Full details

Troubleshooting

Powder is clumping during mixing

Add water to the shaker bottle before adding the powder, or use a shaker ball to help break up clumps.

Drink tastes too thin or watered down

Reduce the water volume by 50-100ml next time, while ensuring the powder is fully dissolved.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Rapid and efficient energy absorption
  • Zero sugar and fat content for clean fueling
  • Highly soluble and easy to digest during training
  • Excellent for stacking with BCAA or EAA powders

Cons

  • Requires specific water ratios for optimal texture
  • Flavor profile may be too subtle for those preferring intense sweetness
  • Large 1.2kg tub requires significant storage space

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare, add one level scoop (25g) to 500ml of cold water in a shaker bottle. Shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds to ensure the powder has fully dissolved.

  • Compatibility: Carb X is designed to be compatible with most sports nutrition powders, including amino acids and electrolytes. Do not mix with carbonated beverages, as this can affect the solubility of the dextrin.
  • Storage: Keep the tub tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Exposure to moisture can cause the powder to clump over time, so ensure the scoop is dry before returning it to the container.
