What is Gymnema sylvestre(urmarbooti, Gurmar)?What is Gimnemic Acid and Constitue nts of Gymnema sylvestre leaves?Application and Uses of Gymnema sylvestre and Gim nemic Acid?Where to souce bulk Gymnema sylvestre P.E.raw material?

¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó¡ó Composition&Application: Gymnema leaves contain Gymnemic acid as an effective substance. Gymnemic aci d has a structure with tri-terpenoid combined with glucuronic acid and several fa tty acids. We have established analytical method of Gymnemic acid by HPLC method, and extract and refine Gymnema syrvestre extract with a clear guideline of effec tive substance. Active constituents: The hypoglycemic (blood sugar-lowering) action of gymne ma leaves was first documented in the late 1920s.This action is gradual in nature , differing from the rapid effect of many prescription hypoglycemic drugs. Gymnem a leaves raise insulin levels, according to research in healthy volunteers.Based on animal studies, this may be due to regeneration of the cells in the pancreas t hat secrete insulin. Other animal research shows that gymnema can also improve up take of glucose into cells and prevent adrenaline from stimulating the liver to p roduce glucose, thereby reducing blood sugar levels.

Active Component and Structure of Gymnema sylvestre(urmarbooti, Gurmar). Application and Uses of Gymnema sylvestre and Gimnemic Acid.

Parts used and Habitat of Gymnema sylvestre(urmarbooti, Gurmar): Gymnema sylvestre is a woody climbing plant that grows in the tropical fores ts of central and southern India. The leaves are used in herbal medicine preparat ions. G. sylvestre is known as periploca of the woods in English and meshasringi (meaning ¡°ram¡¯s horn¡±) in Sanskrit. The leaves, when chewed, interfere with th e ability to taste sweetness, which explains the Hindi name gurmar¡ª¡°destroyer o f sugar.¡± Gymnema sylvestre, a family of Asclepiadaceae, is a perennial plant originat ed in India. In India, there is a locally descended medical science with the hist ory of 2,000 years called "AYUL-VEDA" in which all treatments are done with natur al materials. Among those materiales, Gymnema sylvestre has always been used as a herb good for diabetes treatment, and also as a diuretic, a digestive and a toni c. The word "Gymnema" is said to be derived from a Hindu word "Gurmar", a sugar d estroyer, because a bite of Gymnema sylvestre makes you feel no sweet taste of su gar. Properties: Antiperiodic, Diuretic, Stomachic

Active Component and Structure of Gymnema sylvestre(urmarbooti, Gurmar): Gymnema leaves contain Gymnemic acid as an effective substance. Gymnemic aci d has a structure with tri-terpenoid combined with glucuronic acid and several fa tty acids. We have established analytical method of Gymnemic acid by HPLC method, and extract and refine Gymnema syrvestre extract with a clear guideline of effec tive substance. Active constituents: The hypoglycemic (blood sugar-lowering) action of gymnema leaves was first d ocumented in the late 1920s.1 This action is gradual in nature, differing from th e rapid effect of many prescription hypoglycemic drugs. Gymnema leaves raise insu lin levels, according to research in healthy volunteers.2 Based on animal studies , this may be due to regeneration of the cells in the pancreas that secrete insul in.3 Other animal research shows that gymnema can also improve uptake of glucose into cells and prevent adrenaline from stimulating the liver to produce glucose, thereby reducing blood sugar levels.4 Molecular Structure of Gimnemic Acid:

Application and Uses of Gymnema sylvestre and Gimnemic Acid: Primary Uses: Diabetes, Hyperactivity, Hypoglycemia Secondary Uses: Allergies, Anemia, Cholesterol/high, Gastric Disorders, Indig estion, Obesity, Weight Related Conditions Historical or traditional use: The leaves of Gymnema sylvestre have been used for centuries in the traditio nal Indian System of Ayurvedic medicine. Gymnema has been used in India for the t reatment of diabetes for over 2,000 years. The leaves were also used for stomach ailments, constipation, water retention, and liver disease. The term "destroyer of sugar" is traditionally used for Gymnema because chew ing the leaves will abolish the taste of sweetness. Gymnema sylvestre has been used for thousands of years and has proven over t ime to be a non-toxic remedy. It is used for many conditions including diabetes, digestion, urinary tract problems, obesity, hypoglycemia, allergies, anemia, chol esterol and hyperactivity. The leaves are also noted for lowering serum cholesterol and triglycerides.5 While studies have shown that a water-soluble acidic fraction of the leaves prov ides hypoglycemic actions, the specific constituent responsible for this action h as not been clearly identified. Some researchers have suggested gymnemic acid as one possible candidate.6 However, further research is needed to clearly determine which constituent is responsible for this effect. Gurmarin, another constituent of the leaves, and gymnemic acid have been shown to block the ability in humans t o taste sweets.7 Research has confirmed that the active ingredient, gymnemic acid, blocks the taste of sugar as well as blocking sugar's absorption by the body. A study published in 1986 suggests that the extract of gymnema can significa ntly increase liver and pancreatic function. This is promising for diabetes, obes ity, hypoglycemia, allergies, anemia and osteoporosis. Some of the most promising studies have shown that gymnema reduces blood sug ar levels after the consumption of the extract. This may help to reduce the amoun t of insulin needed by diabetics. Stabilizes blood sugar levels: Is an herb that reduces blood sugar levels after sugar consumption. Can block absorption of up to 50% of dietary sugar calories. Why Gymnema Sylvestre? Gymnema Sylvestre - controlling the blood sugar level Gymnema Sylvestre - to help maintain healthy glucose levels Gymnema Sylvestre - glucose lowering properties Gymnema Sylvestre - to promote proper pancreatic function Physiological Functions of Gymnemic acid: Gymnemic acid combined with the recognized site of sugar, and so it prevents sugar from combining with the site. It have suppressive activity of absorption o f sugar. The following effects have been reported. Gymnemic acid help controlling sweet taste Gymnemic acid help controlling absorption of sugar in the body Gymnemic acid depress appetite and cause weight reduction Gymnemic acid restoring pancreas functions Gymnemic acid also show nti-tooth decaying effect

Applications of Gymnemic acid and Gymnema Sylvestre Extracts: For health food for diet Prevention of diabetes For protection of decayed tooth processed in foods Research indicates this amazing herb has positive benefits on blood sugar co ntrol, helps with sugar cravings and to regenerate the pancreas. In tests on diab etic rats, the pancreas doubled in size and grew new insulin-producing cells. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
