These work extremely well! I empty the contents of the capsules into my mouth directly. And after that i can't taste sugar at all for several hours! It really helps me to overcome sugar cravings.

Metformin was becoming ineffective after 17 years, and my doctor said I could add this to my medications/supplements. I was amazed with the results. It helped drop my readings 20 to 30 points and more 2 hours after meals. I take one with lunch and dinner, along with my Metformin. I usually don't eat much for breakfast, but if I do, I'll take one then too. Before I started this, I had made a conscious effort to cut back on carbs, as I could see the writing on the wall. My days of being lackadaisical with carb eating was over. But even with reducing carbs, I was still having readings that were too high. My A1C which had been stuck in the low 7's for 7 years, had went up to 7.5. My recent test was 6.8, a nine year low for me. I contribute both the reduced carbs and this supplement with helping me drop my A1C 10%. My doctor was impressed! I try to exercise or do something like house cleaning to move around after eating. But if I'm stuck at the computer, with this supplement, I will still have good readings in the low 150's 2 hours after eating. The only negative is that it tastes awful, so plan on swallowing fast; however, for me there is no aftertaste. Everyone is different, but for me this has been a miracle. That being said, my lower A1C reading still required exercise and watching carbs. As with any supplement, you should check with your doctor first.
Update December 2018; this is still helping me with my sugar readings and I won’t go without it. And after being stuck at the same weight level for three years, I’ve lost 30#. No proof this supplement is the reason, but I think it has helped.
Update October 2019; this continues to help me have decent sugar readings and I still don’t notice any side effects. I highly recommend asking your doctor about this supplement.

As someone who is well into their senior years, I have been diagnosed with Diabetes for more than a decade. Even though I take doctor prescribed medication for this problem, I also take several supplements to support better blood glucose readings.

While checking online for some other supplements I came across this product (New supplements, Gymnema Silvestre 400 mg, supports glucose metabolism, 90 Veg. Capsules) on Amazon for a bargain price. After reading the many positive reviews I decided to try it and purchased a bottle.
I have just begun taking this Gynnema Sylvestre once a day with meals and I am pleased thus far with my purchase.

I am not being paid for this review and I paid for this product because of other reviews. I just started taking GS a few days ago to try to curb my sugar cravings and amazingly it is working. Sugars do not taste bad to me but I really just don’t think about them. Last week I bought all of the candy, this week it’s just sitting there. This is willpower support for me and I really appreciate it too!! I didn’t do this to lower my BS although it couldn’t hurt as I am getting a bit older (43 in 10/2023) and as things slow down, lab values tend to rise in very bad ways. I may edit with more if anything else occurs but just the fact that I want less sugar after three days is worth writing about to help inform decisions. Like if this helps and I’ll speak up more.

Make sure you do your research before purchasing this item. I took it and after a while I felt funny. I realized my blood pressure skyrocketed to a dangerous level and decided to read up on gymnema. I discovered that it can cause your blood pressure to drop tremendously or raise tremendously as well so be careful and do your research!! Especially if you already have blood pressure issues.

FIRST OFF: I'm NOT being paid for this review! My review is of my own accord - mainly to help others. I am a scientist of 35 years, 10 of them in pharmaceutical R&D.

My wife and I started taking this product about 9 months ago. We both had our bloodwork completed by our doctors about 3 months before we started taking this specific brand of Gymnema. Both of us used 1 capsule/day in the evening before bed. I am diabetic (T2) and my wife has been fighting extremely high triglycerides and was out on a few other data blood concentration data points.

With no changes to our diet/exercise/medicine over the test. My A1C went from 6.8 to 6.5. My wife's triglycerides went from 800 to 180 and the rest of her tests improved as well. The results speak for themselves! GREAT PRODUCT!!
