Blood Sugar Complex - 120 capsules - from Unimedica

An optimised nutritional complex for blood sugar and metabolism

The Blood Sugar Complex from Unimedica is a valuable enrichment for your balanced nutrition with special emphasis on blood sugar levels and metabolism. This is of particular interest for all those who want to keep their weight and blood sugar levels in check, since metabolism, blood sugar and weight management belong together.

Our Blood Sugar Complex combines valuable plant extracts from grapeseeds, cinnamon bark, turmeric, artichoke and reishi with essential minerals as well as coenzyme Q10 and fenugreek.

The chromium in particular supports normal blood sugar levels. Zinc and selenium additionally help to keep key metabolic processes running and protect the cells from oxidative stress.

Selected plant substances and organic co-factors accompany blood sugar management in a natural way

Unimedica's blood sugar complex uses particularly high-quality and bioactive ingredients. Our special Unimedica plant mix N02 with fenugreek seed powder, grape seed extract with 70 % OPC (oligomeric proanthocyanidins, content measured by HPLC), cinnamon extract from the finest Ceylon cinnamon bark from Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon), an extract from the proven medicinal mushroom reishi with polysaccharides, turmeric and artichoke extract complement the blood sugar complex with their beneficial properties.
Minerals, R-alpha lipoic acid, inulin and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) as well as coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone), which is involved in providing energy for the cells, complete the plant mix.

Metabolism as the key to blood sugar management

Chromium in trivalent chloride form supports effective weight management in two ways: Chromium helps to keep blood sugar levels in balance. Chloride supports digestion by forming hydrochloric acid in the stomach (stomach acid). Fenugreek seed powder scores highly with its naturally contained essential oils and micronutrients, which develop their special properties best in conjunction with a meal. In addition, artichoke extract (10:1) provides bitter substances that stimulate the flow of digestive juices and can curb the appetite.

Zinc supports the immune system, carbohydrate and fat metabolism, acid-base balance and protein formation.

MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is an organic sulfur compound that is found in almost all organisms. Sulphur is one of the most important minerals in our body. It plays a role in many processes, including metabolism.

A sophisticated recipe with an energy concept

R-alpha-lipoic acid is a sulphur-containing fatty acid and is native to the body's mitochondria – the power station of the cells. There it supports enzymatic metabolic processes. It is fat-soluble and water-soluble so that it can cross the blood-brain battier.

As a natural fibre that is broken down to propionates, inulin supports the synergistic effect of the Blood Sugar Complex. It is a mix of polysaccharides and glucose, as found in chicory, for example. Bifidobacteria in the gut use inulin as a good energy source. It does not influence blood sugar as it is not processed in the small intestine but is fermented by bacteria in the large intestine. The inulin used comes from organic cultivation.

Created to support blood sugar and metabolism in a simple and natural way

The Blood Sugar Complex from Unimedica was created to support the indivisible threesome – weight management, blood sugar level and metabolism - with the power of nature. Chromium, with its ability to maintain normal blood sugar levels and to promote the uptake of macronutrients, plays a special role here.

Yet selenium also plays a fundamental role, contributing to the normal function of the thyroid gland as the control centre of metabolism. And zinc is involved in the regulation of the body's acid-alkali balance, protein production and the metabolism or carbohydrate and fat. The trace elements zinc and selenium additionally support the immune system and cell protection.

Spectrum of action*

Zinc

contributes to normal function of the immune system, normal acid-base metabolism, protection of cells from oxidative stress, maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, normal fertility and reproduction, maintenance of normal bones, hair, skin and nails, maintenance of normal vision, normal carbohydrate and fatty acids metabolism, normal metabolism of vitamin A, normal cognitive function, normal protein synthesis and DNA synthesis and zinc has a role in the process of cell division.

Selenium

contributes to normal spermatogenesis, maintenance of normal hair and nails, normal functioning of the immune system, normal thyroid function and protection of cells from oxidative stress.

Chromium

contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism and to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels.

Chloride

contributes to normal digestion through the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach.
