Acarbose stabilizes blood sugar and suppresses appetite

Acarbose slows down the absorption of sugars and starches, curtailing sugar ‘highs’ and leaving you feeling full

After eating, our bodies digest sugar and starches from the food to produce a rush of sugar in the blood that leads to feelings of lethargy and mood swings. Slowing down the rate at which the sugar and starches are digested reduces this peaking effect and stabilizes blood sugar levels throughout the day, preventing any fluctuation of energy and temperament.

Furthermore, the reduced rate of digestion leaves one feeling full for longer. In this way, Acarbose can aid weight loss by acting as a powerful appetite suppressant.

Acarbose also has important implications for the ageing process. Excess insulin is one of Sear’s four pillars of pro-aging, (for more information on this see Dr. Dean and Professor Vladimir's Neuroendocrine Theory of Aging). As we become older our bodies produce more insulin to combat the higher levels of blood sugar (see graph showing increased insulin release with age). Using Acarbose to reduce the amount of sugar the body produces will in turn reduce the levels of insulin produced. For this same reason, Acarbose is often used in the treatment of diabetes.

Dosage:
For anti-ageing and appetite suppression, take one 50mg Acarbose tablet once, twice or three times daily. The tablets should be chewed and swallowed prior to a meal or with the first mouthful of food.

Side effects:
Flatulence, diarrhoea and abdominal pain have been noted in rare cases with initial use. If this occurs reduce (or stop) the dosage then gradually increase and these problems should disappear.

Caution:
Do not use Acarbose if you have any liver or kidney conditions. Avoid use if you suffer from intestinal, inflammation or ulceration disorders and seek the advice of your physician before use if you are diabetic.
