So, what is !glucose?
Glucose, also known as dextrose, is a simple sugar that is a vital source of energy for our bodies. It is a carbohydrate that is naturally found in fruits, honey, and some vegetables. As an ingredient, glucose is widely used in food and beverage production as a sweetener, a thickener, and a humectant to prevent food from drying out. It is also used in the pharmaceutical industry as an intravenous source of energy for patients who are unable to eat. Glucose has a high glycemic index, meaning it can quickly raise blood sugar levels, and is often used as a supplement for athletes and bodybuilders to enhance performance and endurance.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
