Balancing Glucose:
The Science of Glycaemic
Response Control
Balancing the uptake and utilisation of glucose is one
of the most important physiological processes of the
body, since glucose is a key fuel. The food we eat is bro-
ken down by our digestive system and nutrients enter the
blood stream where they travel to the liver, the hub for glu-
cose storage as glycogen, for redistribution. Hormones such
as insulin and glucagon help regulate the blood glucose level
and the delivery via the blood to the cells for energy produc-
tion.

Throughout our lives maintaining healthy, effective glucose

balance is vital. If your blood glucose gets too high and for
prolonged periods, you may be diagnosed with prediabetes
or type 2 diabetes. If not controlled, high blood glucose can
react with and harm body tissues and disturb natural fat stor-
age systems leading to weight gain, inflammation, and even
increase the risk of heart disease and other chronic diseases.
 Today’s Reality:
Statistics on
Glucose Imbalance
ACCORDING TO THE INTERNATIONAL DIABETES FEDERATION
(IDF)- AFRICA REGION

2019 2045
(Adults) (Adults)
Living with Diabetes – Living with Diabetes -
19 million* estimated 47 million
Prediabetes – Prediabetes –
45 million* estimated 110 million

Currently, 60% of adults with diabetes do not know

that they have it, which makes the IDF Africa Region
one with the highest percentage of undiagnosed
people of all IDF regions.1
People with prediabetes who take part in a structured
lifestyle change programme can cut their risk of
developing type 2 diabetes by as much as 58%.

Leading causes of glucose imbalance

For an increasing portion of the population the ability to
maintain glucose balance and control has been compromised.
Driven by years of over-ingestion of highly processed foods
and/or beverages loaded with sugar, the body can be
overwhelmed and may eventually lose the ability to regulate
blood glucose levels. Inactivity, medications, stress and
changes in hormone levels can also contribute to glucose
imbalance. This problem is often further exacerbated by
lowered natural insulin production and insulin resistance
as we age. e

Botanical Balance
#2514 – 120 tablets

No artificial anything! No artificial colours, flavours,

sweeteners, or preservatives added.
 Combining Ancient Wisdom &
Modern Science
NeoLife’s exclusive formula combines ancient
wisdom drawn from Indian (Ayurvedic) and traditional
Chinese herbal medicine, backed by leading-edge
modern clinical science. These powerful whole food
ingredients include a proprietary Botanical Blend with
Chromium and Alpha-Lipoic Acid.
Chromium
Derived from yeast, the most bioactive form. Chromium
helps the body metabolise carbohydrates and fats and
provides support for healthy glucose metabolism. It is a
critical cofactor with insulin and helps maintain normal
cellular responsiveness to insulin.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid
Helps protect against damage caused by free radicals.
Also helps support normal blood sugar levels and the
cells' ability to utilise insulin.
