Dextrose and Maltodextrine
 
Somebody told me there's a supplement of some sort that has this stuff both together, so you don't have to go out and get/mix both..

He gave me the name and a link, but I forgot it..

Anyone know what it is?

waxy maize starch...you can get it at trueprotein, or bulknutrition...and...a variety of other places, but that's where i get mine.

Here is a Canadian site for you. Usually it only takes about 2 days to get stuff instead of 2 weeks. Free shipping too.

nice, good call talo.

dougz 09-05-2008 08:12 PM

Ok, thanks!

PS Do you HAVE to add equal portions of both to your pre/post WO shakes, or can you just add one or the other?

What's the reasoning to adding both?

TALO 09-05-2008 08:28 PM

If you buy them together , then you get them together in one scoop. Amounts of one or another ..... Not sure. it says 50g per scoop.

Wait, so I don't need to order the dextrose, then, as per this article?

So right now there are two plus's of taking in maltodextrin and dextrose (take them in a 50/50 split meaning if you need 50 grams of carbs then 25 maltodextrin and 25 dextrose).
Is the author off base?

TALO 09-05-2008 09:01 PM

That stuff has Maltodextrin and dextrose in it ( along with other stuff ). I think it should be good enough. It's all I take.

That 10lb jug has been in my house for over 6 months and it's not even half empty.

Half the time I don't use any of that. Fruit juice or fruit is what I like.

dougz 09-05-2008 09:04 PM

Shoot, already ordered some dextose along with it..

I'll see if they'll let me change the order.. :)

What would be a good multivitamin to substitute for the dextrose??

That I know you, there isn't one. But, you may be able to get it in pill form.

EricT 09-06-2008 10:49 AM

That stuff that Talo told you will be good.

Pity...wms is NOT malto and dex!

haha...i know. did i say that somewhere...i'll have to reread :)

it was from another thread...me and rosscopcoltrane86 were telling him to get wms instead of dex/malto....since it's just one thing....not two...

EricT 09-06-2008 10:55 AM

NO, you didn't actually say it :), haha, you just posted it after a question about malto and dex together. I know you didn't mean too, lol.

I meant substitute on the order.. :)

I think I'm going to skip both and go for the waxy maize..

Thoughts?

Is this stuff ok?

TALO 09-06-2008 04:01 PM

Sure it's ok . but it only has 36g , so you might want to take two scoops. That means it will only last you for 25 workouts.

Where that 10lb jug of Malto/dextrine will last you alot longer for about $5 more.

dougz 09-06-2008 04:03 PM

Hmmmmmm....
