Momordica charantia Extract (Bitter Gourd) 250 mgContains a compound that has been found to increase the activity of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), the protein that regulates glucose intake (a process which is impaired in diabetics)Also contains a lectin that has insulin-like activity due to its nonprotein-specific linking together to insulin receptors. This lectin lowers blood glucose concentrations by acting on peripheral tissues and, similar to insulin's effects in the brain, suppressing appetite. This lectin is likely a major contributor to the hypoglycemic effect that develops after eating Bitter GourdIndications :Type 1 DiabetesType 2 DiabetesDosage :2 capsules twice daily after meals.
