    Measuring Dextrose

    Hey, I had a question about measuring dextrose...it just comes in a bag,I know I need about 70 grams post workout but how do I measure this?? I have been putting about 14 table spoons of it in my protein shake post workout because I figured one tablespoon at around 5 grams....what do you think???

    I think the 1tbsp = 12-17 grams is a good measure, I have a digital scale and when I take 1 tbsp and weigh it usually comes out to about 13g.
