"Countless aging Americans find themselves under constant assault from
excess glucose calories. Even health-conscious, active people can
experience higher-than-desired blood sugar levels as they age. Life
Extension now offers an enhanced, all-natural, multipronged approach:
CinSulin® with InSea2® and Crominex® 3+.
CinSulin®. Scientists worldwide are excited over the clinically
validated power of a novel form of cinnamon to support healthy glucose
metabolism.12,13 Scientists at the US Department of Agriculture have
been quietly studying it for more than a decade.14,15 Government experts
have been amazed by compelling in vitro results documenting its ability
to induce a twenty-fold increase in sugar metabolism.16
Studies in humans have shown to be equally impressive. In a recent
double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial,17 a group of maturing
individuals (average age 61) taking 500 mg per day of the cinnamon
extract contained in this CinSulin® formula experienced an average
decline of 12 mg/dL in fasting blood glucose after only two months. This
novel cinnamon extract also produced a significant decrease in
after-meal glucose spikes (an average of 32 mg/dL) after ingestion of 75
g of carbohydrates!
An objective of those who practice calorie restriction is to maintain
fasting glucose levels around 80 mg/dL of blood and after-meal glucose
spikes to no greater than 40 mg/dL. CinSulin® may help more longevity
enthusiasts accomplish their glucose control objective.
Cinnamon polyphenols have been found to activate our cells' glucose
detection systems, enabling them to support healthy blood glucose
already within normal range.18-23 Cinnamon also induces satiety (the
feeling of being full) which inhibits overconsumption and optimizes
after-meal blood sugar spikes at healthy levels. However, cinnamon
naturally contains fat-soluble compounds known as aldehydes. The good
news is that Life Extension® has identified a highly purified,
water-soluble cinnamon extract.
InSea2®. Researchers have known of the many health benefits of seaweed
extracts for years. Only recently has it come to light that a
proprietary form of seaweed extract called InSea2® blocks the action of
glucosidase and amylase enzymes your body uses to break down
carbohydrates into glucose, facilitating its transport into the
bloodstream. Derived from brown seaweed and bladderwrack, a single 500
mg dose of this proprietary compound triggered a 48.3% decline in
after-meal blood sugar spikes in a recent double-blind, placebo
controlled trial.27
Crominex® 3+. Long known for its role in maintaining healthy glucose
metabolism, chromium has been optimized with standardized extract of
Indian gooseberry and a proprietary form of the adaptogen shilajit. The
name of this most advanced chromium complex is Crominex® 3+. The
Crominex® 3+ complex helps support:
Normal cellular glucose absorption28-34
Healthy endothelial function35,36
Healthy lipid and triglyceride levels37-40
Normal cellular energy production41,42
Combined with CinSulin® and InSea2®, the result is an unrivaled formula
that affords optimal support for healthy glucose metabolism in aging
individuals."
