Recommended I just got off of my cutting phase and was looking to add more carbs into my shakes during the day and since it is hard for me to gain weight, I was looking for something powder wise rather than more food on my bulk. I came across this supplement and ordered a 10 lb tub and I am so glad I did.

Value: 10
First of off, this was the best part about it. I got 10 lbs of this for $24 at allstarhealth.com and for the amount, it was a great deal.

Effectiveness: 9
I have noticed more energy post workout as I do not crash as hard as the carbs allow me to function better afterwards and have noticed a better and lean bulk gain. For the price I paid and the purpose I use it for, this is an excellent product to supplement with.

Dosage:
I take about 46 grams postworkout with around 50 grams of protein to help me bulk better and increase muscle gains.

Taste: 10
All I could taste it that my shakes tasted sweeter but that was it. I added more water to my shakes as it got too sweet with the amount I put in but that is about the only downfall is that it can be too sweet i large amounts.

Overall:
A great product and even better price, I recommend this to anyone who is on a bulk or has trouble gaining weight to put on some lean pounds of muscle.
Pros:
Cons:
  • Good Value
  • Builds Muscle
  • Increased Energy
  • Awesome Taste
  • No Scoop

Recommended this review will be short due to im not 100% certain on how to review this other than how i feel it did for me. i used it during a bulking phase. i used a ON whey scooper which is said to be about 50g carbohydrates, in conjunction with ON hydrobuilder. now i was eating alot during this time, but i was not using far to many supplements. i cant attest to how much muscle i gained while using this but during my phase i went from 195-198lbs to 212-215 (weird scale) in 4 months while only gaining about 2-3% bodyfat. believe it or not thats up to you but im going by measurements.

effectiveness-10: now this is something that helps spike insulin. im sure it did that being its so high on the glycemic scale so i cant help but rate it for doing exactly what its supposed to do. i was rarely sore during my bulk and if i was it didnt last to long. i cant say this directly contributed to that but knowing its main function im sure it did.

taste-6: i thought this would make my shake sweet as candy. instead it gave it a slight cornmeal flavor. and made my shake almost taste as if it was bit stale. not unbearable but i was disappointed.

cost-10: dirt cheap no reason to complain. and it lasted a while so cant beat that

my only complaints is that it came in a bag, that wasnt resealable so i had to find a container for it. thats nothing tho so i dont hold it against it. also the no scoop kinda is a pain but as i said i used an ON whey scoop and i keep the used scoops so it was also not to much a problem.

i believe used with hydrolized whey you have a post workout dream in a cup for your muscles.

i will definitely be using it again on my next bulk cycle and i will be using more of it in that time.

Cons:
  • Builds Muscle

  • No Scoop

Nice Review bro. I think 25 grams of this would be perfect for a slight insulin spike during a cut.

Recommended I would use NOW Dextrose for my carb source in my post-workout shape. Good post workout carb source, mixes great, taste like sugar. Lasted me forever, I probably used it over 2 semesters of college. Only con was no scoop and if you let it sit around for too long it would taste terrible, found that out the hard way.

Recommended Dextrose, quite possibley the most important supplement post workout. This stuff is great, while boasting a 100 on the glycemic index, It will help you put on weight with ease. Another good quality about dextrose is the taste. Mix this in with your post workout shake and it will taste like candy. another good quality is the price, i got a 10 lb container for 20 bucks on BodyBuilding.com. Although the package in the picture is the old package, the new container is just like a protein container.I will usually throw in 25g of dextrose with my intra BCAA's. It gives a extra little boost in the gym. The only problem i have with this is that it doesn't come with a scoop. But don't worry about that guys, unlce worm is here to help. 1 ON Whey scoop= 50g of dextrose. Its been tested with a scale so its legit guys. So Bigworm gives this 2 thumbs up, and if you want some sweet candy flavored protein shakes then get it.

Cons:

Do not take this before bed. Before a workout would be ok, but Post workout would be most beneficial.
