Salacia Reticulata Extract | Oblongata Extract

Product Description:

Salacia reticulata extract is derived from a woody climbing plant native to India and Sri Lanka, traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for managing diabetes and metabolic disorders. The extract contains bioactive compounds such as salacinol, mangiferin, and kotalanol, which exhibit potent anti-diabetic and antioxidant properties. It works primarily by inhibiting alpha-glucosidase and alpha-amylase enzymes, thereby reducing postprandial blood glucose levels. Additionally, Salacia reticulata is known to support weight management, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce cholesterol levels. Beyond diabetes care, it may help alleviate oxidative stress and inflammation, promoting overall metabolic health. The extract is often available in capsule, powder, or tea form and is gaining popularity as a natural supplement for blood sugar control.
