Reduces Sugar Cravings

Gymnema Sylvestre can aid in the reduction of sugar cravings. Gymnemic acid, one of the plant's key active components, aids in the suppression of sweetness. Gymnemic acid, when ingested before a sweet food or beverage, inhibits the sugar receptors on your taste buds.

According to studies, Gymnema Sylvestre extracts can lower the capacity to sense sweetness, making sweet meals less desirable. Half of the participants in fasting research were given Gymnema extract. Those who took the supplement had a lower hunger for sweet foods at the next meal and were more inclined to limit their food consumption than those who did not take the extract.
