Health Information: A herbal combination containing the following herbs: Nopal leaves (Opuntia), Bilberry leaves, Fenugreek seed extract, Bitter melon extract, Gymnema extract, GTF chromium, caromix (carotenoids). Nopal has been shown to lower blood glucose and insulin levels in diabetics and is believed to improve insulin's efficiency in moving glucose from the blood into the cells. Bilberry helps protect veins against the ravaging effects of free radicals that may be associated with hyperglycaemia and also helps protect against cataracts, which are common with diabetes. Fenugreek seed reduces fasting blood glucose levels, LDL and VLDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels in type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients. Bitter Melon fruit provides a number of active constituents that support the normalization of blood sugar levels. Gymnema has been used for centuries in India to lower blood sugar. Clinical trials for both type 1 and type 2 diabetics show a significant reduction of blood sugar. GTF Chromium is a key element that helps process the sugars in our diet and is thought to facilitate the binding of insulin to cell membranes. Vitamin A protects against the degeneration of tissue associated to diabetes which can lead to heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, serious neuritis and even gangrene. Cinnamon bark has been added to this formula, as recent studies have confirmed the blood glucose controlling action of cinnamon. Animal research has established that certain constituents in cinnamon can lower blood sugar by up to 20%. Unlike insulin medication which have a free radical like tissue damaging effect, cinnamon has the synergistic benefits of strong antioxidant activity provided by its high flavonoid content. Many people are also reporting improvements in energy and weight management. This synergistic blend can aid in many aspects of insulin resistance, diabetes and common side effects of these illnesses and their medications.
