Gymnema is also known for the hypoglycemic (blood sugar-lowering) action of it's leaves. This action is gradual in nature, differing from the rapid effect of many prescription hypoglycemic drugs. Gymnema leaves raise insulin levels by regeneration of the cells in the pancreas that secrete insulin. Other research has shown that gymnema also improves uptake of glucose into cells by increasing the activity of the glucose utilizing enzymes, and prevents adrenaline from stimulating the liver to produce glucose, thereby reducing blood sugar levels. For use with blood sugar issues we recommend you use our Pancreas Aid remedy which contains a good amount of Gymnema Sylvestre. |
