I’ve seen some questions and confusion about what these various herbs in the PureCleanse Detox formula can actually do for those who are looking to lose weight and do a colon cleanse or detox cleanse, so I figured I would take some time to explain about these various ingredients and what their effects are on your body.

Chromium Polynicotinate – one of the most important factors for weight loss is controlling and effecting the consumption of – and the body’s metabolism of – glucose, or sugar. Ideally, individuals will only consume a limited amount of pure glucose in the form of sugars or “simple” carbohydrates such as white flour and white rice, but this assumption is pretty unrealistic when it comes to the typical North American.

Chromium is an element that plays a role in the body’s metabolism of glucose by helping the body to produce insulin, which stabilizes blood sugar levels. Chromium also plays a part in the synthesis of fats and proteins in the body. Chromium Polynicotinate, which is included in the PureCleanse Detox formula, is the most effective type of chromium one can consume. Chromium Polynicotinate binds elemental chromium to vitamin B3 or “niacin”. This makes the included chromium more easily absorbable in the body.

Garcinia Cambogia Extract – Garcinia Cambogia is a small fruit that grows mainly in India and southeast Asia that looks much like a tiny pumpkin. Garcinia Cambogia extract has been included in many different weight loss products over the years, due to its ability to suppress appetite and spur the body’s fat-burning system into a higher gear.

Garcinia Cambogia extract is comprised of hydroxycitric acid, which works to inhibit an enzyme in the body called citrate lyase. Citrate lyase is an enzyme that assist the body with converting extra carbohydrates into fat. The Garcinia Cambogia extract included in the PureCleanse Detox formula helps to block this enzyme, which causes the body to burn off the extra carbohydrates through a process called carbohydrate oxidation. Garcinia Cambogia has also been shown in animal studies to reduce appetite, which can reduce food cravings and the desire to snack.

Gymnema Sylvestre Extract – Gymnema Sylvestre is a herb that is typically grown and cultivated in India, and has been used as a treatment for many illnesses including diabetes, for over two thousand years. Gymnema Sylvestre has been shown in studies to reduce blood sugar levels, and also to actually reduce the taste of sugar in the mouth, which can really kill sugar cravings.

Most scientists that have studied Gymnema Sylvestre have agreed that the active ingredient is gurmenic acid, which has been shown to help various body illnesses such as hypoglycemia, obesity, high cholesterol, anemia and digestion issues.

It is for all of these benefits combined that this extract finds a great home in PureClease Detox – not only does Gymnema Sylvestre extract have an effect on the digestive tract, but it also assists the body with controlling sugar cravings and reducing blood sugar levels.

Hopefully that sheds some light on why PureCleanse Detox has been getting such rave reviews with folks. As a reminder, folks in the USA, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Scotland and Ireland can get a 100% free trial of PureCleanse Detox to see if the cleanse is right for you. Here’s the link:
