General
Female Bloodsugar Support scientifically supplements the diet with nutrients that are particularly important for normal insulin sensitivity and normal blood sugar levels. Normal insulin sensitivity is particularly important for women. This is because poor insulin sensitivity is very likely to have a negative impact on fertility.
But what does insulin resistance have to do with fertility? Insulin resistance causes an excess of insulin to be produced, as the insulin present in normal amounts can no longer work properly. Excess insulin in turn promotes the production of male hormones, which in turn favours PCOS. However, insulin sensitivity can be positively influenced by diet, nutritional supplements and exercise. Conversely, a poor diet with lots of sugar and simple carbohydrates, nutrient deficiencies and a lack of exercise are the main causes of insulin resistance.
Important: Food supplements are only ever a supplement to a balanced and healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Chromium picolinate helps to maintain normal blood sugar levels. So does exercise.
Female Bloodsugar Support is the perfect complement to a healthy, low-sugar diet and exercise to meet the increased need for chromium, vitamin D and L-carnitine.
Female Bloodsugar Support is based on the latest scientific findings and was developed together with nutritionists. The dosages of the ingredients correspond to generally recognised scientific data.
Ingredients
Chromium
For insulin to work normally, one nutrient is particularly important: chromium in the form of chromium picolinate. It has been proven to act as an insulin booster. For this reason, Female Bloodsugar Support contains chromium and vitamin C in the best bioavailable, effective and safe dosage. Vitamin C ensures that the chromium picolinate is effectively absorbed.
This is why the EFSA has also confirmed that chromium plays an important role in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels and why systematic reviews, i.e. studies that have examined studies, have also found a connection between the supplementation of chromium picolinate and the normalisation of fasting insulin levels and testosterone levels in women with PCOS, which is why an important approach is to normalise blood sugar control, to which chromium picolinate has been shown to contribute.
For this reason, Female Bloodsugar Support contains chromium and vitamin C in the best bioavailable, effective and safe dosage. Vitamin C ensures that the chromium picolinate is effectively absorbed.
Chromium and vitamin C
Chromium is a trace element that plays an important functional role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis and insulin metabolism. Vitamin C belongs to the group of water-soluble vitamins. Both occur naturally in animal and plant foods.
Among other things, chromium potentiates the cellular insulin effect and improves glucose tolerance. Vitamin C increases the absorption of chromium. (Gröber, 2011; Zimmermann et al., 2018; Biesalski et al., 2018)
Female Bloodsugar Suppert provides chromium as a readily bioavailable chromium picolinate combined with vitamin C to enhance bioavailability in the scientifically proven dosage of 200 mcg chromium plus 50 mg vitamin C.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is a steroid hormone of the human body and is present in almost all tissues of the female reproductive tract. It is primarily synthesised in the skin from cholesterol through exposure to sunlight. It is also found in limited quantities in animal and occasionally plant foods.
Female Bloodsugar Support supplies vitamin D as a readily bioavailable vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) to cover the increased requirement in combination with the Essentials.
Female Bloodsugar Support FAQ
Can Female Bloodsugar Support be taken during pregnancy?
During pregnancy, all supplements should be checked by a doctor before use. We do not recommend taking Female Bloodsugar Support during pregnancy as there is no safety data on the chromium it contains. However, with the combination of Essentials O3-D3-K2 and Pregnancy Support you are well provided for during pregnancy.
How can Female Bloodsugar Support be combined with other capsule products from More??
Female Bloodsugar Support can be combined with our Essentials O3-D3-K2, Mineral Complete and, if required, Female Protect. When taking Cycle Balance, it is unlikely that any additional benefit can be derived from Female Bloodsugar Support. Cycle Balance is used as a supplement especially to regulate hormonal activity when hormones fluctuate extremely during the cycle, leading to the typical premenstrual upsets. As insulin is also one of these hormones, Cycle Balance also contains a corresponding dose of chromium, which has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity.
Female Bloodsugar Support is used as a supplement, especially in cases of severe blood sugar fluctuations. Depending on which ‘problem’ is more dominant, the more suitable product should be chosen. If the focus cannot be determined, we recommend trying Cycle Balance for one cycle and Female Bloodsugar Support for another cycle to see which product makes you feel better.
Is Female Bloodsugar Support suitable for diabetics??
Please consult a doctor. Depending on whether insulin, metformin or other medication is being taken to control blood sugar levels, the dosage may need to be adjusted slightly or the product may need to be discontinued altogether. However, only the doctor can decide this.
Is Female Bloodsugar Support gluten-free?
Female Bloodsugar Support is gluten-free, so barley malt extract is not emphasised. We are well below 20 ppm gluten.
