Gymnema Sylvestre Extract with Pullulan 30 capsules: K

Controls our Sugar Cravings!* Natrol's Gymnema Sylvestre, an herb with a centuries old medicinal tradition, is provided in the most desirable form, a pure 5:1 extract. Pullulan, a polysaccharide, synergistically enhances the effects of Gymnema Sylvestre.* Gymnema Sylvestre has been traditionally used to suppress the sensation of sweetness. Gymnema principal uses in ayurvedic medicine are for hypoglycemic activity, treatment of type 2 diabetes, reduces blood glucose levels, may inhibit the process of insulin activation, reduces and normalizes plasma lipids, normalizes blood sugar levels, and enhances endogenous insulin production. Gymnema sylvestre is a woody, climbing plant, native to India, where it is called Shardunikha. Chewing the leaves destroys the ability to discriminate the 'sweet' taste, giving it its common name, gurmar, or 'sugar destroyer.' Clinical tests showed that regular use over a period of three to four months helped to reduce glycosuria, or the appearance of carbohydrates in urine. Recent clinical trials conducted in India have shown that an extract of Gymnema sylvestre is useful for controling blood sugar levels. Both animal and human studies have shown Gymnema to increase urine output and reduce hyperglycemia. Gymnema has been demonstrated to work in multiple ways. It raises insulin levels, apparently by helping to regenerate cells in the pancreas that secrete insulin. Gymnema also improves the uptake of glucose into cells, thus preventing adrenaline from stimulating the liver to produce glucose. Gymnema also significantly reduces the metabolic effects of sugar by preventing the intestines from absorbing the sugar molecules during the process of digestion. Gymnema cannot be used in place of insulin for type 1 or type 2 diabetes, but has been successfully used as a supplemental therapy to help control blood sugar levels by both groups.
