Pharmachem Ingredients Featured in New Line

KEARNY, N.J.Natural ingredients from Pharmachem Laboratories Inc. are included in a line of dietary supplements from Life Extension Foundation that are geared to the middle-age population struggling with weight control issues and blood sugar concerns. Calorie Control Weight Management Formula and Optimized Irvingia with Phase 3 are formulated to support healthy weight loss, while Natural Glucose Absorption Control supports healthy post-prandial glucose management.

Calorie Control Weight Management Formula features Phase 2 Carb Controller, Pharmachems white kidney bean extract that inhibits the amylase enzyme in the digestive tract. Amylase breaks down carbohydrates that are then absorbed into the bloodstream as glucose. In several placebo-controlled clinical trials, Phase 2 reduced starch digestion and resulted in weight loss.

Optimized Irvingia with Phase 3 Sugar Controller provides support to reverse the age-related metabolic changes that predispose middle-aged individuals to weight gain, even when they cut back on caloric intake. It features Phase 3 Sugar Controller, a patented L-arabinose compound that functions to adjust sucrose, thus supporting the healthy release of insulin and sugar into the bloodstream in response to sucrose ingestion that typically converts to body fat. The formula also contains Phase 2 which significantly reduced the glycemic index of white bread when it was consumed with 3000 mg of the ingredient in powder form.

Natural Glucose Absorption Control is targeted to the millions of middle-aged adults and Baby Boomers who are concerned about blood sugar levels leading to type 2 diabetes, and serves as a companion to a fiber-rich, nutrient-dense diet to manage healthy blood sugar levels.  It contains Phase 3 Sugar Controller, featuring a blend of L-arabinose and chromium to support healthy blood sugar and insulin levels, as well as healthy glycemic metabolism.
