Fast-digesting carbohydrate used for energy and calories
We rank Maltodextrin by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.
Maltodextrin is a fast-digesting carbohydrate, which is a type of sugar that the body breaks down quickly. It is used primarily to provide a rapid source of energy and to increase the total calorie count of a supplement.
It is used in supplements for the following reasons:
To make this ingredient commercially, manufacturers start with starch, which is usually taken from corn, rice, or potato. This starch is treated with enzymes, which are natural proteins that speed up chemical reactions, to break the long starch chains into shorter sugar chains. The resulting liquid is then dried into a fine white powder.
This ingredient is considered mid-range in price. This is because while the raw starch used to make it is very cheap and plentiful, the industrial process of using enzymes and drying the product adds a layer of manufacturing cost.
