What is Evopectin and what’s it made of
Waxy Maize: waxy corn amylopectin
Amylopectin is the starch fraction with a naturally highly branched structure. In Evopectin we use amylopectin from waxy corn (Waxy Maize), which is 100% amylopectin, with flavor.
Flavored version vs unflavored
Evopectin is the flavored version of RawSeries Amylopectin 2.0. If you go for the flavored one, you’ll enjoy delicious options for every taste; but if you prefer a neutral alternative, you can choose the RawSeries product.
Tip: if you use it in protein shakes or already sweet drinks, the unflavored option usually works better, which you can always flavor yourself by adding our sports drink flavoring to your liking.
What makes amylopectin special
“Technological” structure: high molecular weight and great natural branching
Amylopectin as a carbohydrate has a high molecular weight and a naturally dense branching pattern, being the type of complex carb (except starch and modified versions like highly branched cyclic dextrin) that naturally has the most branches. Simply put: it’s a complex carb with a structure that makes it behave somewhat like a simpler carb, so it’s ideal for athletes who want the benefits of simpler carbs without having to consume sugars.
Medium glycemic index: a perfect balance
Amylopectin is a medium glycemic index option, great if you want a powdered carb source that’s not sugary and lets you play with timing around training.
- 100% flavored amylopectin (Waxy Maize).
- 0% sugars.
- Vegan friendly.
- Non-GMO.
Who is this product for
If you train and your diet “falls short”
Especially useful during volume training phases, double sessions, or sports with very high energy expenditure where you need a convenient way to add an extra carb dose.
If you want a complex carb that’s not sweet by nature
Amylopectin isn’t a simple sugar, so its natural taste isn’t sweet. With Evopectin you get sweet-flavored options, but not because of sugar content—they’re flavored without adding significant calories.
Also, since it’s derived from waxy corn starch, it fits vegan diets.
Usage ideas: how to add it to your daily routine
Before training
Add it to your pre-workout to make a higher-calorie, carb-rich version, so you start the session “with your tanks full.”
During long workouts
In long sessions, you can use it as a glucose source to prepare an isotonic drink, mixing it with water and, if needed, fructose, amino acids, and electrolytes.
After training
It’s a practical option to get significant carbs after your session, either alone or with protein, without relying on solid foods at that moment.
Waxy Maize Evopectin vs other HSN options
Unflavored amylopectin
Evopectin is the flavored version of RawSeries corn amylopectin. If you prioritize a 100% pure raw material with its natural taste, the unflavored option is your best bet; but if you value taste and experience, Evopectin is made for you.
Vs amylopectin from other sources
In our catalog, you’ll find amylopectins from different sources, including potato. If you like comparing by origin and personal feel, it’s a handy way to try different options and stick with the one that suits you best.
Frequently asked questions
Is Evopectin very sweet?
It’s not meant to be “sugary.” The base is amylopectin (not a simple sugar) and the sweetness depends on the flavor chosen and how you prepare it. Although the flavors are sweet, adding more water to the mix is an easy way to dilute the intensity and reduce sweetness.
Does it contain sugar?
No. Evopectin is sweetened with zero-calorie intense sweeteners (no sugars).
Can I mix it with creatine or protein?
Yes, it’s a very common combo for convenience: just mix it in the same shake and you’re good to go. If you use flavored Evopectin, make sure it matches your protein’s flavor (or choose unflavored protein or amylopectin).
