    Dextrose... Urggh!

    I know dextrose is dextrose and i know its supposed to taste sweet but the dex i have at the moment is unbelievabley sweet! I put 2 scoops in with my protein yesterday and after about 2 mouthfuls i felt sick to the stomach. I tried with just 1 scoop today and it was still very sickly. Is it me or what? My last dextrose was never this sweet... Do i just need to be a man and drink it?!

    I used just over 400ml of water. It didn't come with a scoop so i used my protein scoop which is 28.4g or something around that. (allthewhey)

    the weight of your whey protein in that scoop is different than the dextrose because of density. so if your scoop holds 28.4 g whey which is lighter that dextrose, so 1 scoop of dextrose will definitly be more than 30 grams.

    1/2 cup dex is approximately 80g, just do that.
