Get ready to impress your doctor with even better glucose numbers!
Glucose Essentials is now even better! A brand new Swiss discovery called Portusana™ Purslane Extract takes my acclaimed formula to a whole new level. It not only promotes normal blood sugar levels and better insulin sensitivity—but helps lower the critical hemoglobin A1C blood sugar marker! But this is more than numbers on a blood test—these are benefits you’re going to feel! By helping to even out the blood sugar spikes and drops, Portusana helps to give you a slow, steady supply of energy.
Glucose Essentials gives you:
- Portusana™ to support normal blood sugar—and help lower hemoglobin A1C! Dr. Whitaker just added a brand new Swiss discovery called Portusana Purslane Extract to Glucose Essentials. It not only supports normal blood sugar levels, but is clinically shown to help lower the critical A1C blood sugar marker. Plus, it helps to even out blood sugar spikes and drops, giving you a slow steady supply of energy!
- Vanadyl sulfate mimics insulin—helping to keep blood sugar steady. Vanadyl sulfate has been one of Dr. Whitaker’s top-recommended nutrients for blood sugar support for more than 30 years. The reason is it has an insulin-like effect in your body, helping to transport glucose into your cells—benefiting both your blood sugar and A1C levels.
- Silbinol™ to move sugar out of your bloodstream and into your cells. Silbinol™, a specialized extract of P. marsupium from the Indian Kino tree, helps to move glucose out of your bloodstream and into your cells more rapidly. In an open-label trial participants experienced an average fasting blood sugar drop of more than 32 points—and in another study an average drop of almost 56 points.
- Chromium helps to overcome insulin resistance—naturally. Chromium, an essential trace mineral, facilitates the action of insulin, glucose, protein, and fat metabolism. It enhances the body’s sensitivity to insulin for sugar and fat metabolism, and it facilitates insulin’s uptake of glucose into the cells.
- Glucohelp™ helps to activate transporters on your cells—so they let glucose in. Glucohelp™, a specialized extract of banaba leaf, is standardized to 18% corosolic acid—the ingredient that helps to activate the glucose transporters on the surface of your cells, so they let glucose in. Research also suggests it improves your body’s ability to produce and utilize insulin.
- GS4 Gymnema helps slow the release of sugar into your bloodstream. Research shows 400 mg of GS4 Gymnema—the form and dose you get in Glucose Essentials—helps with blood sugar control by slowing the release of sugar from your digestive tract into your bloodstream.
All together, Glucose Essentials
- Promotes normal blood glucose levels
- Supports normal hemoglobin A1C levels
- Improves glucose tolerance
- Enhances glucose transport in your body
- Increases insulin sensitivity
- Keeps blood sugar levels in the normal range
- Fights free-radical damage
From your blood sugar to your A1C levels, your doctor is going to want to know your secret!
Here are a few stories from some of the many thousands of people who have been taking it for years. “My glucose levels have been getting better and better. I now usually have morning readings of 110-120.”* — Marjorie Delaney “I have been using Glucose Essentials for about 1 year. My A1C has been reduced, as well as my daily readings. After reading your materials, I have lost about 35 lbs with about 15-20 more to go.”* — Gary Smith
“Within a week my fasting glucose dropped from the 130s to the 120s. I gave my doctor a bottle of your Glucose Essentials and explained what I had done. He said, ‘Whatever you are doing keep doing it.’ I am.”* — Bill
*Results based on the original Glucose Essentials formula. Individual results will vary.
I'm always looking for the most advanced ways to keep you healthy, and your blood sugar is no exception. My latest Glucose Essentials formula is based on the most up-to-date research, and it's the foundation of his Advanced Glucose Program. I also recommend that you take the Forward Plus Daily Regimen to meet all your daily nutrient needs. Blood sugar and insulin play key roles in several important health areas. That's why I encourage you to support your glucose levels by eating a healthy, well-balanced diet, exercising regularly, and taking targeted nutrients - all of which help maintain normal blood sugar levels.

Glucose esssentials ineffective
Reviewed by Bon Vivant (Posted on 7/8/11)I have been taking Glucose Essentials as suggested for 3 weeks. My glucose level has not changed on my daily readings. My diet is controlled and I exercise regularly. I have felt no change in my energy levels. However, my daily ( 3 times ) glucose readings have remained unchanged. I am discouraged from using this any further.

This supplement is a lifesaver!
Reviewed by Sabrina (Posted on 6/22/11)Rating This supplement is a lifesaver. It is incredibly effective. I don't go to a doctor, the main reason I know I have blood sugar issues is the fierce thirst that I get when it is out of whack. Glucose Essentials smooths it all out, brings my body back into balance, and the intense thirst goes away. It has also helped me to heal from a very pernicious case of Candida. What a blessing. I'm so very thankful Dr. Whitaker has devoted his life to researching and making profound and natural healing alternatives available to the public! He is a national treasure!

Positive Results
Reviewed by David (Posted on 12/19/10)Rating I decided I wanted to give off the SolaStar insulin I was taking along with metformin and glimiperide to control my Type 2 diabetes, so I tried Glucose Essentials. I started off with the 3 capsules per day before each meal. It might have been better to start off with 1 capsule, however; it took 3 months for my digestive tract to settle down. I've been taking it for six months now. My A1C dropped from 7.3 to 6.9. My doctor was a bit wary about my stopping the insulin, but when he saw the A1C he said to keep it up. It controls my fasting blood sugar as well as the insulin did, and controls the after-meal peak better than insulin did. A side effect is that it makes me feel fuller much more quickly; I'm eating about half of what I used to and still feel full, and I've lost 20 pounds.

Reviewed by Willard U. (Posted on 12/9/10)Rating Taking 3 capsules a day of "Glucose Essentials" does bring down my Glucose numbers overall. I feel much better physically, mentally all over. I will certainly stay with the program for now. I look forward to seeing my morning numbers now, with the success of "Glucose Essentials" .

good overall
Reviewed by helpful wife (Posted on 12/9/10)... I recommend the Forward Plus multivitamins along with the glucose essentials, the fish oil and the cinnamon complex. Dr. Whitaker's book on reversing Diabetes is a must read if you are serious about getting off the prescription meds and insulin. Excerise and eat right and take the vitamins and supplements. They do work. I did not rate 5 stars because i think they are too expensive.
