Gymnema Sylvestre CapsulesThe Sugar DestroyerThe Latin name Gymnema Sylvestre means "sugar destroyer" and is considered an herbal remedy for high blood sugar. Traditionally it was recommended for stomach problems, constipation, water retention and liver disease although modern research centers around it use for type II diabetes. Gymnema has been clinically proven to reduce excessively high blood sugar levels, perhaps as a result of boosting the production of insulin required to process sugar. It was the focus of a diet fad in the late 80s and 90s. Chewing the leaves or sprinkling Gymnema powder on your tongue can desensitize your taste buds to the taste of sweetness. It became know as the "Sugar Buster" and was taken to help people curb their craving for sugar in the hopes of decreasing the caloric consumption. Although gymnema has been shown to successfully control blood sugar levels, diabetes is a serious life threatening disease that can result in heart disease, kidney failure, blindness and loss of limbs. You should seek qualified medical advise on treatment and discuss with your health care provider the advantages of including gymnema in your particular treatment program. Additionally, despite research showing no known medical conditions to preclude the use of gymnema and no reported drug interactions, pregnant or breast feeding women should avoid its use without consulting their health care professional.
