    Buying dextrose in Canada?

    Could some Canadian boys tell me where they get their dextrose up here? I've typically just bought gatorade powder and mixed it with my creatine but I'd like to buy some dextrose. Help?

    I took this from their website:

    "Feeding athletes before their work-out both glucose and galactose based drinks showed significant and consistent results: the galactose drink produced much more even blood sugar than the glucose drink."

    Why the heck would I want this stuff compared to dextrose? It seems like it wouldn't do f***-all for creatine?

    I'm asking where can I buy some dextrose?

    Just go to a local wine or beer store, one where you can buy the kits and bottle your own stuff, they sell big bags of the stuff for cheap, it is used in the process of brewing beer and wine.

    hope that helps

    Just go to your local "natural health" store that sells products in bulk. Our local shop sells Dextrose in bulk for quite cheap. Just fill up that little baggie!
