Dextrose

Dextrose is a natural monosaccharide, which is an isomer of the glucose molecule. It's a white crystalline powder that dissolves in water. Dextrose can reach our body with food. It's found in the cells of some berries and fruits and synthesized during photosynthesis. In animals, this compound is formed as a result of the breakdown of more complex carbohydrates. The glycemic index of dextrose is 100. In addition, it has 377 kcal. Just like glucose, dextrose is involved in many metabolic processes.

Effects of dextrose on the body Dextrose picture

Since dextrose consists of only one molecule (it's a monosaccharide), the process of absorption is extremely fast. The metabolism of the dextrose starts when it reaches the mouth. Other carbohydrates start to be absorbed only in the process of digestion. Due to this property, it's often called a "super-fast carbohydrate".

The speed of sugar absorption has great importance for athletes and bodybuilders. "Light" sugar contributes to the rapid release of insulin into the blood, which directly affects the speed of recovery of the body during heavy training. By taking dextrose during training, one can maintain high levels of glycogen in your muscles. A large amount of this energy contributes to a longer work of the muscles. Fatigue will be delayed and slowed down.

In the world of sports, dextrose is actively used by athletes who perform in cyclical sports: running, cycling, swimming, triathlon, hockey, football, and so on. It's also used by athletes engaged in power sports: weightlifting, power-lifting, and arm wrestling.

Useful properties of dextroce

Dextrose is useful only if you know how to use it wisely without exceeding the recommended dose. Your body needs around 120-140 grams of this type of sugar daily. The main organ that requires dextrose is the brain. Dextrose is the only carbohydrate that can move directly into the cells of the human body saturating them with energy.
