Tri Sense

Cinnamon Bark Extract (Cinnulin PF®) — 125 mg A 20:1 cinnamon extract with no coumarin.

Numerous human studies have shown beneficial effects of cinnamon and extracts of cinnamon. Cinnulin PF® is a unique proprietary, patented cinnamon extract, that has research to support its functions including maintenence of blood sugar and blood pressure within a normal range.

Don't ingest too much coumarin!

Raw cinnamon is rather bulky and contains coumarin, a naturally occurring substance that may be harmful to certain sensitive individuals. Using Cinnulin PF® allows us to reduce the bulk of the capsules (which allows for once daily dosing) while removing all the coumarin from our formula.

Green Tea Leaf Extract — 360 mg 90% Polyphenols, including 162 mg EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate)

Our Tri Sense formula contains 360 milligrams of green tea extract, which is equivalent to about 4 cups of green tea, in terms of the content of polyphenols (including epigallocatechin gallate, or EGCG).

Please be aware that green tea extract contains a small amount of caffeine, approximately 4 milligrams per capsule.

For comparison, a cup of green tea contains 24-45 milligrams of caffeine; a cup of brewed coffee contains 100-200 milligram.

Chromium Polynicotinate (ChromeMate®) — 1000 mcg

Chromium is an essential trace element. Supplementation has been shown to have beneficial effects in people with varying degrees of glucose intolerance.

Chromium is an essential nutrient said to aid in the healthy maintenence of blood sugar.

Combined with niacin—a B-complex vitamin (B3) - it becomes chromium polynicotinate. Many people use it to balance blood sugar levels and sustain healthy cholesterol levels as part of a healthy diet.

Manganese Citrate — 2 mg

An in vivo animal study suggests that the combination of manganese and DCI is much more effective than either alone in maintaining optimum glucose levels. In the study, test subjects' blood glucose levels were reduced (over two hours) by 21% with the administration of DCI. With the addition of manganese, the reduction was increased to 47%.

Manganese is an essential nutrient involved in many chemical processes in the body, including processing of cholesterol, carbohydrates, and protein. It’s been said to aid in symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

Manganese is a mineral found in nuts, legumes, seeds, tea, whole grains, and leafy green vegetables. It is considered an essential nutrient, because the body requires it to function properly

Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) — 1000 IU

Vitamin D deficiency is associated with metabolic risk factors like low "good" cholesterol levels.

Vitamin D3 is a fat-soluble vitamin that helps your body absorb calcium and phosphorus.

There are differences between Vitamin D1, D2, and D3 (Cholecalciferol) Vitamin D is less expensive to produce and therefore is the form most commonly found in fortified food products. D3 (Cholecalciferol) is often known as the “Sunshine D” and is often what most people are deficient in.
