How does Salacia OblongaExtractwork?

Salacia oblonga (or S. oblonga) is a traditional Indian herb used tohelp control the increase in blood sugar that follows a meal byinterfering with the absorption of carbohydrates. Native to regions ofIndia and Sri Lanka, Salacia oblonga has been used for centuries intraditional Eastern medicine.
When glucose is absorbed in the body and converted into glycogens andneutral lipids by insulin, it accumulates as body fat and organ fat,which causes obesity and other health-related issues.

Extra:
Salacia OblongaExtractcontains two potent alpha-Glucosidaseinhibitors: Salicinol and Kotalanol 9. It binds to intestinal enzymesthat break down carbohydrates in the body.These enzymes, calledalpha-glucosidases, turn carbohydrates into glucose, the sugar thatcirculates throughout the body. If the intestinal enzymes bind to theherbal extract rather than to a carbohydrate, less glucose gets intothe blood stream, resulting in more stable blood glucose levels.
Salacia Oblonga helps to inhibit the breakdown of oligosaccharides(disaccharides and trisaccharides) such as sucrose and maltose, intomonosaccharides, and helps to inhibit the absorption of monosaccharides(such as glucose) in the body. This interference with carbohydrateabsorption helps to prevent blood sugar levels from rising dramaticallyafter meals
