quick dextrose question

**go4gold** · 03-29-2005, 02:06 PM

I just got my dextrose, 2 big bags of the stuff from KENT, i was just wondering what is the measurements for the stuff, I have no guide and wonder how much is what. I have a little scooper in the bag, but how many carbs does it hold. how much is on scoop. Just need something to go off of, thanks

nothing on the box, the only thing i got with a name on it was a refridgerator magnet from kent nutrition.

Normally on the bottom of the scoop printing into the plastic it will tell you how many grams the scoop holds. Check that out.

As a matter of fact, I was wondering about that last night. So I went ahead and weighed the contents of 1 level scoop from the Kent box. It weighs just a hair above 10 grams. So each scoop should have ~40 calories and ~10 carbs. Hope that helps.
