The Claim

GLUBLOC significantly delays the time to peak blood glucose concentration (Tmax) and reduces the maximum glucose concentration (Cmax) after a high-carbohydrate meal in healthy adults, indicating a slowing of carbohydrate digestion and absorption.

What the research says

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 lowers the highest blood glucose level and delays when blood glucose peaks after eating a high-carbohydrate meal in healthy adults, which reflects a slower rate of carbohydrate digestion and absorption.

See the scientific wording

GLUBLOC significantly delays the time to peak blood glucose concentration (Tmax) and reduces the maximum glucose concentration (Cmax) after a high-carbohydrate meal in healthy adults, indicating a slowing of carbohydrate digestion and absorption.

Why this might work

When someone eats a high-carb meal, compounds in GLUBLOC block two key enzymes in the small intestine that break down starch and sugar into glucose. This slows down how fast glucose is released from food, so it enters the bloodstream more gradually, resulting in a later and lower peak in blood sugar.

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

    When people took GLUBLOC with a carb-heavy meal, their blood sugar rose more slowly and peaked lower than when they didn’t take it — meaning their bodies absorbed sugar from food at a slower pace.
