Does anyone know what’s up with the CarboPro supply? Seems like it’s been out of stock from the usual sources, Amazon, TheFeed, and even directly from CarboPro, for over a month. The CarboPro folks are silent about this on their site. Their social media accounts have been silent for about a year.
If it were just a pandemic supply-chain disruption, I would understand, but presumably then they’d post this explanation on their site and through their social media channels. Instead, they’re silent. Its weird.
Does anyone who has relied on CarboPro for training/race nutrition in the past have recommendations for a suitable substitute?
I really like the Hammer Nutrition lineup of products, and have been using them since 1989. Heed is a great base, and then you can add endurolytes in either powder or pill form to your required dosage of electrolytes. They use all natural ingredients with no fillers or colors.

Not sure if they ship to the US, but I buy stuff from triboutique.ca pretty reguarly.

Buy in bulk to save for sure. Or sugar. Or like 4:1 sugar to malto. Or any other ratio of sugar to malto will be better than straight malto.
**TLDR: Reconsider enriching retailers of cheap carbs with good marketing. ** They are, by and large, taking advantage of your lack of knowledge about how much food grade carbs cost to manufacture, compared to protein, which actually is expensive to manufacture and has much thinner profit margins.
In Canada I get all my carbs some CanadianProtein. I don’t know why you’d pay for anything more expensive. Only thing I have trouble finding here is Fructose at a decent price.

If you don’t want 50lbs to store, get 8lbs for ~$20 for carbo gain from GNC which is the cheapest I’ve been able to find for something that doesn’t take up the whole pantry. It’s all the same stuff.

Yes, chemically the same, but there’s differences.
I have had malto from different vendors and they differed in how easy they dissolved in water.
Currently using up a tub of CarboGain and it turns into goopy Elmers glue with water if you don’t stir it in slowly or use a blender.
I suspect a coarser consistency (Carboplex?) may dissolve easier, as GarboGain is a really fine powder.
