  6. Its general chemical formula is C₆H₁₂O₆. Blood glucose, or blood sugar, is the main sugar found in your blood. It is your body's primary source of energy. It comes from the food you eat. Your body breaks down most of that food into glucose and releases it into your bloodstream. a ubiquitous source of energy for every organism in the world and is essential to fuel both aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration.
