Gluco

Diabetes, particularly type 2 diabetes, is one of the most common metabolic and lifestyle disorders of the modern world. In the US alone, approximately 37 million people are afflicted (about 1 in 10 Americans), and 96 million (more than 1 in 3) are pre-diabetic. Major contributing factors to the diabetes epidemic include stress, sedentary lifestyle, and regular consumption of the "Standard American Diet" (SAD). Treating diabetes starts with foundational changes such as dietary and lifestyle interventions, but herbal support may be helpful in improving blood sugar management and increasing insulin sensitivity.

Ojas Gluco is a carefully chosen blend of herbs and minerals that may support healthy glucose metabolism.
