White Mulberry Leaf
ProCaps Laboratories
Overview
ProCaps Laboratories White Mulberry Leaf Extract provides a standardized dose of 250 mg White Mulberry Leaf Extract, aimed at supporting healthy blood sugar balance. This dose is slightly below the commonly studied effective range of 280-360 mg daily, which could impact its overall effectiveness for some individuals. While the product is standardized to 1-deoxynojirimycin (1-DNJ), the exact percentage of standardization is not disclosed, which makes it difficult to assess the precise potency and comparability to clinical research. Nevertheless, white mulberry leaf extract generally shows moderate-quality evidence for improving glycemic control.
