Glycation

Ioniplex® is a natural glycation buffer. Glycation, among other things is one of the root causes of blood sugar issues. Ioniplex has been shown in multiple studies to support healthy blood sugar levels naturally. With its plethora of other benefits, such as high antioxidant levels and inherent
nutrient values, Ioniplex® is a safe and highly effective addition to any
blood sugar regimen.

What Causes Glycation?

Glycation is tied in part to the glycemic index. This food classification system measures how foods, particularly carbohydrates, impact blood sugar levels.  When you take a bite of a cheeseburger or dessert it’s digested and absorbed into the bloodstream. Blood sugar concentrations increase and circulate throughout the body so that cells can access nutrients to produce energy. But there’s only so much sugar that cells need and it’s a very miniscule amount. Excess sugar in the blood idly circulates throughout the body with two risky outcomes:

• Glycation. Instead of being used to produce energy, excess sugar bumps and bashes against our cells until glycation occurs. This compromises the integrity, structure and function of lipids and foundational proteins.
  
  
• Fat Storage. As excess sugars bombard our cells, they travel throughout the body, arrive at the liver, and are eventually stored as fat.
