What are the Reliv results for the potential of Reliv Now® + LunaRich X to support weight loss, heart health and metabolic wellness?

A recent study of pigs supplemented daily with Reliv Now® and LunaRich X for eight weeks showed significant improvement in key biomarkers associated with cardiovascular and metabolic health.nnTest subjects recorded a decrease in weight gain and a 65% reduction in free fatty acid (FFA) levels, a biomarker associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome. The decrease in FFA levels was accompanied by coordinate increases in plasma levels of the hormones leptin (+64%) and adiponectin (+60%). Leptin signals the brain when the body had enough food, producing the feeling of fullness. Adiponectin (ADP) is a hormone from fat cells that controls energy metabolism, increases insulin sensitivity and supports weight loss. The two hormones perform complementary actions and can have additive effects on weight management.nnStudy Results

Is Reliv GlucAffect clinically proven to help with healthy blood sugar values and weight loss?.

Test subjects taking GlucAffect® with LunaRich® lowered their blood fasting glucose by an average of 30%, moving from elevated glucose levels to healthy blood sugar values. The lowered blood glucose was confirmed by the average HbA1c (glycosylated hemoglobin) level, which also moved into the healthy range.nnNo significant glucose lowering was found in the control group. In addition, those individuals taking GlucAffect lost an average of nearly 16 pounds during the eight-week period, slimming to an extent on average that they achieved their optimal BMI (body mass index). No significant effect on body weight was found in the control group.nnFull Study (PDF)
