DEXTROSE 10lb. for $6.50

[lonewulf]

Hey guys i know this doesnt have to do with anabolics, but most of us on here use dextrose post workout, and we all have been pissed at supplementdirect and proteinfactory for a while. Here is an online candy store that sells 10lbs.of dextrose sugar(pure dextrose?) for $6.50. That is an unreal price any of you guys know if it is the same stuff that should be used post workout. I have not ordered yet waiting on some responses before i shell out some cash.

Dextrose

I don't get you guys. You can buy this shit at your local BULK BARN. it is corn sugar. pure dextrose. 5lbs for $3. why you would order online is beyond me. you have to pay shipping and everything. just go get it at your local bulk store.

bulk barn? is that like a feed store?

 

[lonewulf]

Theres not a bulk barn or a beer brewing store near me. I checked the yellow pages. Also, this is a great price, i heard $1-$2 a lb. was good, this is less than a buck a lb. Not bad....but is it quality? That i dont know.-WULF

Dextrose is almost idential to sucrose except that sucrose is a bit sweeter (and tastes better in milk) than dextrose so you would need a little less of it. They're both essentially high glycemic sugars so bother with dextrose? I think bodybuilders have been conditioned to think that a teaspoon of sucrose is deadly, yet the supplement manufacturers hype the "value" of dextrose. (because it's cheaper) Same shit.

That really makes perfect sense.

Im doin slin now, and the protien I have is so nasty I have to add Hershy's Chocolate Milk Mix (about 48g of it) to make the sake taste better. I dont bother with the dextrose, all that sugar in the Choco milk mix does the trick, and tastes great.

I really wondered why sucrose was such a "no no" and why dex was looked upon in such high regard.

The site is there delinquent, I usually use a kool-aid type drink from wal-mart, its cheap and i just make sure i get around 50 g of sugar or a little over out of it. But research i have been doing lately has told me fructose better restores liver glycogen, and dextrose restores muscle glycogen better. I know many bros on here use it because i did a search and pulled up a lot of info. I found this site and thought, thats a good deal, because everyone was saying a buck a lb. was good. I was just wondering if this was a good quality product, but i guess theres not too many candy makers on elite! Willie Wonka isnt a big juicer...lol....anyway anymore opinions on post workout supplementation would be great.-WULF
