Which blood sugar supplement ingredients have been studied in people?
Ingredients studied in people include cinnamon, chromium, berberine, and alpha lipoic acid. NCCIH says the research is mixed, and none has been shown to replace diabetes care. Some can affect blood sugar along with your medicine, which may raise the risk of lows. Read labels closely, avoid proprietary blends that hide amounts, and review any product with your doctor.
