It is considered one of the oldest traditional herbs of the Asian region with purgative, diuretic, and antioxidant properties, stimulating the secretion and action of insulin in the metabolism of glucose and lipids.
The leaves of Gymnema Sylvestre contain terpenic saponins and terpenoids which support the regular functioning of the endocrine system, and help in maintaining a healthy digestive system.
The benefits of Gymnema Sylvestre have been associated with alleviating the symptoms of diabetes mellitus, managing normal weight, and restoring rapid digestion. Recent research indicates that it may help in healthy glucose metabolism through its ability to promote normal pancreatic activity.
