Why We Love It:

If you're looking for human-grade ingredients for enhancing your dog or cat's meals, Yacon Leaf by Natura Petz Organics Petz Kitchen can support your pets' glycemic and glucose levels.

YACON LEAF may have an important dietary role for both pancreatic health and metabolic function. The metabolic system involves organs such as the thyroid, liver, kidneys, and pancreas. Signs indicative of metabolic stress may include changes in insulin levels, immune system challenges, excess weight, or fatty deposits. One of the major roles of the pancreas is that it helps create the hormone, insulin, as well as helps control body system metabolics.

Diabetes is a deficiency of the pancreatic hormone called insulin. YACON LEAF may work to help inhibit the destruction of pancreatic cells, which are charged with creating the hormone insulin and may help support pancreatic function in its creation of adequate insulin, digestive enzymes as well as how the body utilizes insulin. The regulation of insulin by the pancreas also has an impact on both liver and immune health.

YACON LEAF  may help improve the glycemic index, help maintain glycemic control, help inhibit insulin deficiency, may help create a lower fasting glucose rate, while potentially increasing insulin sensitivity in the body.

YACON LEAF's liver protecting activities may also affect diabetic conditions in that may help protect the liver by inhibiting the fat accumulated in the liver, may help improve blood parameters and cholesterol levels in diabetics, may help limit excessive oxidative damage as well as may help promote the absorption of glucose in the liver.

YACON LEAF may help perform important roles in helping limit cellular damage and may help inhibit peripheral neuralgia common to diabetes, important actions for all mammals either affected by diabetes or at risk of diabetes.

YACON LEAF may help nutritionally support blood sugar levels; its antioxidant value may help fight free radical damage; may help counteract symptoms of diabetes I & Diabetes II; may help reduce glucose levels in the blood; may help improve the glycemic index; may reduce insulin resistance and may help support healthy gut flora and improve digestion. YACON LEAF is not a cure for diabetes.

YACON LEAF has shown to help benefit 75% of diabetic test subjects by presenting less insulin intolerance after 6 months of use, with 92% of subjects requiring reduced insulin levels overall.
