Glucorest

Glucorest is a better approach to help blunt the glycemic response to meals.

Eating a low-glycemic diet can be challenging. That’s why there’s Glucorest, a formula containing the ingredient touchi extract which has a documented safety and efficacy profile. Emerging clinical studies suggest that in certain populations touchi extract taken before meals helps blunt the glycemic response and supports healthy glucose and triglyceride metabolism—without reported adverse effects.

Touchi extract has been shown in laboratory studies to:

• Inhibit α-glucosidase—an enzyme responsible for the breakdown of carbohydrates into simpler sugars.
• Slow the metabolism of certain sugars

No reported adverse effects in clinical studies

No complaints of abdominal distension or other gastrointestinal discomforts.

No significant changes in tested biochemical parameters.
