Is the biscuit tin calling by mid-afternoon? One Gluconax tablet a day brings chromium and gymnema together with white kidney bean, mulberry, bilberry leaf and chicory. Ask for the phone call; cash goes to the rider.
Chromium is the tablet's core mineral, and it contributes to keeping glucose at normal levels.
Gymnema leaf is valued in India for making sugary foods taste less sweet.
White kidney bean and mulberry leaf are the plants traditionally taken with food.
A tablet built on chromium and gymnema, with four plant extracts that complete the mix.

5/5
I keep accounts at a school in Embu and sweet tea with mandazi had become my daily snack. Then I would feel heavy and sleepy after.
A friend at church gave me her Gluconax tablet routine: one with the main meal. I cut the mandazi to twice a week and the afternoons are clearer.

One tablet, with the biggest meal of your day. Swallow it whole with water.
Only after speaking to your doctor. The tablet is not a substitute for any prescribed treatment, and levels may need watching.
Check your blood sugar and eat something. If it happens again, stop the tablets and tell your doctor.
It is a plain tablet to be swallowed whole, so you should not taste the herbs. Wind is the more common complaint.
Only a name and a number go in. M-Pesa, card and bank details are never requested.
The supplier's agent calls to settle your town, the drop-off point, the quantity and a convenient day.
Payment is made in shillings to the rider when you collect the parcel, not before.
