maltodextrin best fast weight gain

bbg420 · Jan 12, 2016

I notice every weight gain formula always contains maltodextrin as carb source, is that the best option if weight gain is your goal, I like instead of buying already made weight gainer cause protein source is usually lower quality ,I like whey protein mixed with cytocarb 2 my own weight gainer, lots of guys say if you gotta get in 5000 plus calories ,those weight gainers are a must for some ,even ifbb physique pro jeff seid uses them ,its so hard to get 5000 from food only, so how about maltodextrin then

I would not say it is the best for weight gain, I would say it is one of the cheapest and easiest complex carbs to add that mixes well and that's probably why it's in there. I make my own 1500 cal shakes no maltodextrin although I do have a ton of it sitting around.

Have you tried grinding up oats into a powder using a coffee bean grinder?

maltodextrin is a carbohydrate, which will affect your blood sugar. It's a common ingredient in sports drinks. The body digests it as a simple carbohydrate. You can use them as supplement to help maintain anaerobic powder during exercise.
