As a nation we are addicted to sugar. The average person consumes their body weight in sugar each year. That's a long way from 1915, when the national average of sugar consumption was around 15 to 20 pounds per person. Large consumption of simple sugars as well as high glycemic foods (fruits, breads and cereals) break down into glucose hitting the blood stream rather quickly spiking blood sugar levels. It's this constant spike in glucose which leads to insulin resistance, a condition in which the hormone insulin becomes less effective at lowering glucose (blood sugars). Elevated glucose levels over prolonged periods of time may lead to Type 2 Diabetes. Secondary symptoms include weight gain, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, nerve, kidney and vision problems.
Sugar Balance supports the islet cells (hormone producing cells) of the pancreas and may help improve the release of insulin thereby lowering levels of blood sugar. Sugar Balance may also increase the number and activity of insulin receptors. Sugar Balance includes time tested natural ingredients such as Bitter Melon, Quercetin, Goats Rue, and Cinnamon which can improve glucose tolerance and help the body process blood sugars.
Quercetin - a bioflavanoid found in many fruits and vegetables that may improve functioning of the islet cells of the pancreas thereby improving the release of insulin and help prevent complications associated with diabetes.
Bitter Melon - a tropical fruit that resembles a bumpy cucumber in physical appearance and has been used to improve the body's ability to use blood sugar and improve glucose tolerance, the body's ability to get blood sugar into the cells.
Goats Rue - an herb found in the Legume family that has been associated with helping lower elevated glucose levels due to it's Galegine content.
N-Acetyl Cysteine (N-A-C) - a reduced form of the amino acid cysteine and an important factor in the body's ability to produce one of the most important antioxidants, glutathione. N-A-C may help prevent damage to Beta Cells in the pancreas due its antioxidant effects.
Cinnamon - a spice that, though its compound MHCP (methylhydroxychalcone polymer), mimics the biological function of insulin while enhancing the effects of insulin at the same time.
Vanadyl Sulfate - a essential micromineral found in trace amounts in the body. Studies show that Vanadyl Sulfate may lower blood sugar in Type 2 Diabetes, stabilize blood sugar levels and decrease insulin resistance.
Purchase Sugar Balance
Take 2-Sugar Balance before meals to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels. If blood sugar remains elevated during the night you may also take two before bed.
