Caralluma (Caralluma fimbriata)
Supplementation with Caralluma Fimbriata extract whilst controlling overall dietary intake and physical activity may potentially play a role in curbing central obesity, the key component of metabolic syndrome.

In Western India, Caralluma Fimbriata is well known as a famine food, appetite suppressant, and thirst quencher. The green follicles are eaten, boiled and salted. It also finds use today as an appetite suppressant and famine food during times of famine, in the semi-arid regions of India.

The tribal community treats Caralluma Fimbriata as a food item for daily consumption. They believe that Caralluma is a unique herb which cures common health problems as well as enjoying its fantastic ability to suppress appetite and thirst.

Gymnema (Gymnema sylvestre)
You simply can’t taste sugar after taking gymnema. That’s because the atomic arrangements of the gymnemic acids (found in gymnema) appear to the taste buds very similar to sugar molecules which fill the receptors in the taste buds preventing their activation by the sugar molecule in the food. Similarly, in the intestine it attaches to the receptor present in the external layer of the intestine, thereby preventing the absorption of sugar molecules by the intestine, leading to a reduction in blood sugar levels.

Many studies have been published on the effects of gymnema. They have shown the plant to reduce excessive appetite, fatigue, blood glucose concentration as well as showing a favorable blood fat lowering effect. One study showed that gymnema therapy appears to enhance endogenous insulin, possibly by regeneration/revitalization of the residual beta cells in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
Coleus forskohlii (Plectranthus barbatus)
Coleus is one of the commercially important herbal ingredients for weight loss dietary supplements in the global market. Its favorable effects on body fat management have been well established.

Limited human studies have indicated that supplementation with Coleus forskohlii extract elicits favorable changes to body composition. One study found a significant reduction of body fat percentage in overweight and obese men after 12 weeks of supplementation with Coleus forskohlii extract.

It may stimulate the release of fatty acids from adipose tissue, which results in increased thermogenesis, loss of body fat, and theoretically increased lean body mass.

Chromium polynicotinate 

Chromium is necessary for the uptake of sugar into the body’s cells by insulin. If sugar is not taken into the cell to be used for energy then the body must take it away from the blood vessels to prevent harm.
On a molecular level chromium enhances the effect of insulin on insulin receptors, glucose transporters and glycogen synthase, the enzyme that converts glucose to glycogen.

If the body is supplied with chromium a healthy blood sugar balance is more easily maintained because the body is able to utilize more sugar for energy into the cells where it is needed.
