Modern dextrose products, such as Dextro Energy and Dextropur, help to bridge short-term dextrose deficiencies. They cannot replace a balanced diet of main meals and healthy snacks, together with a healthy lifestyle. Instead they perform a ‘bridging function’: with their help the body can bridge gaps in the energy supply.
How do I use the dextrose “bridging function“ to my best advantage?
When the energy supply is just not enough, and you can feel your blood sugar dropping, we recommend reinforcing your body with dextrose. However, you should not ingest a large amount of this product at once; instead you should take smaller amounts at short intervals.
The ideal dosage
The ideal dose is half a square every 15 to 20 minutes. This dose increases blood sugar to a normal level and maintains this level. If you take too much at once, it will not have the desired effect on performance. Blood sugar levels are pushed up too quickly and can then fall back down to under the normal value. They ride a proverbial rollercoaster.
During sport your dextrose requirement increases
Symptoms of excessive dextrose doses: nausea or stomach problems. As always, too much of anything is bad for you – it’s the quantity that counts. An exception to this rule is physical activities, such as sport, because during physical exertion the body uses large quantities of dextrose. This situation may be resolved by taking several tablets.
