Blood Sugar is metabolized by the body in very complex ways. In an ideal state, the body uses the sugars derived from food only as required for metabolism, ensuring there is sufficient glucose in the blood at all times for our energy requirements, but that is it not present in excess. The excess sugar from our food is stored in fat for use later when we don't have sufficient foods available for our immediate energy requirements.

To understand how Levolar Forte works to support normal blood sugar, it is important to look at how the body metabolizes blood sugar:

• Food is digested in the stomach and intestines. Starches and Carbohydrates, which are long-chain sugar molecules, are broken down into simpler sugars which can be absorbed into the blood stream. This is where the majority of our dietary sugars come from. Also, lesser amounts are released from the fats we eat, also broken down into simpler sugars and absorbed into the blood stream.
   
• In response to this increase in blood sugar following a meal, the body produces a couple of enzymes, primarily Insulin and Hepatic Glucokinase, which act as triggers to allow the blood sugar to enter into the cells where it can be used for energy. These enzymes, particularly Insulin, fit receptors on the surface of the cells, and act to open a passage into the cell to allow the entry of the sugar. Like a key opening a locked door into the cell, allowing the entry of the sugars for use in the cell.
   
• Any sugar in excess of what is needed at the time is converted by other enzymes into compounds which are stored in fat in the body. Later, when there are no dietary sources of sugar for the body to utilize, these fat stores release the sugars back into the blood stream for use as needed.

There are at least five different mechanisms by which Levolar Forte works to support the body's natural ability to maintain normal healthy blood sugar levels:

• Most of our blood sugar comes from the starches and carbohydrates we eat. These are digested in the intestines by enzymes called alphaglucosidases. (alpha-glucoside is the technical term for starches. Alpha-glucoside-ases are the enzymes which digest these starches) Levolar Forte contains an extract from the root bark of a rare tree from India named Salacia oblonga. Salacia contains natural alphaglucosidase inhibitors which limit the digestion of starches in the gut. When the starches are not digested, the sugars never enter the blood stream in the first place, but rather pass through unchanged.
  
  Levolar Forte also contains Grifola frondosa (Maitake) which promotes inhibition of alphaglucosidase as well. This helps limit the amount of sugars released from the carbohydrates we eat. Together, these two alphaglucosidase inhibitors promote significant reduction in the amount of sugar that ever enters the blood stream in the first place.
  
   
• The second mechanism comes from the well known mushroom Cordyceps sinensis, which contains compounds that support healthy blood sugar metabolism in two different ways:
      a) It supports healthy production of the enzyme Hepatic Glucokinase, which is a secondary mechanism by which the body metabolizes blood sugar.
      b) It promotes sensitivity of the insulin receptors on the surface of the cells, so that any insulin present is more effectively utilized.
  
   
• The third mechanism is from  a special extract of Cinnamon, which contains a group of bioactive compounds called MHCP (Methyl-Hydroxy-Chalcone-Polymer) that limit the release of stored sugar from fat. Cinnamon's MHCP compounds inhibit the enzymes which trigger the release of glucose between meals and while sleeping. We derive this from two types of cinnamon, both Cinnamomum zylanicum (true Cinnamon from Madagascar) and Cinnamomum cassia (called Bastard Cinnamon from India). Levolar Forte is the only product on the market containing both these different cinnamons.
  
  
   
• The forth way in which Levolar Forte supports healthy blood sugar metabolism is by speeding the excretion of excess sugar not required for energy metabolism. The mushroom Coprinus Comatus may promote reduction in excess blood sugar through mechanisms which are only partly understood, probably through increased excretion through the kidneys.
  
  
  And last, the catalytic action of Chromium and Biotin in Levolar Forte are necessary for normal blood sugar metabolism and are even more important in people with type two diabetes. The type of chromium used in Levolar Forte  is Chromium Polynicotinate, which is the most absorbable type. Each tablet of Levolar Forte contains 200 umg of elemental chromium, for a total of 800 umg per day. This is the optimum dose to support healthy blood sugar levels.
  
  Biotin is also involved in the breakdown of excess blood sugar. We normally get biotin from our diets, but the amount usually consumed in our food is insufficient to effect blood sugar levels in type two diabetics. Levolar Forte contains 8 mg of Biotin per tablet, which is many times the amount found in out normal diet.
