I’m heading for UD2 carbup tmrw and this time around I’m looking to keep my carbup light. I intend on being around people / social and I’d like to avoid feeling super full and worse, gasey. Usually I pound bagels and white rice, but this time I’d like to go say, 50% bagels and 50% liquid carbs via either dextrose or maltodextrin.

Question: Is there benefits / drawbacks to using either dextrose or maltodextrin via shake?

One thing I notice: Sugar. Dextrose is like pure sugar and I know you are suppose to keep sucrose to 100g during carbup. My Carbo Gain (100% maltodextrin) has only 2g of sugar per 47 carbs.

If someone could help me out that would be great. I’d plan on alternating a liquid carb meal with a non-liquid carb meal all day tmrw.

Thanks.
