Dextrose Monohydrate

Dextrose Monohydrate is a crystalline form of glucose, a simple sugar derived primarily from corn starch. It is called "monohydrate" because each molecule of dextrose is bound to one molecule of water. Dextrose is chemically identical to glucose, which is the sugar naturally found in our blood and used by the body for energy. Dextrose Monohydrate is a versatile ingredient used across food, pharmaceutical, and fitness industries due to its role as a sweetener, preservative, energy source, and texture enhancer. It is particularly valued for its quick absorption and ability to provide rapid energy. ​ KEY PROPERTIES - Sweetness: It has a mildly sweet flavor, about 70-75% as sweet as sucrose (table sugar). High solubility: Easily dissolves in water. Caloric: Provides energy, as it is a carbohydrate.
