CytoMax: How Much How Often?

Based on other people's observations that it reduces cramping, I got a jar of
the stuff.

Label doesn't, however, recommend a dilution strength... only "One serving = One
Scoop".

I'm guessing that dilution is to taste and the operative factor is what fraction
of a scoop per hour one ingests.

Can anybody offer a starting point?

I don't have a can in front of me but doesn't it say somewhere, maybe
in the nutrition table, that one serving is 16 oz? Something on the
label led me to always put 1.5 scoops per water bottle.

Pete: I use two scoops in a 26oz bottle. The Cytomax label says to use one
to one-and-a-half scoops per 16 ounces.

Per Mike Jacoubowsky:

I suppose the other factor is that I don't want to OD on the stuff.... -)

I'm going to guess that you only do a single 26 oz bottle per ride and the rest
is water, right?

Basically, they gave you one. One level scoop per 16oz. bottle. Add more
or less according to taste and or personal needs.

I find that I prefer a slightly more diluted mix in the summer heat than
on cooler days, for example.

Yes, its one scoop to 16 oz. Also, note the electrolytes are only K and Na
and in the wrong proportions. If you live in a hot climate, like Texas,
you'll find it doesn't work for cramping and you'll get bloating, too, as it
has too much simple surgar that the stomach can't process.

Look into Shaklee's Performance, it did well for the Shaklee team earning
over 12 world medals, 500 US wins, etc.

I used to do that, but I now run on 100% Cytomax. If I want something
different and I'm stopping by a store, I've found that grape juice seems to
be OK, but I now try to avoid straight water. A Mtn Dew on a very hot, very
nasty ride seems to work wonders, but I think it's almost entirely the
psychological effect. Sometimes that's all you want when it's 102 degrees
and you've just climbed a nasty stretch of road.

It might be the cold and the caffeine.

IIRC, Mountain Dew has some of the highest sugar and caffeine levels of
any soda.

Do they still make Jolt?

Little Debbies fudge brownies, and oatmeal creme pies are good, too.

Those have hydrogenated oil in them -- very not good.
