Overview

Dextrose, also known as a corn sugar, is a simple carbohydrate that rates very highly on the Glycemic Index. As a fast acting source of energy, Dextrose is suitable for all athletes looking for improved energy levels.

Dextrose is often added to energy drinks due to its sweet taste and great ability to dissolve in liquid as well as its ability to boost energy levels. It has also been reported that Dextrose helps improve the absorption of various other nutrients and sports supplements. A number of studies have shown that Dextrose can dramatically increase the absorption of creatine.

Used before, during and after exercise Dextrose can increase stamina and endurance whilst also improving your ability to recover from intense exercise. Dextrose raises blood sugar levels, which is why it's so effective at improving energy, recovery and driving creatine in to your muscle.

Review:
Quality stuff ive taken it in my post workout shake afew times now and the effects are amazing as other reviews suggest it makes you feel more ready for a workout than before you started. it does improve the mixability quite well adds alot of weight to the shake and prevents the small lumps that i commonly see. taste is very sweet and seems to thicken up the shake which isnt to my liking but not too much of a problem just add more water/less dextrose, worth a try at the price per kg.

Review:
This shit is like rocket fuel. I take it immediately post-workout, lifting or cardio, to replenish glycogen stores, and I bike ride home from the gym - me and my mate refer to it as the "dexo kick", 10-15 minutes after workout taking this and the exhaustion is gone, sometimes feel like I didn't even work out. As Paul below said, if you're taking it, you already know the science :p
Goes well with which Myprotein products:
Impact Whey, Creapure

Andrew Marley (20/06/2011)
Review:
Great product, cheap simple and great taste. Mixes easy in a post or pre w/o shake and adds a nice sweet flavour. My recovery seems good on this, vitargo is probably better but is no comparison on price.
Goes well with which Myprotein products:
Impact whey, creatine mono,

Review:
Great for fast absorption. i have it straight after a workout before a post workout meal. I found that it is best not to put it with my protein shake as it makes it too sweet but instead to have it in a different pre-shaken bottle with my creatine. if you water down your fruit juice so it is about 50/50 and then add the dextrose the sweetness kind of cancels out. Good value, thanks MP!
Goes well with which Myprotein products:
creatine, 50/50 fruit juice/water

Its dextrose, youre not going to see any difference using it alone. Mix it with your whey or other suppplements and it helps your body take the supplement in and use it effectively. If you're using dextrose, you already know the science. Top product, does exactly what it says on the tin.
Goes well with which Myprotein products:
Whey or any other supplement.

P McL (12/04/2011)
Review:
When product arrived with the rest of my order I wanted to try it out with the melon protein powder. I ordered melon flavour so I could mix it with water instead of milk like i do all the time and thought this would be good to add in to improve the taste and be good for pre and post workout carbs. The powder is like a very fine sugar and it is as sweet as if not sweeter than sugar if that is possible, this makes me wonder if MP got the dosing right of one large scoop, it probably is for nutritional values however I put slighlty less than a half a large scoop in to my shake and it made it so sweet it was almost undrinkable. Don't get me wrong the product is everything it is supposed to be and will most likely do what it is supposed to however if you are not prepared for the sweetness you will be in for a shock. Might take with the creatine that I ordered to help with absorption (look at MP's creatine gluconate, this stuff with the mono would do same job). Also will try it in my homemade isotonic drink it should work well in that, tastes just like the branded stuff. Add 150ml pure orange juice to a normal orange dilute and water,pinch or two of salt and probably a heaped teaspoon or two of this...try it!

Review:
this is a great product to mix with anyting that is unflavored...specialy if you drink it before training with BCAA, EAA or salts...lets face it you have to use all those, and on mp they are the cheapest but taste horrible, but if you mix with glucose...it becomes pretty great tasting stuff and um thing mp folks missed to mention is that glucose is predigested sugar, yep same sugar you got in your kitchen...just easyer to absorb it...so it pretty much does the same thing as normal sugar, just does it quicker! tho cause of that reason only i preffer glucose

Everything

Review:
ordered this product got it next day from myprotein so hats of there guys. great little product and cheapest iv found so will be back for more as i use this in my training daily as a carbohydrate which increases my energy balance which facilitates creatine and amino acid transport to the tissue cells.

pretty much any thing you can add to any juice and water mix you like of just drink with water its like any supplement its going to have a strange taste.

This tastes extremely sweet, i personaly did not like it. As for effectiveness i havn`t noticed any changes.

Awesome Stuff (29/03/2010)
Review:
Just made my first recovery shake with 25g whey and 50g dextrose. Tastes amazing, mixes great and costs one third of the price of my other major branded shake!

Well Done MP (10/12/2009)
Review:
good quality and a great price, using it pre & post workout and it gives the energy boost needed

good stuff (29/11/2009)
Review:
this is what it is, its just dextrose. its sweet in taste. i use it for my post workout shakes and find it of excellent qualtiy. improves mixability of other powders such as protein etc which is helpful.

Good Stuff (28/11/2009)
Review:
Only just purchased a bag of this stuff and seems quite good. Am currently mixing it with water, 30g whey protein and creatine post work out. Is this ok? Can it be mixed with milk instead of water????????????????

Superb (14/10/2009)
Review:
Dextrose is dextrose - but thank you to MP for supplying it in bulk at a reasonable price. Dextrose is hugely important as part of any pwo shake for recovery and growth! Mix 40-60g with 40g of protein to create the perfect shake for recovery and growth - this means you can spend the rest of your money on a quality protein powder that you can simply add the dextrose to! Also great for adding to any protein shakes throughout the day to create your own mass gainer! Simply add 15g dextrose and 20g powdered oats to 30g of protein!

Sweet! (06/09/2009)
Review:
Good stuff this, mixes easy with protein and gives the unflavoured protein i also bought from here a nice sweet taste, definitely will order this again!

Top notch (19/08/2009)
Review:
I've ordered 5kg, definitely happy, does the job and I would recommend it to anyone. I will buy more on my next order.

Review:
This dextrose is extremely cheap, a monomer that will cause absolutely no GI disturbances. Have tried waxy maize and maltodextrin but this cannot be beaten on value for money.

Does its job (09/06/2009)
Review:
what more can i say, ultra sweet, masks creatine like a treat and gives you that uplift of energy when you need it. top notch stuff again from myprotein. tho to be honest i think next time ill be getting and waxy maize starch

Gets Protein/Creatine absorbed into the tissue faster after a work out. Makes even the foulest of tasting shakes taste good!\n\nGood Stuff!

Excellent. (09/04/2009)
Review:
This is amazing stuff. The taste is very, very sweet, but can be offset well with a squeeze of lemon juice. It mixes with no fuss and is great value for money. I'm one happy customer!

Great post workout (02/04/2009)
Review:
First started using this product post workout about 6 weeks ago and it has really made a difference, it really helps pick me up after a long hard session at the gym, particulary after cardio. I am currently using 60g dextrose, 40g whey, 5g creatine post work out and it seems to be a good combination.

Brilliant (11/02/2009)
Review:
Mix 75g of dextrose and 10g of creatine and you have muscletech cell hardcore for a fraction of the price! ( Normally £40 in gnc) Great for pwo only. Mix it with protein, creatine and you get your own version of cyclone, snergy phd, and other all in one formulas for one great price. Buy

Dextrose (03/12/2008)
Review:
The cheapest hi GI carbohidrate. I like taking about 60 grams PWO. It makes my glycogen levels to go up so my lean muscle can grow fast.

FAULTLESS (23/09/2008)
Review:
Ordered a few weeks ago and it came 2 days later, very impressed with the delivery time. I actually ordered the dextrose itself because it was recommended to me as part of a pre-workout drink. The quality is exceptional and it really got me pumped and on a rush for my last few workouts.\n\nI have since ordered some Pulse and a bunch of other things so can't wait to try those!\n\nMP all the way, 5 Stars. Very refreshing to have a cheap, high quality UK (stress on the UK bit) supplement company that i can rely on.

Surprisingly good... (10/10/2007)
Review:
I've been using MyProtein products for about four months now, and I have to say that this has been my best purchase so far. I was a little dubious at first - the cheap price tag made me think twice about ordering it. I decided that I might as well make my order as cheap as possible - no flavour, sweetener or tub. I have tried both Vanilla and Raspberry flavoured whey supplements from MP, and neither taste as good as this does. It's sweet and creamy and tastes fantastic in water (unlike a lot of flavoured whey products). I actually look forward to my PWO shake now. Great product.

Dextrose = Glucose (07/09/2007)
Review:
According to all scientifically published research the best way to get that creatine or protein into your body after a workout is to use Glucose. Therefore this stuff fits the bill. It also helps improve the flavour from the fruity flavouring systems. I use at least 30-40g pre/post workout every single workout. You should too!!!

To Sweet ! (06/07/2007)
Review:
Having tried maltodextrin and now dextrose, i much prefer malto. Dextrose is incredibly sweet and no matter how much i shake it up, I always get some leftover granules at the bottom which when drank make me heave. I would say if you have a sweet tooth you might be ok with this product but otherwise choose malto. They do exactly the same thing anyway, replace glycogen.

GREAT! (07/03/2007)
Review:
Very nice in kia-ora mixed berry flavour juice. Mixes very easy and is great value.

PWO carbs! (19/01/2007)
Review:
cant go wrong with the price, a big tub lasts me ages and it of course tastes nice and sweet

good stuff (02/11/2006)
Review:
Just ordered 10kg of dextrose and lots of other supplements and dextrose is a great pre and post shake and is also great at helping improve the benfits of creatine, i havent put 5 stars cus i ve only just started using this product well done MP. P.S its very sweet which is a gdd thing in my book

brilliant (23/10/2006)
Review:
This stuff is an excellent source of high G.I. carbs for your PWO shake, and its very cheap too!!\r\n\r\n

Really good addition to my PWO shake. I've been using this for about 6 months now after switching from other overpriced brands.
