Engineered for Runners, Cyclists and Athletes of all types...
By John A. Bertels
As a distance runner, I have been a dedicated user of Cytomax since 1994. It's smooth, tastes great and delivers an even dose of the right blend of carbohydrates to help sustain energy levels. More importantly, it doesn't leave me with a "sugar crash" the way that some other popular name brands do.

The effect of Cytomax and reduction of perceived exertion/lactic acid buildup is evident anytime; however, it is most pronounced during summertime, when the body is working harder during longer training sessions. I would recommend following the product's directions to consume this before, during and after the training periods to obtain maximum effect.

Before the advent of the Internet and E-Commerce, I had tried others that were popular and commercially available, when I could not obtain Cytomax. Even recently, I obtained a sample of the EAS equivalent, which was highly touted. The bottom line is that all else pales in comparison to this product.

Bring Back the Old Formula
By Renevatio
New Coke?...seems the Cytosport folks are going to have to learn this lesson the hard way. I'll not purchase Cytomax again until they return to the old formula or at least improve the "new" one as it currently tastes terrible.

Cytomax, a runners best friend.
By Mark E. Mcnutt
I have been using Cytomax regularly for about six years now. I cannot preach the benefits of this product enough. It really does beat the burn. The percieved exertion levels, the lowering of lactic acid levels in muscle and the subsequent enhanced recovery are all truly part of the package. I frequently use it before bed when I know I will only have a limited time to sleep (i.e. 3-5 hrs) and have found that I will have deep restful sleep and awake feeling invigorated. It is also a handy hangover drink according to some of my past roomates. I have been encouraging other fellow runners, triathletes, cyclist, backpackers, mountaineers, etc to try the product and have recieved similiar feedback. Many nice climbing/outdoor gear shops have the individual packets available if you wanted to demo the product.
