Blood Glucose Support is an excellent multi-mineral formula with added cinnamon. It is designed to help maintain blood sugar levels. The supplement comprises Ceylon cinnamon and excellent levels of GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) chromium as part of a mineral complex. The formula may also help reduce carbohydrate cravings and can be taken at intervals throughout the day. GTF chromium is now being recognised as important in carbohydrate metabolism and the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels.
- The key active ingredients are GTF chromium, magnesium, zinc, and cinnamon. The plant base naturally comprises additional beneficial minerals, including copper, selenium, and molybdenum.
- Magnesium bisglycinate is added to aid the function of the many magnesium-dependent enzymes. It also supports the efficacy of chromium and is a bio-effective form of magnesium that easily crosses membranes.
- When chromium levels are low in the body, GTF levels are low too and the activity of insulin is blocked - blood glucose levels therefore remain elevated.
- Diets high in refined carbohydrates are usually low in zinc, so this mineral has been added to this formulation
