Okay guys,
As of late I have heard nothing but controversy on this particular subject. I use the product at a lower dose than most of you probably use it. Post WO I use 25g or so along with my shake. The real reason I wanted to post this, is so I can get some opinions on whether or not you think it is beneficial. If you don't think it is beneficial, then what do you think is a good alternative.
Again, I have turned to the Wiki for answers. It basically explains what WMS is supposed to do. Below is the description I pulled from the Wiki. Feel free to make any comments you see fit. Maybe a couple knowledgeable individuals will show up and have a decent debate. Below is the description. Discuss.
Food products
Modified waxy maize starches serve essential functions in foods, including the improvement of uniformity, stability, and texture in various food products. The clarity and stability of amylopectin starch make it especially suitable for thickening fruit pies. It improves smoothness and creaminess of canned food and dairy products as well as freeze-thaw stability of frozen foods. It gives a more desirable texture and appearance to dry foods and mixes [24]. Waxy maize starch is also the preferred starting material for the production of maltodextrins because of improved water solubility after drying and greater solution stability and clarity [59]. As of recent, the dietary supplement industry has seen an increase in the usage of Swedish Waxy Maize Starch. It does have a moderate Glycemic index[citation needed], however, it is its unique osmolity that allows it to pass through the digestive system relatively quickly and help pull other nutrients with it into the bloodstream[citation needed]. It's purported effect is assumed to be a greater insulin release and having a higher amount of desired materials reach the blood stream in a smaller time frame[citation needed].
