A vegetarian dietary supplement to help inhibit carbohydrate absorption.* Carb-Down™ with Phase 2® is a unique combination of Phase 2® brand starch neutralizer, Gymnema sylvestre and ChromeMate® brand chromium polynicotinate. Phase 2® starch neutralizer is an extract from the white kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). Research shows that this extract can block the absorption of carbohydrates (from starch) because it contains a protein component that inhibits the enzyme alpha-amylase from breaking down carbohydrates from foods.* When this enzyme is blocked, the starch that’s eaten cannot be converted to fat.* In a recent doubleblind study in humans, Phase 2® starch neutralizer decreased the percentage of caloric burden from complex carbohydrates by 60%.*
The addition of Gymnema sylvestre and ChromeMate® is to support normal appetite control and glucose metabolism.*

Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take 1 capsule with water before any meal containing carbohydrates from starch.
