If you were to compare the sugar in Biometics products and the sugar in fruit and vegetables, you would find that they are identical. The sugar found in Biometics products is fructose, which is a simple sugar that is found naturally in honey, fruits, and parts of plants.

Clinical studies have shown that honey is a better choice for diabetics than sugar. Honey requires lower levels of insulin compared to regular white sugar and does not raise blood sugar levels as rapidly as white sugar, due to the fructose it contains. However, diabetics should always consult with their doctor first before including honey in their diet. Every diabetic needs to ask their doctor how much honey is o.k. for them to use as a sweetener in tea or on toast.

The sweeteners used in our products are either non-nutritive or sugar-alcohols, both of which have been found to have an insignificant impact on insuline production and blood-sugar levels. However, sugar alcohols are still absorbed by the body, albeit more slowly than sugars themselves, and therefore can still raise blood-sugar levels, depending on the nature of your condition, your age, weight, and a number of other factors.

Sucralose is added to Bios Life™ to give it a pleasant orange taste. And some people have asked me why bioslife is sweet to taste and is it safe if they have high blood sugar levels.

Levolar Forte™ is a dietary supplement only and despite of what you may have heard or read in the medical journals is not being promoted as a treatment.
