The Claim

GLUBLOC inhibits α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes in vitro in a dose-dependent manner and reduces postprandial glucose spikes by slowing carbohydrate digestion.

Supports is higher

Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.

These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.

How it works
1 study reviewed
In plain English

GLUBLOC blocks two digestive enzymes that break down carbohydrates, resulting in lower blood glucose levels after meals.

See the scientific wording

GLUBLOC inhibits α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes in vitro in a dose-dependent manner, which may explain its ability to reduce postprandial glucose spikes by slowing carbohydrate digestion.

Why this might work

GLUBLOC blocks enzymes in the small intestine that break down starch and sugar into glucose, so glucose enters the bloodstream more slowly, resulting in a smaller and delayed rise in blood sugar after eating.

  1. Study: A ready-to-mix nutraceutical supplement (GLUBLOC) lowers postprandial blood glucose levels in healthy individuals — A randomised, placebo-controlled, crossover study

    GLUBLOC made blood sugar rise more slowly after meals, which is exactly what you'd expect if it blocked the enzymes that break down sugar and starch. So yes, it likely works the way the claim says.
