Does Alpha PMX contain sugar?
Yes, the carbohydrate content of Alpha ENF was designed to imitate fruits and vegetables which supply a combination of glucose, fructose, and complex carbohydrates – starch and fibers. Glucose is the basic sugar of life. The human body is a glucose-machine just as a car is a gasoline-machine. Each cell in your body consumes sugar as glucose. Glucose (dextrose) supplies 8% of total calories. Fructose supplies 6% of the total calories. Fructose is very similar to glucose but is metabolized by different metabolic pathways. Fructose, for example, does not require insulin for passage into cells as does glucose. Fructose is three times as sweet as glucose. Glucose and fructose should be considered normal vegetable-fruit sugars. The remainder of the carbohydrate is supplied as maltodextrin, a starch derivative which consists of chains of glucose of different lengths. These carbohydrate chains require some digestion and can provide sustained-release glucose, similar to the starches in grains a
