Gymnema sylvestre
is a stomachic, diuretic, refrigerant, astringent, and tonic.
It has been found
to increase urine output and reduce hyperglycemia in both animal and human studies.
Gymnema's antidiabetic activity appears to be due to a combination of mechanisms. Two ani-
mal studies on beryllium nitrate- and streptozotocin-diabetic rats found Gymnema extracts doubled the
number of insulin-secreting beta cells in the pancreas and returned blood sugars to almost normal.
Gymnema increases the activity of enzymes responsible for glucose uptake and utilization,
and inhib-its peripheral utilization of glucose by somatotrophin and corticotrophin.
Plant extracts have also been
found to inhibit epinephrine-induced hyperglycemia.sales02 at
