sugar levels for people with diabetes. This formula contains Alpha Lipoic Acid and Mulberries which
are exceptional additives to support the reduction of known negative
effects of diabetes such as vision loss and peripheral neuropathy effects,
Biotin, a B vitamin necessary to properly process glucose, Cinnamon
and Fenugreek, whose studies have shown to improve blood glucose
and cholesterol levels in people with Type II Diabetes, Gymnema
Sylvestre leaves have proven effective in suppressing blood glucose
and promoting the release of insulin from the pancreas. Bitter Melon
may aid in the inhibition of enzymes involved in glucose production. In
addition, Blood Sugar Management contains Chromium Aminokel®, an
ingredient hat assists cells to respond properly to insulin resistance.
Welcome to Wellness!
Alpha Lipoic Acid (100 mg)
Alpha Lipoic acid has been used to treat diabetics by improving glucose transport and metabolism.
ALA may be benefi cial in improving nerve blood fl ow, reducing oxidative stress, and improving nerve
conduction in diabetic neuropathy.
Cinnamon (330 mg)
According to some studies, cinnamon may improve blood glucose and cholesterol levels
in people with Type 2 diabetes. Active ingredients found in cinnamon may work on
insulin receptors to increase insulin sensitivity and help promote glucose uptake into cells
and tissues.
Gymnema (100 mg)
In diabetics, Gymnema leaves have proven effective in suppressing blood glucose and in
promoting the release of insulin from the pancreas.
Bitter Melon (100 mg)
Bitter melon contains several chemical ingredients like Polypeptide P and Charantin that have
shown to have blood-glucose lowering effects. Bitter Melon is thought to aid in the inhibition of
enzymes involved in glucose production.
Biotin (100 mcg)
Biotin is a B vitamin necessary to properly process glucose. Supplementation with Biotin has been
linked to improved glucose metabolism in diabetics. It may also reduce pain from diabetic nerve
damage.
Chromium Aminokel® (66 mcg)

forms of cancer.
Multivitamin & Amino Chelated MineralsFormula Ingredient Breakdown
Chelation
Chelation is a chemical process in which amino acid molecules are bonded to a mineral ion, creating a
stable and more soluble mineral ingredient. Aminokel® Chelated Minerals are able to travel through the
digestive system into the bloodstream with greater ease, resulting in a higher rate of absorption.
“Chelation is simply the process whereby an organic free form amino acid picks up a molecule of a mineral, wraps it within its structure, making it easier for organic organisms then to absorb it. Chelated minerals are far superior in bioavailability than the salts which have low absorption.”
By Dr. Neil D. Ross, Ph D in Pharmacy
A) The WellnessChoice® supplement tablets containing Aminokel® chelated minerals are ingested.
B) Aminokel® minerals pass through the digestive tract and are practically unaffected by the acidic pH of the stomach because they are less reactive than traditional mineral salts, which are typically poorly absorbed by the body.
C) Once past the intestinal wall, the Aminokel® mineral reaches the point of absorption located in the small intestine. Here it is effi ciently broken down and the nutrients are carried throughout the body by the bloodstream.
ABSORPTION OF CHELATED MINERAL VS NON-CHELATED MINERAL
A
B
C
Chelated Mineral Non-Chelated Mineral
Absorption of Iron
According to laboratory studies using iron
marked with radioactive isotopes, part
of the iron is hydrolyzed upon entering
the intestinal wall and part is absorbed
unchanged by the mucosa cells in the
jejunum. Inside the intestinal wall, the
chelate is effi ciently hydrolyzed and used
in a similar way to inorganic iron salts.
Regulation is the same as for iron from
other inorganic sources, so that body iron
reserves regulate the absorption. In other
words, depending how much iron the body
needs determines how much it will absorb.
The limiting step in absorption is passing
through the membrane of the intestinal
wall, which is more effective for the iron
amino acid chelate, than for any other type of iron known to date.
