A study at the" Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology"  offers groundbreaking news that taking cinnamon supplements for blood sugar may play a critical role in the support of normal blood sugar levels. The fact that cinnamon helps glucose levels in the blood return to normal more quickly is a huge benefit to consider for anyone who is dealing with the symptoms of higher than normal blood sugar levels.​ Besides lowering the blood sugar levels, studies have demonstrated that Cinnamon has  anti microbial, anti inflammatory, cardiovascular and digestive benefits.

Chromium: It is a mineral that serves several important functions in the body. Several studies have indicated that taking chromium supplements helps support proper insulin function also helps maintain healthy blood sugar. 

Magnesium:  is a mineral found in the earth, sea, plants, animals and humans. It is involved in Hundreds of Biochemical Reactions in one's Body. Supports insulin function & heart health​.

Berberine bark extract: Berberine is a plant extract that has been used in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine for over 2,500 years for its vast range of health-promoting properties. It is clinically shown to help support normal blood sugar levels and enhance sugar uptake from the blood into the muscles. A recent study using 500 mg of berberine showed berberine’s powerful effect on specific cardiovascular markers including LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. The main mechanism of action underlying berberine’s impact on human health is probably its action on the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation.This enzyme (AMPK) acts as the central energy regulatory control switch regulating how energy is produced and used in the body. AMPK regulates an array of biological activities that normalize lipid, glucose, and energy imbalances. These applications related to adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation explains berberine’s possible therapeutic use in metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and dyslipdemia.

Gymnema sylvestre: is a plant well known in Ayurvedic medicine for its medicinal purposes.
