6% BCAA
6% L Glutamine
20% Maltodextrin
35% Dextrose
3% Creatine Monohydrate
30% Hydrolysed Whey Protein
Is pretty much the same thing at the same price - but is absolutely disgusting! Biotest have somehow managed to mask that yucky hydrolysed whey.
NB - Surge is obviously whey better (get it?) but as I can’t get hold of the stuff, this is how I get around it
Dont forget the L-Phenylalanine and the sucralose. Surge also doesnt have creatine monohydrate. [/quote]
L-Phenylalanine is of minor importance, and sucralose obviously has nothing to do with the effectiveness of Surge.
I am aware that Surge does not have creatine in it - this is a modification of my own which I have found to be very beneficial - as you are supposed to ingest creatine during your post-workout “insulin spiking” anyway.
Does anyone know where to get just plan maltodextrin and dextrose? I’m having a hell of a time trying to find them. Might be a stupid question, but hey I need it answered.

Hey i just thought you were talking about the exact ingredients of Surge :), so i included the sucralose in relation to the taste department.
Mix dextrose with some whey isolate. You may want to use maltodextrin later as it has a lower glycemic index and it won’t spike insulin levels as much.
