I"m not all that familiar with Dex (never used it myself). What kind of conversion is it for the 80g? (I had assumed him saying 80g meant 80g carbs, that's what I was basing things off of)

And from what I've read about using it, most people drink it either during w/o or immediately post and then a short time later have some lower GI carbs to combat the resulting blood sugar drop since Dex causes such a high spike. Does that sound right to you? Or have I been reading some hogwash? lol
