Products[edit]
GlucoDown®[edit]
GlucoDown® is a nutritional beverage that is enriched with a special form of soluble fiber. Clinical data indicates that this fiber can reduce the body's metabolism of dietary sugars. In this way, GlucoDown® may help to moderate increases in blood glucose levels after meals. GlucoDown® is also enriched with a special form of soluble fiber that clinical data suggests can reduce the body's metabolism of dietary sugars and fats. As a result, GlucoDown® may help to moderate increases in blood sugar after meals, as well as lipids such as cholesterol and triglycerides. Additionally, GlucoDown® may contribute to gut and digestive health. It is recommended to drink GlucoDown® before or with all meals and instead of snacks.[2]
All eight GlucoDown® drink mixes are surprisingly delicious, but are formulated with no sugar (and no added sugar) and 100% natural flavors. In addition to being diabetic-friendly, GlucoDown® drink mixes are suitable for carbohydrate-restricted diets, such as keto. Each serving of GlucoDown® has less than 10 calories. GlucoDown® is also caffeine-free (the tea mixes are decaffeinated) and gluten-free. The physiological impacts of the ingredients in GlucoDown® have been investigated in clinical studies published in scientific journals archived on the US National Library of Medicine website, curated by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), or in research papers published by other credible sources such as the American Diabetic Association and the American Heart Association.[2]
