dextrose with carb or carb free drink?

[Billmister]

Ok i have a diet plan that i'm sticking to... Yesterday i got my R-ALA tabs (100mg tab) and my Dextrose from Supplement Direct.

Now normally after my workout i take a carb/pro drink that consists of

4 scoops= 50g protien, 150g carbs.
Now i was taking 3 scoops of that. It has maltodextrine in it to.

After looking at the ingredients of dextrose it says:
1/3 cup (80g) Total Carbs 75g Sugars 75g
Ingredient: DEXTROSE

Now my first question is this.
Should i just take a carb free drink(iso pure)50g protein, and add the servinges of the dextrose to that? Or mix it with my pro/carb drink? the way i see it, if i add it to the carb/pro drink that would be to many carbs.
i will be taking 400mg r-ala with that... one hour after that i will be eating brown rice with chicken breast.

My 2nd and last question is this.
1/3 cup? i suck at mesuring shit like that when it comes with no scoop. If i am only taking it with a carb free drink(iso pure) how many heaping table spoons should i take? or how many oz? making it easier for me to measure it. or how much of a normal scoop should i use? because i have a free scoop from my friends cell-tech?

thank you

If your drink already contains 150g of carbs from maltodextrone you don't need dextrose. I mean dextrose is better in my opinion but maltdextrone is just as good. If you are going to use dextrose get uorself a low to 0 carb protein powder like Iso-Pure or PRO-RATED and mix the dextrose to it.
