Overview

Gains Candy Glucovantage contains GlucoVantage® (Dihydroberberine), a form of berberine with enhanced bioavailability. While preliminary studies show promise in improving glucose and insulin levels, the product contains only one active ingredient, and its overall effectiveness relies heavily on the single ingredient's efficacy at the provided dosage.

The Good

Utilizes a more bioavailable form of berberine (Dihydroberberine) which may lead to better absorption and reduced gastric distress compared to standard berberine.

Aids in glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity, which supports blood sugar management.

May indirectly assist with body composition goals by optimizing nutrient partitioning.

The Bad

Contains artificial colorants (FD&C Yellow #5, FD&C Red #40) which are unnecessary and have potential health concerns, especially with chronic intake.

Includes Titanium Dioxide as an excipient, which has controversial safety data regarding potential genotoxicity and gut microbiota disruption in some forms.

Relies on a single active ingredient for its primary benefits, which may not offer comprehensive support for all aspects of glucose metabolism.

Is it for you?

Best For: Individuals looking to optimize glucose metabolism, athletes, those on a bulking or cutting phase

Skip If: You are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition, or are taking blood sugar-lowering medication without consulting a doctor.
