A simple sugar used by cells for energy—unlike fructose, glucose is regulated by insulin and supports ATP production.
Unlike glucose, which is tightly regulated and used for immediate energy, fructose bypasses those controls. It floods the liver, creates fat, generates uric acid, and depletes cellular energy—ultimately impairing how your body handles glucose itself.
SugarShield doesn’t block glucose; it supports your body’s ability to use it properly—by addressing the hidden friction caused by excess fructose metabolism. It’s the missing link for those managing blood sugar, energy, and long-term metabolic health.
Glucose is a monosaccharide and the body's preferred fuel source. It circulates in the blood and is taken up by cells in response to the hormone insulin.
- Provides energy (ATP)
- Supports brain and muscle function
- Triggers insulin signaling
- Can be stored as glycogen
Unlike fructose, glucose is tightly regulated:
- It raises insulin, which acts as a metabolic brake
- It enters cells with oversight
- It fuels, rather than drains, mitochondria
Fructose, by contrast, bypasses insulin and gets converted into fat and uric acid—leading to energy loss and inflammation.
Glucose is often demonized alongside sugar, but it behaves very differently in the body. Understanding this distinction is critical to fixing metabolic confusion.
At LIV3, we clarify that the goal isn't to fear glucose—but to prevent it from being converted into fructose, especially through the endogenous polyol pathway."
Scientists have successfully restored the lost uricase enzyme, a key breakthrough in combating fructose-induced fat formation. This discovery offers new hope for preventing obesity and metabolic disorders by targeting how the body processes sugar and stores fat.
Fructose intolerance isn’t just a gut issue—it’s an energy problem. This article explains how limited fructose absorption in the intestine and excess cellular metabolism of fructose are two sides of the same process, and how restoring fructose metabolism can repair both gut and metabolic health.
Perimenopause can disrupt metabolism, and fructose may make it worse. This blog uncovers how fructose affects hormonal balance, weight gain, and energy—and how to support your body naturally.
Luteolin is a rare plant flavonoid shown to naturally quiet the fructose pathway—the same metabolic switch targeted by pharmaceutical fructokinase inhibitors. By protecting cellular energy and lowering uric acid and inflammation, it helps restore the stable, high-efficiency metabolism that modern diets have lost.
