Glucose syrup is a substance primarily used
in commercial food production as a
sweetener, thickener, and
moisture-retaining agent.
As it doesn't crystallize, it's often utilized to
make candy, beer, fondant, and certain
canned and premade baked goods.
Glucose syrup is often used as part of the mixture that goes into creating fake blood for films and television. Blood mixtures that contain glucose syrup are very popular among independent films and film makers, as it is cheap and easy to obtain.

What you have made is NOT Glucose!
You have instead made an invert sugar syrup, which contains the same ratio of Glucose to Fructose as does Sucrose.
The only difference is that the Glucose and Fructose molecules are no longer bound together, thanks to the acid and heat.
By the way, invert sugar is metabolized much faster than Sucrose because the Glucose and Fructose molecules are independently metabolized.
This is similar to the way High Fructose Corn Syrup is metabolized but slightly slower because HFCS has a higher Fructose-to-Glucose ratio, and your body metabolizes Fructose faster than it does Glucose.
This means your Blood Glucose measurement skyrockets when you eat invert sugar, but the invert sugar rocket lags behind HFCS rocket by a small margin.
Pay attention, diabetics.
Please stop calling this "Glucose."
