I am currently taking about 65grms of carbs 45g dextrose and 20 maltodextrose... along with 28g of protein. This is the first time I have taken these type of carbs post workout. Previousley I was using fructose (fruits)!!
Now that Im using these, I seem to get a small cramp/upset stomach about 10 mins after drinking this shake? It last for about 30-45 mins. I know its spiking my insulin which im not used to but not sure why the cramp. Never had one before! I drink one gal of water/day and immediatley after this shake.
Today I noticed that my stool was loose, not normal, (whcih I just concluded happens everytime the day after this shake)! Seems like I am not digesting these carbs well? I am thinking of replacing the dex with all maltodextrin, no dextrose to see if it helps the problem.
Anyone else have any probs with this much dextrose post workout?
