1-Deoxynojirimycin from Morus alba leaf inhibits intestinal alpha glucosidase and reduces postprandial blood glucose: a randomized controlled trial
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2007
Glucose metabolism involves multiple steps carbohydrate digestion, intestinal absorption, cellular uptake, and insulin signaling. GlucoGreen addresses all four in a single capsule. White mulberry leaf extract (2% DNJ) slows intestinal carbohydrate breakdown. Alpha lipoic acid supports cellular glucose uptake and antioxidant protection. Chromium supports insulin signaling. Vanadium supports insulin like activity at the cellular level.
White Mulberry Leaf Extract 200 mg 4:1, QCE 800 mg, 2% 1-deoxynojirimycin
The first step in post-meal glucose absorption is the enzymatic breakdown of complex carbohydrates by alpha glucosidase enzymes in the small intestine. 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) a naturally occurring alkaloid in Morus alba leaf inhibits these enzymes, slowing the conversion of starches and disaccharides into glucose and reducing the rate of glucose absorption after meals. This extract is standardized to 2% DNJ, ensuring consistent bioactive content in every capsule.
DL-Alpha Lipoic Acid 300 mg
Unlike most antioxidants, alpha lipoic acid is both water soluble and fat soluble allowing it to function across cell membranes and in virtually every tissue. It supports insulin sensitivity by activating GLUT4 glucose transporters, which facilitate the movement of glucose from the bloodstream into cells. It also regenerates vitamins C and E and glutathione, providing broad antioxidant protection against oxidative stress generated during glucose metabolism.
Chromium 75 mcg Chromium Chloride
Chromium is an essential trace mineral and a component of chromodulin a molecule that amplifies insulin receptor signaling and supports the body’s normal response to insulin. It plays a role in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Dietary chromium intake is often insufficient, and supplementation supports adequate levels for normal metabolic function.
Vanadium 25 mcg Vanadyl Sulfate
Vanadium is a trace element with documented insulin like activity in supporting cellular glucose uptake. Vanadyl sulfate is the most bioavailable supplemental form and complements the insulin signaling mechanisms of chromium and the cellular uptake support of alpha lipoic acid.
