Carbohydrates as a fluid are not primary builders of muscle tissue. Their function in an athlete’s diet is to provide energy. This energy is only required once the base levels of proteins and fats have been consumed. Sensible use of complex carbohydrates enables an athlete to take their daily energy requirements to just above maintenance levels. This way they are able to gain muscle tissue at an optimum rate without depositing large amounts of body fat. Cerberus is one such carbohydrate, derived from wheat through a complex process which arrives at a sophisticated carbohydrate molecule.
Establish your daily carbohydrate needs by simply subtracting the energy from your fats, the new total is your energy needs. This will tell you how much carbohydrate you need in your diet.
Divide this amount of carbohydrate equally over all your meals. This is beneficial for your thyroid function.
The only time carbohydrates are specifically required for an anabolic effect is prior to a workout where they will enter the stomach and be ready, post workout, to replenish glycogen reserves.
A simple method of determining how much carbohydrate you need is a visual assessment of your body fat levels. If you are very lean, you require more. If you hold body fat you require less. It is simple to reduce body fat by early restricting carbohydrate. Carbohydrates should come from sources such as potatoes, rice, bananas, fibrous vegetables and now Cerberus.
Cerberus has one advantage, it goes into drinks and foods almost undetectably. In our sport getting enough calories down can be difficult so a practically invisible food source is beneficial.
If you need to gain tissue and you need more calories, add Cerberus to each protein drink ranging from 50 to 100 grams per drink. If your budget is tight there is no better way than to combine Cerberus with or even to get your nutritional needs down in an economic way.
Cerberus takes our triple action Maltodextrim to a new level by focusing on a wheat extract. It has an even longer chain and is more gentle on the body’s endocrine system than conventional Maltodextrins
Not all Maltodextrins are the same
