• Resveratrol: Resveratrol, a ployphenolic compound, is found primarily in red wine and red grape skins. In a now-famous recent Harvard study, mice fed resveratrol were reported over time to be thinner and ier with increased life-spans..
• Quercetin: Nature's most important bioflavonoid, Quercetin supports a normal digestive and immune system. Each of Glycoscia supplies a full 50 mg of Resveratrol, providing 50% trans-resveratrol compounds..
• Red Sage Root: Used traditionally in Chinese medicine, recent research in the West confirms Salvia's importance in supporting y cardiovascular and liver function..
• Maitake Mushroom: Adaptogen considered to be ""The King of Mushrooms."" Research suggests that Maitake appears to maintain blood sugar levels that are already in the normal range..

Glycoscia is an innovative, one-of-a-kind ceutical formula designed by Dr. Peter D'Adamo as an aid to , the maintenance of blood sugar levels already in the normal range, and the overall enhancement of a y sm. Originally developed for use in his clinic, the key ingredient in Glycoscia is the Salacia reticulata, a traditional that has been used for thousands of years in medicine, in addition to four other synergistic co-factors.Modern research has shown that Salacia plays an important role in supporting natural carbohydrate sm. When we consume sugars and starches, a very small a is broken down by the enzymes in our saliva. However, by far the greater a is zed in the small intestines, where the assimilated sugar can either be utilized immediately for the production of energy, or saved as for later use. One of the ways this is controlled is via special hormones within the cell called PPARs (Pee-Pars). The best studied of the PPARs is called PPAR-gamma (PPARG). PPARG is a key regulator of ty storage and glucose sm; sort of like a traffic man, directing vehicles in either of two directions: 'burn carbs' or 'store '. Studies have shown that Salacia root exerts a ful effect on PPARG, helping to maintain and balance its normal, optimal function. In addition, in certain individuals, sometimes called 'hyper-assimilators,' a percentage of the undigested carbohydrate from a meal will reach the lower intestine and be broken down into simple sugars, which will then also be assimilated and either stored as or burned as energy. These individuals are known to have higher levels of a class of enzymes called glycosidases. Salacia has been shown to help insure normal, y levels of this enzyme, especially when combined with a sensible diet and exercise program.
