Dextrose 7 Pounds
Dextrose is a carbohydrate that greatly helps individuals perform better and last longer to cope with the demands of heavily strenuous activities. Dextrose is a very convenient energy source that facilitates rapid delivery and absorption of important nutrients by muscle tissues. Muscle glycogen can instantly be replaced during or after exercise.Dextrose is derived from cornstarch and is easily digestible. The starch is initially cooked. Acids and/or enzymes are then added to break the starch into smaller polymers. The process is highly similar to what occurs inside the body when digesting carbohydrates. Dextrose is also known as glucose, a term that was replaced by the term dextrose.Dextrose is about half as sweet as sugar. It is readily absorbed by the body and mixes well in fluids.The fine white powder has a bland taste and mixes well with different types of liquids. The product contains no fat and provides virtually instant fuel for your body.Bodybuilders usually incorporate dextrose in their diets during the bulking phase. One benefit of dextrose is that it increases blood sugar levels almost instantly and the body responds with almost an instant increase in insulin levels, making it ideal for better absorption of protein powder and creatine. One drawback would be the extremely high calories, so although dextrose itself contains no fat, the excess calories will result in a combination of muscle and fat gain.
