Allergen Information

No major allergens listed in the ingredients. However, cross-contamination is always a possibility in manufacturing facilities.

Nutritional Summary

The product scores very poorly due to its extremely high sugar content. A single 20g serving contains 18.4g of added sugar, which constitutes 36.8% of the FSSAI's recommended daily allowance. It is essentially sugar powder with flavors, colors, and minimal fortification. The presence of multiple artificial additives, including colors and a sweetener, further lowers its health score.

Healthy Recipe Ideas

Post-Workout Energy Replenisher

Mix 20g (approx. 2 tablespoons) of Glucon-D Mango Blast powder in a glass of 200ml cold water. Stir well until dissolved. Consume immediately after a workout or sports activity.

Health Benefits

Rapidly restores energy levels and helps rehydrate the body after physical exertion.

Summer Electrolyte Cooler

Dissolve 20g of the powder in 200ml of chilled water. Add a pinch of black salt (kala namak) and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Stir well and serve with ice cubes.

Health Benefits

Helps combat dehydration and restores essential minerals lost through sweating in hot weather.

Additive Analysis

The additives are permitted by FSSAI. However, artificial colors like INS 110 and INS 102 are linked to hyperactivity in sensitive children. The combination of extremely high sugar with an artificial sweetener (INS 955) is nutritionally questionable. The overall additive profile is moderate but detracts from the product's health perception.

Marketing Claims

The claim of 'Instant Energy' is factually correct due to the high glucose content. However, the overall marketing, featuring an active family, implies it is a healthy daily beverage, which is misleading given that the product is 92% sugar. While it is fortified, this benefit is overshadowed by the excessive sugar. The disclaimer 'Glucon-D does not contain fruits' is a positive step towards transparency.
