Protocols For Health, Carb Blocker 60 Capsules
Carb Blocker features berberine, a naturally occurring plant alkaloid that supports healthy blood glucose levels, and Carb Blocker, a clinically studied blend of polyphenols derived from sustainably harvested.
Berberine is a plant alkaloid derived from several different plant species that have been used in Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine for a variety of therapeutic applications, including supporting healthy blood glucose metabolism and healthy insulin response. Although research has demonstrated berberine’s effect on blood glucose, the mechanisms through which this effect occurs are not entirely clear. Researchers have hypothesized that the modulation of gut microbes may be one mechanism by which berberine affects blood glucose metabolism. Animal and in vitro studies have suggested that berberine moderates glucose metabolism through a multi-pathway mechanism including AMP-activated protein kinase, the JNK pathway, and the PPAR-alpha pathway. Additionally, berberine has been observed to inhibit the expression of disaccharidases in the duodenum, resulting in less glucose being formed from carbohydrate digestion. Berberine also appears to improve the function of beta cells in the pancreas.*
