glucose

Biosensors measure a cyclist’s glucose to help optimize fuel levels.

During a follow-up visit with his doctor, he learned he had dangerously high blood glucose levels and was readmitted.

He started to focus less on blood glucose and more on making sure his patients could eat their soup before it cooled.

Only certain molecules such as iron and glucose are “escorted” in by a special protein called transferrin, while all others are actively transported out.

This matters because over time, higher levels of sugar consumption will erode the body’s ability to successfully control blood glucose levels, a process that can begin in childhood.

The researchers found that the fake stuff drives the kind of glucose intolerance that can lead to diabetes in human.

The fix: Get a fasting glucose test during your routine screenings, suggests Dr. Rindfleisch.

The cells in your body run on glucose from sugar and ketones from fat.

In Willpower, Baumeister and Tierney convincingly describe another addendum: willpower depends on glucose as an energy source.

Dieting, as the glucose breakthrough reveals, provides an especially tricky test of willpower.

It behaves the same as glucose with all the ordinary tests, and can be distinguished only by polarization.

A portion of the water solution was heated with glucose and a few drops of sodium hydroxide.

One of the commonest adulterations is the substitution of grape sugar (glucose) for cane sugar.

Sugar may also be made from any form of starch; this is glucose, which is put up in cans and sold as an imitation of maple syrup.

But in all artificially colored vinegars, spirit sugar and glucose vinegars, the sodium flame predominates.
