Gymnema sylvestre is a climbing vine used in Ayurvedic tradition for centuries. Its Hindi name, gurmar, translates loosely as "sugar destroyer," and the herb is best known for its gymnemic acids, which can temporarily dull the taste of sweetness. People take it to support healthy blood sugar metabolism and to help manage sugar cravings.*

What's inside

• USDA Organic gymnema sylvestre 25:1 concentrated extract
• Standardized to 25% gymnemic acids, with a minimum of 2% vitexin
• 120 vegan capsules per bottle, a four-month supply at one a day
• Non-GMO, with no sweeteners or artificial flavors; free of wheat, corn, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish and tree nuts
• Made in the USA in a certified GMP facility

How to use

Take one capsule daily, ideally before a meal. If you take medication that lowers blood sugar, speak with your doctor before using gymnema, since it may add to the effect.

Why we carry it

Most gymnema capsules contain plain leaf powder with no stated gymnemic acid content, so you cannot tell how strong they are. Zazzee uses a certified-organic 25:1 extract standardized to 25% gymnemic acids and prints it on the label, and the 120-count bottle costs less per month than many 60-count competitors.
