I tried Google and Wikipedia for the Italian term and possible English equivalents before posting. Thanks to all for your help.

SJLD asked what translations you considered because KudoZ is meant as a last resort, not as a substitute for doing your own research.

it's just a type of carbohydrate reccomended in a sports diet! The whole sentence is "caratterizzato dalla somministrazione di carboidrati sequenziali a prevalente contenuto di maltodestrine".

I'm glad you said that, SJLD - that's one of the most minimalist and least helpful questions I've ever seen.

SJLD Oct 17, 2011:

any context? might get more takers...

And what are your thoughts? What translations have you considered/researched?
