Gymnema – Organic

G.sylvestra is an Ayruvedic (Indian herbal medicine) herb that has been used for centuries as a “sugar destroyer”. Gymnema has the ability to switch the sweet taste buds off, thus greatly reducing the craving for sweets. As well as that it also inhibts the absorption of sugar molecules in the intestines during digestion, reducing increases in blood sugar levels. When our blood sugar levels are higher or lower than normal that is when our body craves foods and we tend to overeat. In the absence of sweetness, it has been found people eat less sugary food but also helps control appetite and food volume as well.

Following is some of the many health conditions Gymnema sylvestra has been reported to have benefit:

Circulatory disorders, constipation, cough, diabetes, fever, kidney & bladder infections, liver disorders, malaria, snakebites, stomach disorders, swollen glands & weight loss.
