sukh sugar control powder

1. Primary Objective: To provide nutritional support for the maintenance of healthy blood glucose levels through multi-targeted mechanisms of action, focusing on insulin mimetic activity, peripheral glucose utilization, and carbohydrate metabolism modulation. 2. Core Active Ingredient Matrix & Pharmacological Actions: Gymnema Sylvestre Extract (Standardized for Gymnemic Acids): Mechanism: Gymnemic acids bind to sugar receptors on the intestinal epithelium (villi), competitively inhibiting glucose absorption. Additionally, it exhibits pancreatic β-cell regenerative properties and enhances insulin secretion. Role in Formulation: Primary agent for reducing carbohydrate uptake and curbing sugar cravings. Cinnamon Bark Extract (Cinnamomum verum, standardized): Mechanism: Mimics insulin activity by activating insulin receptor kinases, promoting glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation to cell membranes, thereby increasing cellular glucose uptake. Also inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis. Role: Improves insulin sensitivity at the cellular level. Chromium Picolinate: Mechanism: This essential trace mineral potentiates the action of insulin by facilitating the insulin receptor signaling cascade. It is a key component of Chromodulin, a biomolecule that amplifies insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity. Role: Co-factor for optimal insulin function and macronutrient metabolism. Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA): Mechanism: A potent universal antioxidant that enhances insulin-stimulated glucose disposal. It activates the AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase) pathway, promoting non-insulin-mediated glucose uptake into skeletal muscle. Role: Addresses oxidative stress associated with metabolic imbalances and supports peripheral glucose utilization. Supportive Botanicals (Typical in such blends): May include Fenugreek (soluble fiber delays gastric emptying), Bitter Melon (contains charantin with insulin-like effects), and Magnesium (cofactor for enzymatic reactions in glucose metabolism).
