Cytomax Lite: Low-Calorie Options for Training and Weight Loss

This entry was posted on Friday, February 8th, 2008 at 11:02 am and is filed under Weight Loss, Cytomax, CytoSport, Products, Health and Nutrition Articles

Because of the extra demands they make on their bodies, it’s especially important for athletes, bodybuilders, and fitness enthusiasts to maintain a steady diet of complex carbohydrates. Balanced nutrition is essential during training, and knowing which foods and supplements to choose is part of the process. Cytomax Lite offers one convenient option to get the quality carbohydrates and electrolytes you need for optimal performance, without extra calories.


Complex Carbohydrates’ Role in Training


Complex carbohydrates provide a steady source of energy for even the most intensive workouts; this provides just enough fuel during training, and can help protect the cells during the recovery process. Among the main food sources for complex carbohydrates are potatoes, brown rice, and plant-based foods. These are also considered to be low-glycemic foods that can be beneficial to any diet.


Dietary Importance of Low-Glycemic Foods


What you eat at every meal affects the level of insulin released in your body, and this is determined by the amount of sugar in your blood. If you’re constantly experiencing a rise in blood sugar and glucose, the body will have difficulty going into “fat-burning” mode and using food for energy. Slow-burning carbohydrates are found in a variety of foods such as oatmeal, beans, and brown rice. However, these can be cumbersome to prepare and travel with. Cytomax Lite offers another option.


Electrolytes Play a Part


Hydration and electrolytes are necessary for cellular balance, helping you sustain muscle strength through even the most challenging workout. Electrolytes are chemicals in the body that carry a charge to nerves and muscles. Common side effects of electrolyte imbalance include cramping and muscle weakness, and electrolyte replenishment is necessary for all athletes to stay healthy and strong.


Exercising in the heat often leads to large losses of salt, which can in turn lead to an electrolyte imbalance. At this stage, the body naturally sends a signal to increase fluids. Puffiness, fluid retention, and swollen hands and ankles are some signs of an imbalance, and replenishment is necessary after every workout. Cytomax Lite contains just enough electrolytes to bring the body into balance after a demanding workout.


Cytomax Lite


A balanced meal or replacement, both before and after a workout, ensures that your body maintains steady energy throughout your training session. Cytomax Lite is made with a proprietary blend of low-glycemic starches, fructose, and maltodextrin. This means it is released into the bloodstream slowly and steadily, providing just enough energy to get you through a workout without losing strength or stamina.



Hydration and balanced electrolytes will help your muscles stay strong while reducing the chance of fatigue. Cytomax Lite also contains electrolytes that can make it much easier to recover after a workout. It also contains ingredients that help you:



  • Overcome muscle “burn” by delivering alpha L-PolyLactate to muscles. By helping manage buildup of lactic acid in the muscles, it can reduce lactic acid-based muscle pain and soreness.




  • Maintain a steady level of energy. The complex carbohydrates in Cytomax Lite can help keep blood-sugar levels steady and balanced throughout your workout.




  • Maintain a low-calorie diet. At just 80 calories per serving, Cytomax Lite offers a healthy meal option when you are on a low-calorie eating plan.




  • Absorb natural nutrients for energy. Infused with lemon bioflavonoids and amino acids, Cytomax Lite makes it easy to push your training to the next level.




  • Reduce free-radical damage. Cytomax Lite contains high levels of antioxidants and minerals that can protect cells and reduce the risk of damage.
