Here are the 3 most important things you need to know about Gymnema : 1. The Hindi dialect name of this plant is gudmar, which means sugar destroyer, a name it richly deserves. This is because it is probably the drug no. 1 in the world against diseases produced by the consumption of sugar and bad starch. 2. Perhaps the most interesting action of Gymnema is that it makes us, for a period of 1-4 hours after ingestion, immune to sweet taste. Gymnemic acid, which it contains, binds to sweet taste receptors, inhibiting sweet cravings. 3. Gymnema helps obese people who love fried foods and meat to lose weight. A study published in 2013 found that mice made obese after being fed a high-fat fast food diet benefited greatly from gymnema treatment. After 21 days of treatment with this plant extract, the obese mice experienced significant weight loss. They had less appetite, and their bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides decreased, while their good cholesterol (HDL) increased.
