It comes in the form of a well-soluble powder, which is also suitable as part of a recovery drink.
Dextrose - a simple sugar that will provide you with quick energy before, during or after exercise
Dextrose is a simple carbohydrate (sugar) that works great as a quick energy source before, during or after exercise. Its structure resembles that of glucose (grape sugar), which enables it to quickly pass through the stomach and be almost immediately absorbed in the digestive tract. This makes it a quickly available source of energy that the body can use for any activity. Being easily digestible makes it also well tolerated, even during intense physical activity.
This product comes in the form of a well-soluble powder, which you just need to mix together with water or your favourite drink and enjoy. Thus, you will get a carbohydrate drink that will help you with energy replenishment before, during or after exercise. While engaged in endurance activities, it will also allow you to save the storage form of carbohydrate known as glycogen for the later part of your performance. Once you are done with said activities, it will in turn contribute to quickly replenishing your glycogen stores.
Apart from runners and cyclists, it will come in handy for all those who do crossfit, martial artists, football or hockey players as well as all other athletes who need to replenish energy during difficult trainings, races or matches. Last but not least, it is suitable for bodybuilders and other strength training athletes, especially before exercise as a way of boosting energy or after, as part of a recovery drink. However, Dextrose can also be used to effectively increase caloric intake in the bulking phase of training.
