AOR AOR - Gymnema 75 300mg*, 150 vcaps
AOR Gymnema 75 - A high-potency standardized extract of Gymnema sylvestre, an herb used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine for support of healthy glucose metabolism. Recent science supports this role, which is mediated through gymnemic acids - the terpenoid active molecules. A high dietary glycemic load, coupled with sedentary and stressful lifestyles, has contributed to the alarming incidence of diabetes. Gymnema has proven effective in metabolizing excess glucose in the blood.

Why people keep reordering it
Best suited to: already managing carb-heavy meals with diet and exercise, wants a once-daily capsule instead of splitting doses, following an ayurvedic-style supplement routine.
What the research supports
Each capsule delivers 300 mg of Gymnema sylvestre leaf extract, standardized to 225 mg gymnemic acids. The bottle holds 150 capsules, about five months at one a day.
Research typically used extracts giving about 200 mg gymnemic acids a day.
- Blood sugar (evidence: moderate, from small human clinical trials, open-label studies)
- Gymnemic acids appear to blunt sugar absorption in the gut and support insulin activity after meals. Human trials, mostly small, show improved post-meal blood sugar readings with standardized extracts.
- Sugar cravings (evidence: limited, from mechanistic studies, small human trials)
- Gymnemic acids briefly block the tongue's ability to taste sweetness. Small studies link this to eating less sugar, though most evidence is anecdotal beyond the taste effect itself.

Is it right for you
Worth it if
- already managing carb-heavy meals with diet and exercise
- gymnemic acids are traditionally used alongside lifestyle measures for glucose metabolism, not as a replacement for them
- wants a once-daily capsule instead of splitting doses
- the 75 percent standardization concentrates 225 mg of gymnemic acids into one capsule taken with food
- following an Ayurvedic-style supplement routine
- Gymnema sylvestre leaf extract is the traditional Ayurvedic herb this product is built around
Look elsewhere if
- currently on medication for blood sugar control
- consult with the prescriber first since gymnemic acids can shift glucose handling and the label itself flags a two-hour gap from other medications and a caution for diabetes.h
What to expect
Gymnema is not a fast-acting or perceptible supplement in the way caffeine or a stimulant is. Traditional and modern use frames it as a long-term addition taken with meals over weeks, alongside diet, to support how the body handles glucose from food, and the honest answer is you will not feel it kick in.
How it compares
- Compared with a lower-standardized Gymnema powder or 25 percent extract
- this capsule concentrates 225 mg of gymnemic acids from just 300 mg of extract, so you take less material for a comparable or higher active dose The tradeoff: a highly standardized extract costs more per capsule than raw leaf powder or a lightly standardized product
