    Do NOT mix flax with dextrose. Just take the dextrose with protein, either mixed together or separtely, but fairly close together. You do not want to mix fats with quick acting carbs as it will shuttle the fats straight to body fat and slow down the absorption of the protein and carbs.

    Getting your dextrose from a creatine mix is fine, as long as it is pure dextrose.

    dextrose, and not additional sugar

    Ok, I THINK what you're saying is that you want to make one shake that contains pro and flax and then another with creatine and dextrose, is that right?

    Sorry bro, I didn't explain myself very well.

    Last week I mixed dex with my protein shake and it tasted like sh*t. I know not to mix flax with the PWO shake now.

    I was wondering if I can get my dex from my creatine mix. BTW, the only reason I'm taking creatine is to get the PWO Dex.

    Just the way the scoop measurements work out. I guess I could drop a little from the dex.
