I have read and asked Lyle Mcdonald (author of ketogenic diet) about fructose. He says that the average male liver can use about 50g a day. After that it sees a surplus and dumps the sugar back into the blood stream. If it cannot use it for immediate energy then it converts it to fat. Lomaximo ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I thought the maltodextrin was just for flavor or mixability..am I wrong? If thats the case who cares, just drink it. Slopain ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Flour is just as bad, if not worse than maltodextrin. Actually, they are both a shitty choice of carbs. They are both highly processed and a very fast burning carb. They may be low on the Glycemic Index, but that's why it's not a very reliable way of telling if a food is good for bodybuilding purposes. If you want a good, slow burning carbohydrate add some oatmeal to your protein shakes. ------------------ (formerly known as ajc1977) Visit my website at http://profiles.elitefitness.com ![]() ![]() ![]() |
