Dextrose Monohydrate

Dextrose Monohydrate is the most important font of energy for cells and tissues of our body. In fact, it is used especially by the brain and red cells, but it is essential for the metabolism of all the cells in the body. It is used for aerobic or anaerobic cellular respiration, for fermentation and for many other reactions. 

Dextrose is used by many athletes to obtain energy ready to use during intense exercise, or after the training to restore the deposits of glycogen. It can help ensure that hard-worked muscles are not deprived of the protein and nutrients they need to recover, repair and replenish. 

Dextrose has a high glycemic index (GI) rating which allows it to enter the bloodstream very quickly. This action stimulates a powerful and almost instantaneous insulin response. Insulin is a natural hormone with strong anabolic properties that helps drive nutrients into the cells of hungry muscle fibers, such as creatine monohydrate, beta-alanine, L-arginine, L-carnitine and others. 

Taking Dextrose post-workout can maximize your gains and help you get the most out of this all-important post-workout window.
