Short Romanian-language health explainer (YouTube) by Mihail Pautov describing how the body metabolizes dietary sugars: the body uses only glucose directly for energy, other monosaccharides (notably fructose) are taken up by the liver and converted into glucose, so dietary sugars (e.g., sucrose: ~50% glucose, 50% fructose) become glucose in the bloodstream — explaining why blood glucose (glicemia) is commonly measured.
