The Organicsio Advantage
Our Gymnema sylvestre stock is sourced exclusively from sustainable, controlled agro-climatic zones in Central India to ensure optimal triterpenoid saponin biosynthesis. Organicsio employs rigorous High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) to verify the chemical profile, ensuring the absence of adulterants like G. montanum. Each batch undergoes 4-stage heavy metal testing (Pb, As, Cd, Hg) to meet global pharmacopeial standards for metabolic health formulations.
Botanical Morphology & Raw Material
Phytochemical Profile
The primary bioactive constituents are a complex mixture of oleanane-type triterpenoid saponins collectively known as Gymnemic Acids (I-VII). Our standardized extracts also preserve secondary metabolites including gymnemasaponins, the polypeptide gurmarin (responsible for taste modification), stigmasterol, and quercitol, providing a full-spectrum “Entourage Effect” for receptor binding efficacy.
Commercial Applications
- Blood Glucose Management: Adjunct therapy formulations for Type 2 Diabetes management.
- Weight Management: Metabolic support supplements targeting carbohydrate absorption.
- Taste Modification: Lozenges and teas designed to suppress sugar cravings via taste receptor blockade.
