Gymnema 4:1 Concentrate
Gymnema is documented as being useful to support sugar cravings, weight loss, as a digestive stimulant, bowel elimination, appetite suppressant, and diuretic.
Gymnema has recently become well known for its ability to suppress the desire for sweet food. Its Hindi name, ‘Gurmar’, means ‘sugar destroyer’. It inhibits the taste of sugar, as well as blocking up to 50% of the absorption of sugar. Gymnema also seems to increase the release of insulin by the body. It may also be of benefit in other digestive disorders and other diseases affected by sugar use.
Preparation
