silver spoon is just another fancy name for table sugar rite?
m&ms have dex in em , honey even if u run outta dex for a week its not gonna kill ya......... i think gatorade or those carb drinks r full of dex......
Yeah, if abused, the powdered gatorade mix is good stuff.
Table sugar is not a good choice for glycogen replinishment, no.
Honey is superior.

Ok ill try not to make a habit of it but that was all I had this morning,,

1(Glucose) is found in some fruits, onions, vegetables, and liquid or tablet form glucose is the bodies first energy supply.
2 dextrose..I reason I put this second to glucose is that it is required by the body to be broken down before use glucose is not..
3 fructose
4 Galactose is the sugar found in milk.
