Overview
This supplement combines several vitamins, minerals, and botanicals that are claimed to support glucose metabolism. While a few ingredients like chromium have some evidence for their role in glucose regulation, the overall formula's effectiveness is questionable due to several ingredients being included at low doses, and several others having limited research, as well as a lack of research studies on combinations of specific ingredients in this formula.
The Good

May support glucose metabolism through chromium supplementation.
Certified gluten free and vegan, catering to specific dietary needs and preferences
The Bad
Contains several ingredients with limited human research for glucose control benefits.
