Other Label Statements

Brand IP Statement(s) re: (c), (TM), (SM)

NOW(R) Waxy Maize is a complex starch derived from non-GMO corn that has naturally occurring amylopectin, a high molecular weight, highly branched polysaccharide.

General Statements: All Other Content

Amylopectin is slowly absorbed by the body, and then easily assimilated by muscle tissue, where it is converted into glycogen. Glycogen can then provide a sustained source of glucose for energy. Unlike maltodextrin or dextrose, Waxy Maize supports glycogen resynthesis well after you are finished working out and sustains energy levels throughout the day.
