I usually just throw a bunch of fruit in with my whey. Sometimes a whole banana, some blueberries,strawberries. If not I just have the shake with a banana and a bowl of oats with the berries. I dont see how that could go wrong.

fructose does not need to be transported to cells with the use of insulin , therefore fructose does not cause an insulin spike.
Fructose can have many harmfull effects on ones body. therefore it is better not to ingest large amounts of it.
Bananas contain a lot of starch btw.

I can see the reasoning behind not using dex....
However, it seems like there would be another source of carb that would be better besides oats simply because oats contain a relatively high amount of fat and I thought fat was to be avoided at all costs PWO and PPWO.
Any explanations?

If you're eating 1 cup oats thats 6 g fat....you'll be fine bro.
brown rice would be fine too.

I like to use some Dex PWO right after training, not neccessairly at a 2:1 Pro:Carb ratio but at least 1:1, they are simple carbs and depending on the rest of your diet will not contribute significantly to fat gain. After a strenous workout and left depleated, some Dex PWO is helpful. I also believe how long after you can have a PWO meal if you cant have a meal within 1 hour then some Dex in definitly helpful

I dont use dex, but I will admit that I did like it for sure. I felt good using it but have not found reduced results not usign it either.
I like having gatorade sometimes with my amino cocktail PWO.

But 1 cup of oats is only 46 g of carbs (going off memory, correct me if I'm wrong).
My macros call for much more than that PWO as well as PPWO.
I agree about the brown rice... I was just curious to hear some people using oats... as I avoid them for both PWO and PPWO due to the fat.
Perhaps those that use oats are only using a cup or so, but it doesn't seem like much carbs.

Before I switched to dex, I did 1 cup oats (54g carbs) PWO and PPWO. I loved oats but I think dex works a bit better for me. You could do 1.5 cups oats PWO if your concerned about not having enough carbs PWO.
