Product Information

The reaction between C-1 and C-5 yields a six-membered heterocyclic system called a pyranose, which is a monosaccharide sugar (hence "-ose") containing a derivatised pyran skeleton. The (much rarer) reaction between C-1 and C-4 yields a five-membered furanose ring, named after the cyclic ether furan. In either case, each carbon in the ring has one hydrogen and one hydroxyl attached, except for the last carbon (C-4 or C-5) where the hydroxyl is replaced by the remainder of the open molecule (which is −(C(CH 2OH)HOH)−H or −(CHOH)−H respectively).

This product is for those engaging in moderate to high-intensity or endurance exercise, actively burning energy and losing fluids through sweat.

What should I avoid while using Dextrose?Dextrose is a carbohydrate. Solutions containing dextrose provide calories and may be given intravenously in combination with amino acids and fats. These waters are likely not harmful and are as good as plain water to drink daily if you want to spend the money on them, but they are not contributing at all to your electrolyte intake. Be sure to read the nutrition facts panels on electrolyte waters to see whether they contain significant amounts of any electrolytes before using them to rehydrate." Harding, J. E., Hegarty, J.

BMC Pediatrics, 15(1), 120 Berri Fit Organic Electrolyte Beverage is a good choice for active individuals looking to replenish energy stores and some electrolytes. Think of this as a lighter, less artificial, lower sugar version of traditional sports drinks or highly concentrated fruit juice drinks. Boyd KL, et al. (1995).

If you’re not bringing a protein source to the crag with you, or you’re planning a long and intense day of climbing where you won’t necessarily be thinking about eating normal amounts of regular food, then adding whey protein to your shake is a good way to ensure you still get ample protein. Beyond muscle maintenance, the protein also supplies BCAAs and other amino acids that can support endurance, so it could make a difference if you’re out there long enough. Citrulline malate has two purposes: first, i t could potentially improve blood flow and thereby help reduce the pump; second, it’s delightfully sour and adds a nice flavor to any sports drink. In my opinion, it’s well worth adding for the second reason alone, but the first is potentially useful as well. Dextrose is made from refined starch – which comes from plants like corn or wheat. Dextrose also occurs naturally in some foods such as honey.It is also added to many savoury foods to help disguise high salt content, as the sweetness of the dextrose balances out a salty flavour.
