Not all sugars are created equal, which matters when it comes to your health. Here's the difference between sucrose, glucose and fructose.

It can be extracted from these natural sources and concentrated in processed foods. The sweet-tasting molecules in sucrose (table sugar) are glucose and fructose. Sucrose is a disaccharide.

They’re made up of single or paired molecules known as monosaccharides (glucose, fructose, and galactose) and disaccharides (sucrose, lactose, and maltose), respectively.

It is a natural alpha-linked disaccharide formed by an alpha, alpha-1, 1-glucoside bond between two alpha-glucose units.

Sucrose is a disaccharide. This is a molecule made of two simple sugars – glucose and fructose – in a 1:1 ratio and chemically bound. Sucrose is used in many processed foods.

While remaining majority-owned by Alpha MOS, BOYDSense thus acquires the means to pursue autonomously the development of its non-invasive glucose monitoring device for people with diabetes.
