GlucoFit - The 411 on this Dietary Ingredient

You may have seen GlucoFit® as an ingredient in some of your dietary supplements and wondered what it is and what it does. GlucoFit® is a dietary ingredient extracted from the herb Banaba (Lagerstroemia speciosa), standardized to 18% Corosolic Acid. GlucoFit's active component, Corosolic Acid, has been shown in scientific studies to support healthy glucose metabolism.* In this blog post, we'll give you the rundown on GlucoFit®, what it does, and how it can benefit you.

What is GlucoFit?

GlucoFit is a dietary ingredient extracted from the herb Banaba (Lagerstroemia speciosa). Banaba is a plant indigenous to Southeast Asia that has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for its various health benefits. The leaves of Banaba are rich in corosolic acid, which is the active compound in GlucoFit. Corosolic acid has been shown to support healthy glucose metabolism.*

GlucoFit is standardized to 18% corosolic acid, which is the highest concentration commercially available. It is important to note that not all Banaba extract supplements on the market contain pure corosolic acid; some contain other compounds present in Banaba leaves that may or may not offer health benefits. Make sure to check the labels of Banaba supplements carefully to ensure that they contain pure corosolic acid.

Health Benefits of GlucoFit

Corosolic acid, the active compound in GlucoFit, has been shown in scientific studies to support healthy glucose metabolism.* In a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled human clinical trial involving type 2 diabetes patients, those who supplemented with corosolic acid experienced significant improvements in fasting blood sugar levels and HbA1c levels (a measure of long-term blood sugar control) compared to those who did not supplement with corosolic acid.*

In another 12-week human clinical trial conducted with type 2 diabetes patients, participants who supplemented with a Banaba leaf extract similar to GlucoFit had significantly lower fasting blood sugar levels and HbA1c levels at the end of the trial compared to those who did not supplement with Banaba leaf extract.* These studies suggest that supplementation with GlucoFit may help support healthy glucose metabolism in type 2 diabetes patients.*
