Peer-reviewed science on Beanblock®
Healthy Satiety2
A human study on 12 healthy subjects showed that Beanblock® modulates postprandial glucose, insulin and C-peptide excursions, suitably managing ghrelin secretion and satiety sensations. Oral administration of Beanblock® results in favourable increments in plasma glucose (15.4% v. 26.1% at 30 min), insulin (981% v. 1325% between 45 and 120 min) and C-peptide (350% v. 439% between 30 and 90 min) in comparison to a mixed balanced meal without any supplementation.
