as ATP fueled reactions and
pancreatic insulin secretion
(90,91).

pressure, fasting glucose,
triglycerides, and healthy HDL
levels (90,91).

and adaptive immune system
(172,173).

(172,173).
Manganese
*
Supports enzymatic antioxidant
reactions, increased bone mineral
density, and blood sugar regulation
(148,149).
Chromium
*
Supports insulin function, reduced
cholesterol, improved blood sugar
regulation, and may lower
cholesterol (218,219).
Banaba Leaf
*
Supports reduced blood sugar,
reduced inflammation, reduced
thrombosis (clot production),
reduced LDL cholesterol, and
increased HDL cholesterol (237,238).
* Reduces inflammation via reduction
of oxides LDL (ox-LDL) which
decreases the risk of developing
insulin resistance (237,238).
* Combats thrombosis via reduced
levels of intracellular adhesion
molecules (237,238).
* Increases HDL cholesterol via
increased lecithin-cholesterol
acyltransferase activity (an enzyme
associated with HDL production)
(237,238).
Guggul
*
Supports healthy detoxification.
Bitter Melon
*
Reduces blood sugar levels, improves
insulin sensitivity, reduces
inflammation, increases HDL
cholesterol, reduces LDL
cholesterol, and may combat
carcinogenesis (235,236)
* Improves insulin sensitivity via
increased glucose uptake by GLUT-4
vesicles (cells that transport
glucose into cells) and improved
pancreatic beta cell production of
insulin (236).
* May inhibit cancer cell growth by
inducing apoptosis, cell cycle
arrest, autophagy and inhibiting
cancer stem cells (235).
Licorice Root
*
Supports anti-inflammatory,
anti-allergenic, and antimicrobial
properties (177).
Cinnamon Bark
*
Supports blood sugar regulation and
cardiovascular health (166).
* Decreases levels of fasting plasma
glucose, total cholesterol, LDL-C,
triglyceride levels, and an increase
in HDL-C levels (166).
* Supports blood sugar regulation by
improving insulin sensitivity and
enhanced glucose uptake (166).
Yarrow Flowers Powder
*
Supports antioxidant function and
combats inflammation (239).
* Supports antioxidant function via
high contents of Apigenin (flavonoid)
which scavenges free radicals and
combats inflammatory cytokines
(239).
Cayenne Pepper
*
Combats diarrhea, cramps, and muscle
inflammation (176).
* Decreases muscle soreness and
increases muscle strength (177).
Juniper Berry
*
Supports urinary health and
antioxidant function (240).
White Mulberry Leaf
*

antioxidant function, and may combat
cardiometabolic disease (241).
* Supports cardiovascular health via
reduced blood pressure, reduced
atherosclerosis activity, and
reduced inflammation (241).
* Supports antioxidant function via
high levels of 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ),
phenolics and flavonoids (241).
Vanadium/ Vanadyl Sulfate
