    Complex carbs always; oats. No need for sugar in any diet period.

    I go with oats and a bit of fruit - 1/2 a banana or small apple.

    I see no benefit in purposely consuming straight sugar (dextrose/malto) at any time. As for Waxy Maize or Vitagro... save your money IMO. You don't NEED a fast acting carb. Oats are just fine and they're 100 times cheaper.
