What Is Dextrose?

Dextrose, also known as D-glucose, is a simple sugar belonging to the group of carbohydrates called monosaccharides.

Glucose is used by the body as an energy source. Unlike a starch, which consists of multiple sugar units joined together, dextrose is already a single sugar molecule.

That's why dextrose is often found in carbohydrate powders, sports nutrition products and food preparations.

One Ingredient. Plenty of Uses.

There are no complicated flavour combinations here. Spartan Dextrose contains one declared ingredient, so you can decide what to mix it with.

• Protein shakes: Add a measured quantity when you want carbohydrates alongside your protein.
• Sports drinks: Use as part of a suitable homemade carbohydrate drink.
• Post-training drinks: An option when your nutrition plan includes carbohydrate intake after exercise.
• Smoothies: Mix with other ingredients according to your needs.

Dextrose is a sugar, so the amount you use should reflect your dietary needs and total daily sugar intake. It isn't necessary for every training session or individual.
