Not too shabby, i use this on days i don’t feel like eating prior to working out or when I’m on a time crunch from working late. I’ve trusted this “now” brand with allot of different supplements for quite some time now. It mixes pretty dang easily with water or milk also and adds just a little bit of sweetness to your drink.

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.

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.
