    IGF (Insulin-Like Growth Factor) It is similar to Slin but definitely not as harmful. I continue to follow the protocol that I do for slin but it doesnt have to be measured out as accurately. I'll take about 60-80g Dex/Malt PWO along w/ 60g isolate. Then continue to consume my high carb/protein meals afterwards. Dont stress yourself out about it Marshall. Its really a great drug with minimal sides. In my case, I've ran up to 100mcg's and NO sides.

    I Heard That You Should Consume Double The Amount Of Dextrose To Protein...Maybe Someone Could Back me Up On This...

    well your body will tell you if you need to up the carbs or not. If you are feeling lathargic then up them.. if you have your normal energy level then you are fine.
