Diabetea is made with a combination of Camellia Sinensis and the herb Gymnema Sylvestre, a woody, climbing plant, whose leaves have been used in the treatment of diabetes for over 2000 years by Indian physicians. Its Hindi name is “gurmar”, mEANing, destroyer of sugar. The herb controls the absorption of saccharides in the small intestine and keeps blood sugar levels stable. It protects the pancreas by controlling the secretion of insulin.
