Thaibox -- What makes you think dextrose is any different than sucrose? Maltodextrin is worse because it isn't as sweet so you need more of it. It's still 4 calories of carbs per gram.
Simple, speed. Same reason you take whey post workout instead of casein. Dextrose and Malto are virtually the same as far as GI and uptake. Dextrose is sweeter, but who cares. We're not drinking the shit to savor it, we're building our bodies.
