Overview

The effectiveness of this supplement for glucose regulation is mixed. While several ingredients like Chromium and Corosolic acid have some evidence for blood sugar support, the doses of some botanical ingredients like French Lilac and Bitter Melon may not be sufficient or their efficacy in supplement form is not well-established. The 'micellized' form suggests enhanced absorption but doesn't guarantee clinical efficacy of the ingredients themselves. The broad blend may offer synergistic effects, but direct human evidence for this specific combination is lacking.

The Good

Includes Chromium at a clinically relevant dose, which has evidence for blood sugar support.

Contains Corosolic acid, a promising ingredient for glucose regulation.

Micellized softgel form suggests enhanced bioavailability and absorption of fat-soluble components.

The Bad

Efficacy of some botanical ingredients (French Lilac, Bitter Melon, Agnus Castus, Huckleberry/Bilberry) at the given doses for glucose regulation is not strongly supported by high-quality human clinical trials.

Potential for interactions with blood sugar-lowering medications, necessitating medical supervision.

Serving size recommends 'two or more softgels with each meal', which could lead to very high total daily intake of certain ingredients depending on the number of meals.
