thought you would enjoy this. An ultra-marithoner I know gave me his recipe for a clean energy drink.
5 ½ Cups Maltodextrin
1/2 Cup Sugar (sometimes I use Agave Syrup for less Hypo-glycemic effect)
1 ½ Teaspoon Salt
1 ½ Teaspoon Lite Salt
1 package unsweetened Koolaid.
Adjust Salt and Lite Salt to individual needs. Makes about 12 24 oz. bottles with 200 Calories. 25 Lbs. of Maltodextrin lasts me about a year.
Cost is about $0.50 per $24oz of solution
As an after workput replacement I add some Whey protein Isolate for anabolism.
Timing of nutritional supplementation get kinda technical but if your interested:
