Dextrose
Auch bekannt als: destrosio
Dextrose is just glucose, a basic sugar your body already runs on.
Dextrose is another name for glucose, a simple sugar found naturally in fruit, honey, and made from cornstarch for food use. It's a normal energy source for the body, not a chemical additive with a hazard profile. The only real concern is eating too much added sugar overall, not dextrose specifically.

Why it matters
Dextrose is the food-industry name for glucose, the simplest kind of sugar and the main fuel your cells run on. It's used to sweeten foods, help browning in baked goods, add bulk, and prevent ice crystals in frozen desserts. It's also the sugar given in medical glucose solutions and used by athletes for quick energy. Nobody needs to specifically worry about 'dextrose' as an ingredient — it behaves in the body exactly like the glucose you get from bread, rice, or fruit.
