Well actually, after workout you need a fast digesting carb(SIMPLE SUGAR) that will stimulate insulin responses. The best, and this issue has been discuss in numerous bodybuilding/weightlifting,and dietary mags/journals, is dextrose/maltodextrine b/c they stimulate a higher,quicker insulin response. There is also a debate on whether fruits can be used. IMO fruits that are made up of dex/maltodextrine(and i cant name any,which is why i dont use them in PWO, would be fine. I do know some fruits that are made up of fructose and sucrose. These sugars trigger little if any insulin responses, which wouldnt benefit you at all. It is also my opinion, as well as many professional bb'ers, weight lifters, and dieticians, that eating complex carbs post workout isnt at all beneficial,
