Honey question
As you all realize dextrose is a big thing right now. So of course, the store I buy it at was out. Won't have it for another week. So I was forced to buy some honey for my post work out shake. Anyways, the label doesn't have any sort of nutritional information on it or anything, so I was just wondering how much of this I should use post work out. Today I used 3 table spoons hoping this was equal to about 45g of dextrose??? Anyone know?

I would say that 2-3 tablespoons would be sufficient.

I'm sure it won't be too detrimental to you as a temporary thing, but honey does have a relatively low GI for a sugar...you might actually be better off using some other form of refined carbohydrate...I used to eat cornflakes post workout. I believe the GI is pretty close to 100. Or there's always powdered gatorade, which contains a good amount of dextrose.

Or sweet tart candies work just as well.
