What is Dextrose (D-Glucose) Powder?
Dextrose is a simple sugar (monosaccharide) that is derived from corn starch. It is commonly sourced from corn starch and is considered a very high glycemic index (GI) carbohydrate, this allows for a quick energy release into the body.
Dextrose is a popular ingredient in sports energy drinks as it is less sweet than cane sugar. It is a versatile food and can be used to create your own pre/post workout blend. It is sometimes used when making ice creams as it hinders crystallisation. It can also be mixed with Whey Protein, Creatine & amino acids such as Glutamine to meet your requirements.
Dextrose is particularly popular with bodybuilders, cyclists and tri athletes. Peak Supps Dextrose Powder is 100% pure with nothing added or taken away.
