Glucon-D — DUMP

Munch or Dump rates Glucon-D by zydus wellness products ltd DUMP — score 20/90.

This is 99.4% glucose - basically pure sugar dressed up as a health drink. A pinch of vitamin D and calcium doesn't change the fact that you're drinking straight sugar.

Why this verdict

• 99.4% glucose - this is essentially pure refined sugar in powder form
• Causes a fast blood-sugar spike and crash with nothing to buffer it
• Zero fiber, zero protein - empty calories that don't keep you full
• Token vitamin D and calcium are added so it can pose as a 'health drink'
• NOVA group 4: an ultra-processed formulated sugar product

Ingredients (3)

• Glucose (dextrose) (concerning) — Refined glucose at 99.4% of the product - spikes blood sugar fast, no fiber or protein to slow it, pure empty calories.
• Minerals (calcium phosphates) (safe) — Added calcium and phosphorus for a bone-health angle, but the amount is small and doesn't offset the sugar load.
• vitamin D (safe) — Vitamin D2 added to support the 'immunity' marketing; a real nutrient but a token amount on a sugar base.
