Healthy Glucose (30-day supply) $27.99 New Discovery for Lower Blood Sugar My New Healthy Glucose : – Significantly reduces blood glucose and A1c levels – Promotes normal triglyceride and LDL cholesterol levels – Enhances glucose transport in your body – Increases insulin sensitivity and efficiency Scientists struck gold with the discovery of touchi a traditional Chinese food that is made by steaming and fermenting soybeans with Aspergillus fungus (koji). The research on touchi was so impressive it led me to develop of my new Healthy Glucose formula. Clinical Studies Show Significant Results In 2 randomized placebo-controlled studies participants were given 900 mg of touchi extract a day for six months. Participants taking touchi experienced reduced blood glucose and triglyceride levels after just one month. Better yet after six months participants saw a significant reduction in their fasting blood glucose A1c and triglyceride levels. I’ve put the full research dose of 900 mg of touchi in my new Healthy Glucose. More Tried-and-True Nutrients for Optimal Blood Sugar Health 1. Cinnamon . I’ve referred to cinnamon for years as the poor man’s remedy because it’s so effective at lowering your blood sugar. Research shows that 1000 mg of cinnamon daily helps maintain normal serum glucose triglyceride and total and LDL cholesterol levels and that’s the exact amount you get in Healthy Glucose . 2. Chromium . This essential trace element is critical for normal fat and carbohydrate metabolism and glucose tolerance . Research at 200 mcg shows that chromium supplementation helps promote insulin efficiency and maintains blood glucose more quickly. Chromium also increases the number of binding sites on cells for insulin to promote better transport of glucose into your cells for energy. I’ve given you the full research dose in Healthy Glucose . 3. Vitamin D . This nutrient is needed to help your body process sugar. Preliminary research has also demonstrated that the odds of having metabolic syndrome increase as blood levels of vitamin D decrease. |
