Pure Organic Gymnema Sylvestre — 700 mg
Traditionally known as Gurmar, meaning “destroyer of sugar”
Gymnema sylvestre is an extensively studied Ayurvedic herb backed by 30 years of scientific research. When taken consistently, its naturally occurring compounds support sweet-taste perception, sugar-craving control, glucose absorption, insulin production, and pancreatic function.
In one laboratory study, Gymnema sylvestre extract increased the expansion of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells by up to 130.3% compared with the untreated control, while also enhancing glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. These findings suggest that Gymnema’s benefits may extend beyond sugar cravings by supporting the pancreatic cells responsible for producing insulin and helping the body process glucose more effectively.
Naturally Occurring Gymnemic Acids
Sweet-taste and glucose support:
Gymnemic acids are naturally occurring compounds found in Gymnema sylvestre. They temporarily interact with sweet-taste receptors, helping sugary foods taste less rewarding and supporting better control over sugar cravings with consistent use.
Gymnemic acids have also been studied for their role in intestinal glucose absorption, helping support healthier fasting and post-meal glucose patterns.
Naturally Occurring Conduritol A
Pancreatic and beta-cell support:
Conduritol A is another naturally occurring compound found in Gymnema sylvestre. It has been studied for its effects on glucose absorption, glucose regulation, and pancreatic function. In animal research, conduritol A was associated with a greater number of insulin-producing beta cells compared with untreated diabetic controls.
Together, Gymnema’s naturally occurring compounds provide more comprehensive support than sweet-taste control alone. While gymnemic acids primarily support sweet-taste and intestinal glucose responses, conduritol A has been studied for its potential role in supporting the pancreas, beta cells, and islets responsible for insulin production.
