Cyclic dextrin? Or just Gatorade?

I always set my openers at something I can do for a solid triple on a bad day. Build confidence first.

I stick to 1g protein per lb of BW, 0.4g fat, and the rest carbs. Works like a charm.

I use it when I feel a cold coming on.

If you mix pea and rice, it mimics whey quite closely.

Look into Citrus Bergamot. It worked wonders for my LDL/HDL balance.
