Brand 'X' protein vs Milk powder? Myth bust please.

[Travel Express]

Protein powders are designed for muscle repair. Muscle Tech Nitro tech gain 8.4lbs in 2weeks (could also be Nitritech)

Skim milk Powder?? well that's just milk imo. although i have heard of 1 or 2 people using it to bulk.

its amazing how so many people seem to be brainwashed by all the protein powder companies! :shock:

of course skim milk powder is just milk! but milk is a cheap and effective way of getting protein.

yeah exactly. but some people do get really good results using those brainwashing ones. the protein powder i use has nothing on it about Gain this much in this amount of time. The old saying "If it seems too good too be true it probably is."

Well I guess you got the attention you wanted so congrats.

I said that about the protein just to clarify things so he knows what he's dealing with, and if you have a look I explained why IMO whey is better.

Also what I meant about the DEXTROSE was because it is is not the only form of glucose.And NO, DEXTROSE is not glucose,It is SUGAR and once IN YOUR BODY it is CONVERTED to glucose...They don't sell glucose in wee boxes for 2 bucks!Now that's a dumb thing to say isn't it? Also Weet-Bix for post workout? :doh: Yes they are carbs but they are very slow digested, and what you don't want after a killer workout it slow diggesting foods as they will take time to digest while simple sugars will spike insulin straight away.Anyways I bet he got the picture but you just had to make those coments.Well, well done you made your day. :clap:

Dextrose is glucose, dextrose is d-glucose which is glucose. Im not even going to get into oats vs glucose post workout but it aint gonna make a big difference either way.

I wanted to explain to him that dextrose is the best choice for a rapid insulin response.Every carb turns into glucose for energy it just depends on what you eat to determine how fast that will be converted into glucose.I'm not a dietitian or nutritionist but I have years of researching so I know what the best thing to put into my budy, and yes I know what I'm saying.I stand for this:glucose is in your body not in a box on sale for 2 dollars at the market.

Now after so much bla bla bla about this I might as well get the hell out of here.You guys have fun.

"The names dextrose and glucose are often used interchangeably, but it is important to note the difference. Glucose has several molecular forms. Dextrose is the biologically active form and is very common in plant and animal life. The other form is L-glucose, which does not occur naturally and is rare. Due to the rarity of L-glucose, glucose is almost exclusively used to refer to its active form of dextrose."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-Glucose

"L-Glucose is an enantiomer of the more common D-glucose: its molecular structure is the mirror image of the more common form of glucose. It does not occur naturally in higher living organisms, but can be synthesized in the laboratory. L-Glucose cannot be phosphorylated by hexokinase, the first enzyme in the glycolysis pathway, and so is not broken down by living organisms to release energy."

Yeah men also have their period :pfft: Nah bro I don't like to keep arguing about something when I know it's only gonna keep heating up...i'd rather relax,watch tv,surf porn,etc...

Full cream milk powder is only $9.99/kg at foodtown. That is damn good! Better to get the full cream stuff as you need adequate fat to digest protein, plus it's great for testosterone, and it'd be a great bulking aid. Protein in isolation won't do much.
