Dextrose is a sugar (monosaccharide) from the group of aldohexoses. Mostly known as glucose because it is its isomer in the “D” configuration in the Fischer projection. A crystalline solid with a sweet taste, characterized by a very rapid absorption into the bloodstream. The adopted portion of dextrose raises the blood sugar level and stimulates our pancreas to secrete insulin. Its task is to lower blood sugar levels by “catching” glucose molecules from it and “embedding” them into muscles or liver, where they store energy in the form of glycogen – energy reserve material in animal organisms. Glycogen is consumed during physical delivery, which is why it is important to refill.
