What Is Gymnema Sylvestre And Can It Help Me Lose Weight?
by Bill Herren
Search the ingredients list of most of the natural weight loss supplements today and you will undoubtedly find the ingredient Gymnema Sylvestre. Gymnema Sylvestre has some properties which makes it interesting to anyone wanting to lose weight. Some people in the weight loss world have started referring to Gymnema Sylvestre as the “sugar destroyer”.
Gymnema Sylvestre is a woody plant known for climbing that grows in the rain forests of central and southern India. The plant has been said to have been used in India for diabetes treatment for the past 2000 years. It appears that Gymnema Sylvestre helps regulate blood sugar and the metabolism of glucose.
So what
does Gymnema Sylvestre do for dieters? It seems that this woody plant has the ability to reduce and alter the taste of sugar. So in other words, when you chew the plant or drink the tea you lose your ability to taste sweetness. Manufacturers of diet pills claim that the ingredient in a pill will reduce sugar cravings but I could find no studies to prove that claim. Perhaps there will be studies in the future to validate this claim. Some studies have been done that suggest Gymnema Sylvestre may help regulate blood sugar which could be beneficial to dieters. If true – this would make Gymnema Sylvestre a very powerful addition to your weight loss supplements
arsenal.
Gymnema Sylvestre may be of interest to you if you are diabetic or if you tend to binge on sweets. Perhaps when you recognize a sweet binge coming on you could drink some Gymnema Sylvestre tea or place some powder on your tongue. I found Gymnema Sylvestre available in tea, powders, and capsules. Purchase a reputable brand from a reputable online dealer. Do not take Gymnema Sylvestre without checking with your physician first.
