I used to get mine from Davis trading. Their warehouse is out Wigram way. Although some supermarkets have it, I know most New World Rangiora you can get it for like almost the same price per kg and just get however much you want.

Bin Inn has dextrose. 32c per 100 grams. Not sure if same stuff

Dunno about the monohydrate part, but any Brewery store would stock shiteloads of the stuff. I buy 5 kg's for $14 from the local brewery supply shop in albany.

50 grams is a grap load per serve makes the protein shake taste like sugar....!

I go through 150 grams per gym session. Makes natural protein taste not natural.

Dextrose Post workout is Broscience!

Just eat a normal meal rather than slamming massive qualities of sugar. I'm sure sugar spikes cortisone too......

I think this would always be argued from both sides. Science has proven though that a spike in insulin aids in nutrient update and muscle repair, and that it places the body in an optimal anabolic state.

So yea, might be bro-science for some, but it might work for others.

Yeah but fast digesting protein like WPI supposely cause a insulin spike also.

I think Muscle Tech started this "science" with their Celltech. Any story to sell you 90% sugar and a little bit of creatine in a shiny container for an outrageous price!

I guess it is an individual thing as you say, but I use to follow this way of nutrition and have stopped the last 7-8 months with no difference. Toast and scrammed eggs seem to be sufficient.

Protein synthesis is elevated for up to 36 hours after a workout. Timing isn't that important and over exaggerated. See this link http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8563679

I hear yes.

For me it's not really about timing, but just to get a spike in insulin.

I just like to get my point across.
