Dextrose: a natural substance

Dextrose is a natural sugar substance which is to be found in fruits and honey, for example. Dextrose is obtained from starches such as maize starch, which is split into its individual molecules with the help of enzymes.

Dextrose goes straight into the blood

When we consume dextrose, it does not need to be digested. Dextrose goes straight into the bloodstream and is therefore the “fastest carbohydrate”! It is identical to the body’s own blood sugar and is transported to all cells and organs in the body, including the brain, via the blood. Dextro Energy is dextrose and thus delivers direct energy.   

Modern dextrose products, such as Dextro Energy, help to bridge short-term dextrose deficiencies. They cannot replace a balanced diet of main meals and healthy snacks, together with a healthy lifestyle. Instead they perform a ‘bridging function’: with their help the body can bridge gaps in the energy supply.

How do I use the dextrose “bridging function” to my best advantage?

When the energy supply is just not enough, and you can feel your blood sugar dropping, you can reinforce your body with dextrose. However, you should not ingest a large amount of this product at once; instead you should take smaller amounts at short intervals.

The ideal dosage

The ideal dose is half a square every 15 to 20 minutes. This dose increases blood sugar to a normal level and maintains this level. If you take too much at once, it will not have the desired effect on performance. Blood sugar levels are pushed up too quickly and can then fall back down to under the normal value. They ride a proverbial rollercoaster.

During physical activities such as sport the body uses larger quantities of dextrose; therefore during physical exertion more tablets may be consumed.
