What is Dextrose monohydrate(DMH)?
DMH is a white granular monosaccharide.  It is obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of starch to dextrose and subsequent purification and crystallization from solution.  It is sweet in taste, free from foreign flavour and finds wide applications due to its inherent quality of being an instant energy source.  DMH does not require conversion before assimilation into the human system and is, therefore, very popular in the pharmaceutical and energy products.
