Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study was designed to examine changes in capillary blood glucose and venous insulin levels after a 70 gram oral sucrose challenge with and without simultaneous consumption of a dietary supplement containing L-Arabinose and a patented version of chromium (LA-Cr).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study concluded that consumption of the LA-Cr supplement in conjunction with a 70-gram sucrose challenge led to a significant reduction of capillary blood glucose and venous insulin as compared to the sucrose challenge without the LA-Cr supplement. This finding may provide an important tool to reduce the adverse effects associated with elevated glucose and insulin levels.
