One of the most potent herbs in the Dia-Slim formula for lowering blood
sugar naturally is Gymnema. Gymnema Sylvestre is native to south and
central India and has been used to treat blood sugar issues for nearly
2000 years. In fact, In India, Gymnema is known as the “Sugar Destroyer!”

Interestingly, Gymnema will immediately dissipate the sweet taste in your
mouth after ingesting a sugary food. You can try this with a red grape.
Simply chew up the grape and while the sweet taste is in your mouth,
consume a teaspoon of Dia-Slim. The sweet taste will immediately
evaporate.

This anti-sweet activity of Gymnema is very powerful for those with sugar
cravings. In fact, consuming Dia-Slim at the onset of emotional eating or
when sugar cravings kick in is a great way to obliterate the craving and
relax. Gymnemic acids have been isolated from Gymnema extract and they
seem to play a powerful role in aborting the sweet taste in the mouth.
Patients report that in addition to losing weight with Dia-Slim, their
sugar and carb cravings are radically reduced.

Extracts of Gymnema are not only used to curb a sweet tooth, but the
Gymnema leaves are also used for other problems such as hyperglycemia,
obesity, high cholesterol levels, anemia and digestion issues.

In 2005, a study at King’s College in London revealed that a water-soluble
extract of Gymnema Sylvestre caused reversible increases in intracellular
calcium and insulin secretion in human β-cells without compromising cell
viability. This study suggests that extracts derived from Gymnema
Sylvestre leaves may be useful as therapeutic agents for the stimulation
of insulin secretion in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes.[1]
