Blood Sugar Support

Preserve muscle mass and support metabolic health with apple peel derived ursolic acid

Ursolic acid is a plant compound found naturally in rosemary, apple peel, basil and other herbs. It has attracted research interest for its potential effects on muscle preservation, body composition and metabolic health.

Each capsule provides 80mg of ursolic acid derived from rosemary leaf extract. At the recommended dose of 6 capsules per day (480mg), this provides a meaningful daily intake of ursolic acid in a clean, plant based formulation with no additional fillers.

Preclinical research has linked ursolic acid to reduced muscle wasting, improved insulin sensitivity and increased brown fat activity. While most of this evidence comes from animal and cell studies, the compound is increasingly used in sports nutrition and body composition protocols based on its mechanistic profile.

Ursolic acid is fat soluble and is best absorbed when taken alongside a meal that contains dietary fat. It is suitable for long term use and has no known significant interactions with medications at standard supplemental doses.

Key benefits:

• Muscle preservation during weight loss
• Metabolic health and body composition
• Natural source from apple peel

† Nutrient Reference Value (NRV*) not established

Rosemary Leaf Extract, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (capsule).

Directions for use:

Take 2 capsules three times per day with meals.

Spreading the dose across three meals maintains more consistent levels throughout the day and improves absorption, as ursolic acid is fat soluble.

At 6 capsules per day, a pot of 90 capsules provides a 15 day supply. If you are taking ursolic acid as part of a body composition or exercise programme, consistent daily use over 8 to 12 weeks is recommended to assess its effect.

Regulate blood sugar and reduce cravings with chromium picolinate

Chromium is a trace mineral that plays a key role in how the body responds to insulin. It helps insulin work more efficiently, which supports stable blood sugar levels and reduces the sharp spikes and crashes that drive cravings, energy dips and afternoon fatigue.

Each capsule provides 200mcg of chromium in the picolinate form. Picolinate is the most commonly studied form of chromium for blood sugar support, with research showing it can help reduce carbohydrate cravings and improve insulin sensitivity in people with blood sugar instability.

Chromium is most useful for people who experience strong carb or sugar cravings, energy crashes between meals, or who have been identified as having raised insulin levels or early insulin resistance. It is not a replacement for dietary changes, but it can make those changes significantly easier to sustain by reducing the physiological cravings that undermine them.

At the recommended dose of 1 to 2 capsules per day (200 to 400mcg), effects on cravings and blood sugar stability are typically noticed within 2 to 4 weeks. Chromium is well tolerated at these doses and can be taken on an ongoing basis.

Key benefits:

• Steadier blood sugar after meals
• Fewer cravings and appetite swings
• Better insulin sensitivity and balance

† Nutrient Reference Value (NRV*) not established

Cellulose, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (capsule), Chromium Picolinate.

Directions for use:

Take 1 capsule twice per day with meals.

Taking chromium with food supports its role in the insulin response to that meal. It is most effective when taken at breakfast and lunch, or at the two meals where you tend to eat the most carbohydrates.

If you have been diagnosed with raised insulin levels or blood sugar issues, your healthcare practitioner may recommend 1 to 2 capsules with every meal. This higher dose should be guided by a practitioner and monitored alongside blood glucose markers.

Chromium is safe for long term use at standard doses. It does not cause hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar) in people with normal glucose metabolism.

Support healthy blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity with this botanical complex

A targeted formula combining minerals and plant compounds with evidence for supporting healthy blood sugar regulation. Each capsule provides 60mg magnesium (as bisglycinate, a well absorbed and gentle form), 20mcg chromium (as picolinate), and 200mg Ceylon cinnamon. Chromium picolinate plays a direct role in insulin signalling by enhancing the action of insulin at the receptor level, and is one of the most studied minerals for glucose metabolism. Ceylon cinnamon (as opposed to cassia cinnamon) is the preferred variety for ongoing use, as it contains negligible coumarin, making it safe at higher doses over extended periods.

The formula also includes 40mg each of grape skin extract, grapeseed extract (95% OPC), green tea extract (45% EGCG) and turmeric (95% curcuminoids), providing antioxidant and anti inflammatory support that addresses the oxidative stress associated with blood sugar dysregulation. Piperine (400mcg) is included to enhance the bioavailability of turmeric, which is otherwise poorly absorbed. The vegetarian capsule shell makes this suitable for most dietary requirements.

Key benefits:

• Steadier blood sugar and insulin response
• Fewer cravings and stable energy
• Botanical support with chromium

† Nutrient Reference Value (NRV*) not established

Magnesium Bisglycinate, Cinnamon, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (capsule), Green Tea Extract, Turmeric Extract, Grape Skin Extract, Grapeseed Extract, Piperine, Chromium Picolinate.

Directions for use:

For general blood sugar, energy and weight management support: take 3 capsules just after breakfast and 2 capsules just after lunch.

For those with diagnosed blood sugar concerns: take 2 capsules after each meal (6 capsules daily in total). Taking the capsules immediately after food rather than on an empty stomach supports the blood sugar regulating action by timing the active compounds to coincide with postprandial glucose processing.

If taking any blood sugar lowering medication, consult your healthcare professional before use, as chromium and cinnamon may enhance the effect of these medications. Magnesium bisglycinate in this formula is well tolerated at these doses and should not cause the digestive discomfort sometimes associated with other magnesium forms.

Support kidney health and ketone metabolism with this specialised formula

A targeted antioxidant and cellular support formula combining five complementary compounds. Each capsule provides 150mg Polygonum cuspidatum (Japanese knotweed extract) standardised to 25% resveratrol, delivering 37.5mg of trans resveratrol per capsule. Resveratrol is one of the most studied polyphenols for its role in activating sirtuins, supporting healthy ageing, cardiovascular support and modulating inflammatory pathways.

The formula also includes 100mg N acetyl cysteine (the most effective oral precursor to glutathione, the body's master antioxidant), 100mg coenzyme Q10 (supporting mitochondrial energy production and providing fat soluble antioxidant support), 100mg vitamin C and 15mg zinc as zinc citrate. This combination addresses oxidative stress through multiple mechanisms simultaneously: direct free radical scavenging (vitamin C, CoQ10), glutathione production support (NAC), sirtuin activation (resveratrol) and immune cell zinc metallothionein support. The vegetarian capsule shell makes this suitable for most dietary requirements.

Key benefits:

• Kidney support and healthy filtration
• Metabolic balance and ketone processing
• Targeted nutrients for renal health

† Nutrient Reference Value (NRV*) not established

Polygonum Cuspidatum, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (capsule), N.Acetyl Cysteine, Ascorbic Acid, Coenzyme Q10, Zinc Citrate.

Directions for use:

Take 1 capsule twice per day with meals.

Taking with food that contains some fat enhances absorption of the CoQ10 and resveratrol, both of which are fat soluble. The two capsule daily dose provides 75mg trans resveratrol, 200mg NAC, 200mg CoQ10, 200mg vitamin C and 30mg zinc.

If taking alongside other zinc containing supplements, be aware of total daily zinc intake. Sustained zinc intake above 30mg daily without copper supplementation may deplete copper stores over time. Consider adding 1 to 2mg copper if total daily zinc from all sources exceeds 30mg for extended periods.
