Can anyone tell me what the difference between corn starch you get that the grocery store and waxy maize starch being sold online from bodybuilding sites? Any help would be appreciated

I know that the waxy maize they put in post workouts are supposed to spike insulin to the max, increasing the the amount of calories/nutrients your muscles uptake. I haven't heard any other differences so far.

the waxy maize starch is an unabsorbed carbohydrate, that is the biggest difference corn zstarch can and will be stored as fat if over used. the waxy maize starch on the other hand can be ingested as much as desired and will simply be used as a delivery system and is secreted, not stored as fat. also the waxy maize draws the subcutaneous water into the muscle wich cornstarch also does not dooooo. thats about it :-/
