Maltodexrin
How much should I used in my post workout shake? I bought 5lbs from a homebrewer store so its just in a clear plastic bag. So I have no idea how many scoops or tbs. to use.

I like a mix of dextrose and maltodextrin - I have some research showing they're better together than either on its' own. I order it pre-mixed from TrueProtein.com

So is it best to take both dextrose and maltodextrin together with my post work out shake? Does this matter if you are bulking or cutting? Also does it really mess up the taste of the shake...my chocolate mint is good..I can't imagine adding this stuff is going to make it taste all that great!

if you're going the high GI route, dextrose and maltodextrin are best - they are refined sugars so there's no real taste, just sweetness. For a low GI solution check out Waxy Maize Starch. I don't know if believe all the hype about low osmalarity - it's supposed to digest faster than any other carb, but I also read something about it's dispersion allowing for faster absorption into the bloodstream. I am not a biochemist, so I don't know a lot about it.

false. malto is not a sugar at all. it is produced from starch much like waxy maize.

Dextrin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It's a gram for a gram - just weigh it...

As for it saying to take it before your workout that is what it is *supposed* to be for under most circumstances - you're just using it for bodybuilding purposes and that isn't what it was originally intended to be used for....

it is a polysaccharide, a complex carbohydrate consisting of polymers composed of several sugars, which technically speaking means it is a sugar. Starches are also sugars.

the way you typed it out comparing dextrose and malto and saying they are both "processed sugars" gives the wrong impression. dextrose is sugar where as 60 grams of malto has literally 2 grams of sugar.
