Carbo Defense is a wide-spectrum formulation which helps prevent and counteract the negative effects of excess carbohydrates in the diet.
The ingredients in Carbo Defense reduce the conversion of carbohydrates into fat reserves, slow down their absorption into the small intestine, improve the body's sensitivity to the pancreatic hormone, and regulate glucose metabolism in general.
A formulation like Carbo Defense can help you:
Carbo Defense is ideal for plugging any gaps' in a low-carb diet, or for boosting its beneficial effects when strictly adhered to. It contains a veritable and scientifically supported arsenal of ingredients that bring several benefits.
Reduces blood glucose, stimulates glucose transport across cell membranes, mimics the action of the pancreatic hormone, and reduces weight and body fat, as shown in animal studies.
Controls carbohydrate cravings, reduces postprandial glycemia and levels of glycated hemoglobin, and generally improves pancreas function.
Normalizes the function of the pancreatic hormone and regulates blood sugar levels (see Crominex® 3+).
Stabilizes blood sugar and improves glucose tolerance.
Inhibits the activity of amylase, the enzyme which converts starch into fast-release sugars, and reduces oxidation of LDL-cholesterol.
Lowers blood glucose, improves its transport into cells, improves sensitivity to the blood sugar regulating hormone, and possibly controls cholesterol and triglycerides.
Blocks absorption of starch, reduces absorption of glucose, improves sensitivity to the hormone responsible for blood sugar control, and reduces oxidative stress with a powerful protective effect on the liver.
Significantly improves (up to 20 times in vitro) glucose metabolism and activates enzymes which stimulate receptors of the pancreatic hormone and inhibit enzymes which de-activate them. It also improves metabolism of glucose and of lipids in vivo and reduce triglycerides, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in vivo, according to studies conducted by the US Dept of Agriculture.
Improves sensitivity to the pancreatic hormone in type 2 diabetics and reduces blood glucose and levels of the hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar.
