DaVinci Labs, Carb-Down With Phase 2® 90 Capsules
As a vegetarian dietary supplement to inhibit carbohydrate absorption, Carb-Down is a unique combination of the Phase 2 brand starch neutralizer, Gymnema Sylvestre, and Chromemate brand chromium polynicotinate. Phase 2 starch neutralizer is an extract from the white kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). Research shows that this extract can block the absorption of carbohydrates (from starch) because it contains a protein component that inhibits the enzyme alpha-amylase from breaking down carbohydrates from foods.
When this enzyme is blocked, the starch that is eaten cannot be converted to fat. In a recent double-blind study in humans, Phase 2 starch neutralizer decreased the percentage of the caloric burden from complex carbohydrates by 60%. The addition of Gymnema Sylvestre and Chromemate is to support appetite control and glucose metabolism.
