When do people use it? Many people use it around training, or to help add carbohydrates and calories for mass gain. Follow the label directions.

Maltodextrin can be used anytime of the day as an effective energy source. However, we recommend to take it during or directly after training to assist the body's anabolic state. Add the desired dose to water or other sports drinks or supplements.

How to measure without using a scoop

1. Standard Serving Size: Approx. 30g per serve.
2. Measuring:
   • Tablespoon Method: About 1 tablespoon of whey protein is roughly 8 grams, so you may need about 4 tablespoons (2 heaping tablespoon) for a full serving.
   • Digital Scale: For best accuracy, use a digital scale to measure exactly 30g.

Can I mix Maltodextrin and Dextrose? 

Sure! A very popular alternative is to combine both carbohydrates in a 50:50 ratio. This combination  will optimize glycogen replenishment, hydration, and performance.  

What is the difference between Maltodextrin and Dextrose? 

• Dextrose is a monosaccharide (composed of one sugar) and maltodextrin is a polysaccharide (composed of multiple sugars). This makes a difference in the speed that your body can absorb the carbohydrates. 

• Because of the above, Dextrose is absorbed by the body slightly faster than Maltodextrin. 

• Dextrose tastes much sweeter than Maltodextrin. Both carbs are great to boost insulin and also refill glycogen stores after you finish your lifting. 

Which one you choose depends on your personal taste and what you find works best for your body.
