Dextrose is a type of simple sugar, chemically identical to glucose, which is a primary source of energy for the body. It is a monosaccharide, meaning it consists of a single sugar unit. Dextrose is found naturally in many foods, particularly fruits and honey, but it's also produced commercially from starches, usually corn.

In terms of its uses, dextrose is common in both food and medical applications. In the food industry, it’s used as a sweetener and to enhance flavor, improve texture, and preserve freshness in various processed foods and beverages. It’s also a key ingredient in some sports drinks and energy products due to its quick absorption and rapid energy release.

Medically, dextrose is used in intravenous solutions to treat low blood sugar levels and provide a quick source of energy in hospitals. It’s also employed in certain treatments to manage dehydration and electrolyte imbalances.

Dextrose is similar to glucose in its effects on the body, leading to a rise in blood sugar levels. This can be particularly relevant for individuals with diabetes or those monitoring their blood sugar for other health reasons.
