All sugars are not created equal.
A simple monosaccharide sugar affects blood glucose rapidly. Glutose 15 delivers 15 grams of pure glucose (dextrose).
Glucose vs. Sucrose (table sugar)
Sucrose is 50% glucose and 50% fructose. Fructose has a lesser and slower affect on blood glucose. 30 grams of sucrose would initially provide 15 grams of glucose.
Glucose vs. Orange Juice
While it may vary, 6 ounces of juice will deliver about 17 grams of sugars, which is good, but it's not glucose. Glutose 15 delivers 15 grams of glucose.
Candies and Milk
Candies and milk that contain various amounts of fat slow digestion and thus slow the absorption of sugars. These complex sugars do not contain glucose.
Chewing, Counting or Measuring
Glutose 15 eliminates counting or measuring and delivers a consistent amount of glucose, 15 grams.
