Indfrag UltraDia is a unique formulation of Gymnema Sylvestre and Banaba that combines the wisdom of ancient Ayurvedic medicine with the technology of modern science. Indfrag UltraDia helps balance blood sugar, promote healthy insulin levels and control appetite and food cravings.

In centuries old Ayurvedic literature, 12 grams of Gymnema leaf were given to a patient every day as a treatment for diabetes. Indfrag UltraDia reproduces this treatment to the maximum possible extent using a highly specialized Indfrag proprietary process that preserves the complete chemical potency (full HPLC spectrum - a-state-of-the-art measure of potency) of the plant extract while discarding the waste plant material.

Indfrag UltraDia's other ingredients, Banaba leaf has been consumed as a herbal tea for many centuries. Banaba leaf extract reduces elevated blood sugar and returns insulin levels to normal. This regulation of blood sugar and insulin may aid in appetite control and prevent cravings for carbohydrates such as bread and sweets, and may also promote weight loss in some individuals.

Research
Gymnema is a herb used medicinally in India and Southeast Asia for the treatment of diabetes or hyperglycemia.

Gymnema sylvestre leaves contain gymnemic acids, which have been found to suppress transport of glucose from the intestine into the blood stream. Gymnema also contains a protein, gurma, that can cause taste receptors on the tongue to decrease the sensation of sweetness in many foods. The dual action of gymnema has been clinically proved to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels in diabetic animals and humans and help reduce food cravings, especially for sweets.

It also appears that high doses of the dried Gymnema leaves may repair insulin producing beta-cells in the pancreas, repairing cellular damage, which may cause diabetes if left untreated. Gymnema has also been found to increase the effectiveness of Insulin, the exact mechanism by which this occurs has not yet been identified.

Banaba is a medicinal plant found in Southeast Asia and the Philippines. Banaba has been found to regulate blood sugar in both animal and human studies. Banaba leaf extract contains a compound known as corosolic acid, which stimulates glucose transport into cells, thereby controlling fluctuations in blood sugar and insulin levels.

In humans with type II diabetes, Banaba extract, at a dose of 16-48mg per day for 4-8 weeks, has been shown to be effective in reducing blood sugar levels (5%-30% reduction) and maintaining tighter control of blood sugar fluctuations.

Another therapeutic effect of this regulation of blood sugar and insulin levels is a significant tendency of Banaba to promote weight loss (an average of 2-4 lbs. per month), without any dietary changes.
