Maple syrup on pancakes, ripe bananas, and soft drinks are all foods that are tasty to us
because of the sugar in them. But did you know there are different kinds of
sugar? One food can have multiple kinds of sugar in it, and our bodies actually process
the different types of sugars differently. In this science project, you will measure the
concentration of two sugars—glucose and sucrose—in different foods, and investigate how
sucrose is converted into glucose with the help…
Do you hate shots? Do you complain about paper cuts? Imagine if you had to give yourself shots a couple of times a day, as well as prick your finger, on purpose, even more frequently. Of course, if you have diabetes you do not have to imagine this; it is your reality. People who have diabetes usually need to keep close track of how much sugar is in their blood (called their blood glucose levels) by testing a drop of blood from a finger prick. If there is too much sugar in their blood, some…
Do you enjoy drinking smoothies packed full of berries and other tasty fruits? Or maybe you like drinking a creamy milkshake with peanut butter, chocolate, and bananas. Smoothies and milkshakes are often tasty to us because of the sugar in them. But did you know there are different kinds of sugar?
