What is it? A New type of sports drink that is made from glucose as its main sugar. As the maker of this drink discovered, glucose requires no digestion. It naturally expends energy as it enters into the blood stream, and since it is naturally occurring, it does not use the chemicals which dehydrate you and gives you a natural boost of energy. This drink also claims to not result in a "sugar crash". According to Gleukos' website: "Gleukos is all natural and won't leave that overly sweet. syrupy taste in your mouth". Gleukos contains a large number of electrolytes which are vital to health. Gleukos even claims to be healthy for those who are diabetic! Although I have never seen this sports/energy drink, it can be found in places like CVS, Whole Foods Market, and 7 eleven.
This Gleukos energy drink is also the first to use a plastic, collapsable pouch. Supposedly the company used this because it is said to take up 50% less space and is 80% lighter. It also used a special valve to make the drink spill proof as well as leak proog. Here are some articles about this drink:
And its website:
Sounds like it would not be as bad for the body as other energy drinks. Why did it take so long for them to make a drink that has glucose as its main sugar if it has so many benefits?
