CONCLUSION

A simple sugar called glucose is frequently employed as a source of energy in a wide range of applications. It is regarded as a low-hazard substance and is not anticipated to harm health. If ingested in large quantities, it could, however, result in diarrhoea, gas, or stomach pain. It is important to always employ safe handling techniques & safety precautions when using, storing, and disposing of glucose. It is crucial to store it somewhere cold and dry, out of the way of kids and pets, and away from heat sources like the sun.
