Craving Support

Gymnema Sylvestre

Known traditionally as the 'sugar destroyer,' used to support healthy glucose levels and reduce sugar cravings.

What Is Gymnema Sylvestre?

Gymnema Sylvestre is a woody climbing plant native to India, traditionally nicknamed the 'sugar destroyer' in Ayurvedic medicine.

Its Role In The GL-Defend Formula

It supports GL-Defend's craving layer, traditionally used to reduce the taste and desire for sweet foods.

What The Research Says

Research has examined Gymnema's relationship to sugar absorption in the gut and its traditional association with reduced sugar cravings.

Worth knowing: Its traditional nickname reflects centuries of use specifically for sugar-related support, distinct from its other traditional applications.

This describes general research on Gymnema Sylvestre itself, not the finished GL-Defend product, which hasn't been the subject of its own clinical trial. See the full ingredients list or the formula overview for more.
