What It Is

Dextrose, also known as D-glucose, is quite identical to glucose itself. It is derived from starch and can quickly convert into a source of energy in the human body.

Chemical Properties

Molecular Formula: C₆H₁₂O₆
Synonyms: D-glucose, Dextrose monohydrate

Why We Use It

Dextrose fuels the reaction between magnesium and water, producing hydrogen and water. It slightly acidifies water, which improves the taste and disintegration of molecular hydrogen tablets.

Where to Find It

Dextrose is naturally derived from starch found in corn, wheat, and rice. It is also found in processed foods, including table sugar, honey, and bread.
