Using dextose along side with 50 grams of protein for a postworkout meal.

Post workout is the only time during the day you want to "Spike" your insulins levels. I get GREAT Results from Carbolyze from Species Nutrition.Waxy maize starch is a long-chain, high molecular weight, carbohydrate that’s 100 times larger than maltodextrin and 3000 times bigger than dextrose. Waxy maize starch is sugar-free, yet moves through the stomach 80% faster than either dextrose or maltodextrin and helps facilitate rapid glycogen resynthesis and nutrient uptake into the muscles. Gone are the days of bloating and cramping!

should be on the label of the dextrose package -- (grams per teaspoon)
