Dextrose is technically another name for glucose, and technically a monosaccharide. Therefore, it would technically be SCD legal. In practice, however, what is marketed as dextrose is often a blend of sugars, including di- and trisaccharides, and is therefore not legal. If you are able to get PURE dextrose, that may be OK. I can tell you that I have often thought that I was OK with something for which the only questionable ingredient was dextrose, only to learn that the bad bacteria in my gut really, really liked it, too. Therefore, I will not use anything which lists dextrose as an ingredient, and I will not use what is sold as dextrose in any SCD recipe. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote
