Blood Sugar Support Pack
Douglas Laboratories
Overview
The Blood Sugar Support Pack offers a broad array of ingredients, many of which have individual research supporting their role in glucose and lipid metabolism. While some ingredients like Chromium and Omega-3s are well-dosed and have clear benefits for blood sugar and cardiovascular health, the effectiveness of the 'Proprietary Blend' is difficult to ascertain due to undisclosed dosages, making it hard to confirm if key botanical ingredients are present at clinically effective levels. The inclusion of a wide range of vitamins and minerals provides general nutritional support, which can indirectly aid metabolic health.
The Good
Provides comprehensive daily multi-vitamin and mineral foundation.
Contains clinically relevant dose of Chromium for blood sugar support.
Includes Omega-3 fatty acids for cardiovascular health, often linked to metabolic health.
The Bad
Proprietary blend formulation (500mg total for 10 ingredients) obscures effective dosages of individual botanical extracts like Momordica, Gymnema, Goldenseal, and Acetyl-L-Carnitine.
Some ingredients in the proprietary blend (e.g., Goldenseal with berberine) have known drug interaction potential due to CYP inhibition, increasing risks when mixed with medications.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid (100mg) is below common therapeutic doses (600-1800mg) for significant glycemic or neuropathic benefits.
