Miracle fruit - Gymnema

Known traditionally as a ‘miracle fruit’, Gymnema has been strongly recommended by Ayurvedic practitioners for the last 2000 years, as a highly effective naturopathic treatment for Diabetes. The herb is known to reduce blood sugar levels and improve pancreatic health in general. Gymnema Sylvestre reduces sugar cravings, when placed in the mouth and keeps it to a minimum for two hours. Gymnema is also efficacious in the treatment of obesity, high cholesterol levels and digestion.
