The Role of Dextrose in Nutrition, Bodybuilding, and Diabetes

7. Other Uses for Dextrose

Beyond consumables, manufacturers use dextrose in a variety of other products. One of the most common uses is as a cheap sugar supplement for animal feed. It is also an ingredient in many bath, hair, and skin care products thanks to its sweet scent and skin-conditioning properties. Some companies use dextrose in makeup for similar reasons. Perhaps its most interesting use is in rocket propellant for model and homemade rockets.
