What do you get glucose from?

any type of sugar. fruits have fructose (fruit sugar) which your body converts to glucose, any candy or other (sweet) is going to have sugar (sucrose), which your body converts to glucose. so if you eat any plant it's going to have some fructose, fruits are higher in fructose then other plant matter, and anything with sugar gives you sucrose since sugar is sucrose. fructose and sucrose are complex sugars, and glucose is simple sugar.
