionally high molecular weight and low osmolality, which sets it apart from common carbohydrates such as maltodextrin or glucose. Thanks to these properties, it leaves the stomach faster than standard carbohydrates and enables more rapid energy absorption. Clinical studies confirm that Vitargo® supports faster replenishment of muscle glycogen after physical exertion, which is crucial for athletes completing multiple training sessions per day or taking part in demanding endurance events.

Vitargo Carbohydrates + Electrolytes is designed for use before, during and after physical activity – depending on your individual need for energy and electrolyte replenishment. Before training, it serves as a rapid source of carbohydrates; during exercise, it helps maintain energy levels and hydration; after exertion, it supports rapid replenishment of muscle glycogen and minerals lost through sweating. Each serving (75 g) provides 65 g of carbohydrates and 262 kcal.

Mix the entire contents of the sachet (75 g) in 500 to 600 ml of water. For optimal dissolution, we recommend first mixing the powder with approximately 200 ml of water and shaking thoroughly, then topping up with the remaining amount of water. One sachet equals one serving. Consume the drink before, during or after physical activity according to your current need for energy, fluid and electrolyte replenishment.

One serving (75 g) contains 65 g of carbohydrates, of which 0 g are sugars, and provides 262 kcal. The product contains no fat, protein or fibre. The carbohydrates come exclusively from the patented Vitargo® starch, not from simple sugars, which contributes to more consistent energy absorption without significant blood sugar spikes.

Vitargo Carbohydrates + Electrolytes contains four key electrolytes: sodium (293 mg), potassium (79 mg), calcium (105 mg) and magnesium (41 mg) per 75 g serving. The salt content is 0.74 g per serving. These minerals help replenish what the body loses through sweating during physical performance and support proper hydration.

According to information from the manufacturer, Vitargo Carbohydrates + Electrolytes contains no declared allergens. The product is therefore suitable for individuals with lactose intolerance as well as those who avoid gluten. The formulation contains no milk derivatives, soya, eggs or nuts. We recommend checking the current packaging before use, as manufacturing conditions may vary.

Yes, Vitargo Carbohydrates + Electrolytes is suitable for both vegans and vegetarians. The formulation contains exclusively plant-based ingredients – starch, organic mineral salts, citric acid, natural citrus flavourings, sweeteners and carotenes as colourants. The product contains no animal-derived ingredients or animal by-products.

People with phenylketonuria (PKU) should exercise caution. The product contains the sweetener aspartame (E951), which is a source of phenylalanine, as stated directly on the packaging. Individuals with phenylketonuria must strictly monitor their phenylalanine intake, and should therefore consult a doctor or dietitian before consuming this product.

The main difference lies in the molecular structure and the rate of gastric emptying. Clinical studies show that Vitargo® leaves the stomach significantly faster than maltodextrin, meaning faster energy availability and a lower risk of digestive discomfort during physical activity. Vitargo® also has a lower osmolality, which places less strain on the digestive tract. Maltodextrin is a more affordable alternative, but does not have the same clinically proven rate of absorption.

Unlike standard isotonic drinks, which predominantly contain simple sugars (glucose, fructose or sucrose), Vitargo Carbohydrates + Electrolytes provides 65 g of carbohydrates from patented Vitargo® starch with no added sugars. This means it delivers a significantly higher carbohydrate content per serving (262 kcal compared to the typical 20–30 kcal in a standard isotonic drink) and is primarily intended for intense endurance exercise, where a high and rapid supply of energy is required.

Yes, Vitargo Carbohydrates + Electrolytes can easily be combined with protein supplements, BCAAs or creatine. After training, the combination of fast carbohydrates from Vitargo® with protein is particularly effective – the carbohydrates accelerate glycogen replenishment and the protein supports muscle recovery. We recommend consuming the Vitargo® drink on its own before or during exercise, and adding protein separately afterwards.

The product is primarily intended for endurance athletes – cyclists, runners, triathletes, CrossFit and HYROX athletes – but it will also be appreciated by any active individual who requires a rapid supply of energy and electrolytes. Those who benefit most are athletes completing multiple training sessions per day, competitors in long-distance events, and those who need rapid restoration of energy stores after training. It is not intended for a sedentary lifestyle or as an everyday drink.

Yes, the 75 g sachet contains exactly one serving. It is a convenient single-serve pack, ideal for training, competition or travel, where weighing out powder is not practical. One serving provides 65 g of carbohydrates and a complete electrolyte profile (Na, K, Ca, Mg), meeting the demands of intense endurance performance. For regular users, purchasing a larger pack may be more cost-effective, where available.
