Bio-Aligned Formula™ Helps Maintain Healthy Blood Sugar Levels When Used As Part of Your Diet Source Naturals Gluco-Science™ is a Bio-Aligned Formula™ that can be used as part of your diet to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels. Alpha-lipoic acid, chromium, and other ingredients support the mediation of insulin release and activity. This Bio-Aligned Formula provides targeted nutrition to five different body systems involved with healthy blood sugar levels and insulin activity. KEY FEATURES -
Helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels. -
Supports glucose/carbohydrate metabolism. -
For insulin/pancreatic activity. -
Supports a healthy heart, circulatory system, nervous system and vision. Gluco-Science™ supports glucose/carbohydrate metabolism with a range of nutrients. B-vitamins are required for glycolysis and the Krebs cycle, the metabolic pathways by which the body converts glucose into cellular energy. Chromium is believed to work closely with insulin to facilitate the uptake of glucose into cells. Manganese is also involved in glucose uptake. The formula also features herbs from several traditions, such as Gymnema sylvestre. Insulin is secreted by the pancreas in response to high blood glucose levels after meals. Without insulin, glucose cannot enter cells to provide fuel for cellular energy. Certain nutrients support these vital metabolic processes, including mediation of insulin release and activity, and enhancing insulin sensitivity. N-acetyl cysteine protects pancreatic beta cells from oxidative damage in animal studies. In addition, vanadium, zinc, and selenium are notable for their insulin-like actions. Vitamin E supports a healthy lipid status, while myricetin has been shown in animal studies to influence triglyceride levels. Gymnema sylvestre and vitamin C are involved with lipid metabolism. Additional heart-healthy ingredients include CoQ10, garlic, fenugreek, and hawthorn. Antioxidants are important for a healthy nervous system. Lipoic acid helps prevent lipid peroxidation, which can impact nerve function. Many B-vitamins are vital to the metabolic processes of the nerves or are present in the phospholipids of cell membranes. Methylcobalamin, an active form of vitamin B-12, supports the central nervous system. Gluco-Science™ provides antioxidants, nutrients and herbs with an affinity for eyes and the physiological processes involved in sight. Alpha-lipoic acid, quercetin, and vitamin C support healthy lens function. Bilberry, shown to support microcirculation in animal studies, is widely recognized for supporting vision. Suggested Use: 1 to 2 tablets, three times daily before meals.
