Overview

This blend includes several ingredients with documented roles in blood sugar support and general metabolic health. However, a significant number of these, particularly the botanical extracts like Banaba, Bitter Melon, Cinnamon, and Gymnema Sylvestre, are included at dosages far below those shown to be effective in clinical research. While the combination could offer subtle benefits, the underdosing of multiple components likely limits its overall effectiveness for significant blood sugar modulation.

The Good

Contains Chromium, a well-regarded mineral for insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism.

Includes general antioxidant and vitamin support (Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Zinc, Manganese, Biotin, Alpha Lipoic Acid).

Incorporates traditional herbs (Banaba, Bitter Melon, Cinnamon, Gymnema Sylvestre) recognized in some studies for blood sugar support, although at low doses.

The Bad

Many key ingredients are significantly underdosed, reducing potential effectiveness.

Potential for interactions with diabetes medications due to blood sugar lowering claims of several ingredients.

Licorice Extract can cause hypertension and hypokalemia, especially in sensitive individuals or at higher doses.

Is it for you?
