Origins
Gymnema is a climbing plant from India, used for centuries in Ayurveda. MedlinePlus summarizes its traditional uses for blood sugar and weight, and its safety information.
Why under the tongue helps
Gymnemic acids attach to the sweet receptors on the tongue for a while, so sugar tastes flat. With most supplements, capsules skip the tongue entirely. Sugar Defender Pro's drops are held under the tongue for 30 seconds, giving gymnema contact with the mouth. See under-the-tongue dosing.
Try Sugar Defender Pro risk-free. $49 a bottle on the 6-pack (you save $780) or $69 on the 3-pack. Both ship free in the US with 2 free e-books, and every order has a 60-day money-back guarantee.
Check Today’s PriceResearch
A 2021 systematic review and meta-analysis pooled clinical trials of gymnema and glycemic control, and a 2019 review covers its compounds. The official site credits gymnema with supporting healthy heart and blood sugar levels.
Safety
Because gymnema may lower blood sugar, people on diabetes medicine should talk to their doctor first (NCCIH).
Gymnema's teammates
In Sugar Defender Pro, gymnema works with chromium and Panax ginseng for glucose support, and with eleuthero and maca for energy. See gymnema benefits and all ingredients.
