GNC Herbal Plus® Bitter Melon Extract, Bitter Cucumber Extract
Bitter melon ( Momordica charantia ) is a vine native to India and other Asian countries and is closely related to zucchini, squash, Turkish squash and cucumbers. It was traditionally used to treat diabetes.
Bitter melon contains a chemical that acts like insulin to help lower blood glucose levels.
Bitter melon is a good source of vitamins such as vitamin C, folic acid and vitamin A. In addition, it contains catechins, gallic acid, epicatechin and chlorogenic acid, powerful antioxidant compounds that can help protect cells against degeneration.
Bitter melon improves the way glucose is used in tissues and promotes the secretion of insulin, the hormone responsible for regulating blood glucose levels. It has also been shown to improve several markers of long-term glycemic control, including fructosamine and glycosylated hemoglobin levels.
