    Do apples count as Dextrose/PWO carbs?

    Would an apple be a good source for part of your PWO dextrose intake? 1 large apples is about 32 carbs. I know I would need more intake, but apples do grow on tree's

    Apples = fructose....

    From what I've read, they help replenish glycogen in your liver, not your muscles, and the latter is what you want.... so, I would say that it's not a good idea...

    Apples would do absolutely nothing positive in this situation.

    Leave them on the tree.
