Ingredients (per one capsule):
- – White mulberry (Morus alba L.) leaves standardized d.e. 250 mg
Properties
- – Reduces post-prandial glycemic response and glycemic index of carbohydrate-rich foods.
- – Inhibits α-glucosidase enzymes, slowing carbohydrate breakdown into glucose.
- – Decreases post-meal glucose and insulin peaks (≈40% reduction demonstrated in clinical trials).
- – Improves endothelial function and reduces oxidative stress related to glycemic fluctuations.
- – Supports weight management by promoting satiety and reducing appetite.
- – Maintains ketosis during ketogenic diets by minimizing carbohydrate absorption.
- – Prebiotic activity: undigested carbohydrates promote beneficial gut flora and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production (acetate, propionate, butyrate).
Indications
1- Prediabetes – helps manage early glucose intolerance.
2- Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus – adjunct to oral antidiabetic therapy for better postprandial control.
3- Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus – complement to insulin therapy, improving Time in Range.
4- Ketogenic diets – reduces carbohydrate absorption to maintain ketosis.
5- Weight management and metabolic support – due to its satiety and insulin-sensitizing effects.
6- as adjuvant in the management of Dumping Syndrome, especially the late hypoglycemic type, by slowing carbohydrate absorption and stabilizing postprandial glucose peaks.
Directions
- – Take 1 capsule 10 minutes before main meals, up to 3 times daily.
- – May be taken before mixed meals (containing carbohydrates, proteins, and fats).
- – Do not exceed the recommended dose.
- – Suitable for long-term use; fully tolerated with no hypoglycemia risk.
