PGX Daily Granules Fiber Unflavored 5.3 oz (150 Grams)

PGX^® (PolyGlycopleX^®) Daily Granules are an unsweetened highly viscous combination of well purified water soluble polysaccharides derived from konjac root, sodium alginate, and xantham gum. Viscous fibers have been shown to reduce postprandial glucose concentrations and lower total and LDL cholesterol, primarily by forming a gel matrix which slows gastric emptying. These viscous granules also trap ingested carbohydrates and lipids inside the gel matrix, decreasing the transport as well as the uptake of glucose and cholesterol at absorptive surfaces. 

Clinical trials have shown that in addition to the benefits of glucose and lipid reduction, highly viscous fibers were found to lower insulin secretion and C-peptide in response to carbohydrate meals, and to lower serum fructosamine, a marker of glycemic control. Viscous fibers effectively reduce the glycemic index of foods consumed simultaneously, by preventing the postprandial spikes in blood glucose concentration. Fiber viscosity has also been associated with increased satiety and reduced appetite, allowing for reduced caloric intake and weight loss. PGX^® Daily Granules allow for easy dosing, with 5 g of PGX^® per scoop, and are unflavored to allow mixing with a variety of beverages and foods.

Drug Interactions: A reduction in serum glucose concentrations by PGX^® may require a lowering of the dosage of any antidiabetic medications, and serum glucose should be monitored closely to prevent hypoglycemia. Oral medications may need to be taken one hour prior or two hours after PGX^®, to prevent a reduction in their absorption. Similarly, fat-soluble vitamins should be taken separately.
