Gymnema Sylvestre [1] is a perennial vine in India, Africa, and Australia. It has been used in Ayurvedic medicine to suppress the taste of sugar. In fact, in Hindi, gymnema sylvestre translates to “sugar destroyer.” By limiting the taste of sugar, one’s cravings are expected to subside. From a scientific standpoint, only small studies have been conducted, most of which point to the possibility of blocked sugar and fat absorption by the body, thereby positively influencing sugar, cholesterol, and fat levels. Moreover, taking this herb has been proven to increase insulin production, possibly improving glucose uptake.

Biotin [2] is a B vitamin that metabolizes food and converts it into usable energy. A systematic review and meta-analysis on the effect of biotin on blood glucose and lipid levels in patients with type 2 diabetes reported interesting findings. In particular, biotin can potentially lower fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. Pharmacological concentrations of biotin enhanced insulin secretion in this study. While a different study [3] with type 1 diabetic patients reported similar results.

Chromium [4] is a trace element derived from plants and certain food groups. Although evidence has been published, this ingredient has been considered for the purposes of managing diabetes, weight gain, metabolic syndrome, PCOS, and blood cholesterol levels, as noted in one source. In the context of blood sugar, it is generally believed that Chromium is an essential factor in enhancing insulin activity. However, only a few existing studies reported effective results.

Manganese [5] is the next trace element selected for GlucoPure Pro. It contributes to the body’s antioxidant support and can reduce blood sugar levels. A study indicated oral magnesium supplements improve insulin sensitivity and metabolic control in type 2 diabetic subjects.

Licorice root [6] is derived from the Glycyrrhiza glabra or Glycyrrhiza uralensis plants, which have found a place in traditional Eastern and Western medicine. Mainly, this ingredient has been employed to ease inflammation that can further cause health-related issues in mellitus diabetes. Research on blood sugar shows that licorice roots contain amorfrutins with anti-diabetic properties. Amorfrutins contain anti-inflammatory properties. [7], Studies have reported licorice roots to be effective against diabetes mellitus and its complications of dry skin and bad breath and relieving hunger, with significant improvements in blood sugar levels and kidney function. The same goes for potential weight-loss results as well.

Cinnamon [8] is a spice used in sweet, savory dishes and for medicinal purposes. So far, ten studies have reported its ability to provide a “statistically significant” decrease in glucose and lower inflammation and cholesterol levels. In terms of blood sugar, this has been studied in people with prediabetes, possibly improving fasting plasma glucose and glucose tolerance. As with many of the listed ingredients, research on cinnamon’s role in addressing the progression of prediabetes to type 2 diabetes shows that it can improve blood sugar control in people with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.

Zinc [9] is a mineral that acts as a cofactor for hundreds of different enzymes essential for proper bodily functioning. A deficiency in this nutrient has led to several symptoms, including poor immune function and appetite, hair loss, diarrhea, and slow wound healing. Stimulatingly, zinc has been demonstrated to maintain healthy blood sugar levels while improving insulin sensitivity. This mineral might also improve risk factors for heart disease, such as triglyceride and cholesterol levels.

Juniper berries [10] grow on the Juniperus communis evergreen shrub. It is predominantly known for its antioxidant profile, which limits inflammation, free radicals, and markers of metabolic syndrome from worsening. Second, it is said to have antidiabetic properties, as existing studies have proven juniper berries’ efficacy in reducing blood sugar, triglycerides, and bad cholesterol and increasing good cholesterol.

Each serving is said to contain several sleep-enhancing ingredients. These have been selected to ensure that people get enough deep sleep for the body to fully repair itself, especially when it is under a lot of stress. The creators further noted how deep sleep helps balance important hormones and reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes.
