Protein Scooper for Dextrose?

[mfenske]

I have been using four scoopersful of dextrose from my All the Whey protein. I figure this to be about 112g. Does that sound right? Mark

[cdogge]

just use the scoop they gave you with the dextrose...and see how many scoops it takes to fill up your protein scoop....

[bor]

1 scoop is aprox 50 g

[taiboxa]

actually a lvl scoop is about 48.5g's

So you're saying that the 28g (1 oz) scoop is 48g of carbohydrate? Crap. I've been over doing it then. Mark

I found this on the website of the Dextrose I use. www.barryfarm.com

If I calculated correctly each TBSP has about 16g of carbs. If I wanted 50g of carb that would only be 3 TBSP. That doesn't sound like enough. Aaargh! Mark.

dextrose serving of 4 carbs is 1.25 tsp which turns out to be about 48gcarbs in 1 protein scoop.

I spose that makes sense. Thanks. Mark

dextrose serving of 4 carbs is 1.25 tsp which turns out to be about 48gcarbs in 1 protein scoop.

What?

1 protein scoop is roughly 30 g's. The dextrose serving scooper is 10 g's...

1 protein scoop full of dextrose is 30 g's.

I ordered a 50lb of dextrose from www.honeyvillegrain.com and it came in a brown bag with no label. I e-mailed the company asking for a label and he said he had no idea how to help me. Anyone bought from them before? Will the measurements be the same for all dextrose?

[taiboxa]

yes dextrose is dextrose

due to its structure/nature fructose is metabolize in liver and does not do much for the expediant transportation of nutrients to the RAPED muscles.

My protien scoop is 1/3 of a cup. If yours is the same this would mean that you are adding about 250g carb.

Tai--

so 80g of carbs (dextrose) = 25tsp, which = .52 cups...is that right?

1 tsp = 4g
1 tbs = 12g
1 cup = 192g
.5 cup = 96g

Other useful equations

3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon
16 tablespoon = 1 cup
48 teaspoons also = 1 cup.

ok....I feel like an idiot. So if 1 of my scoops that came with the dex equals 3 tsps then.... 7 of my scoops equal 84 grams of carbs?

It would be a tablespoon if it is equal to 3 tsp. If that is truely it's size, than you are correct. If you are not sure, why not run to the 99 cent stopre and pick up a measuing cup.
