Description

Why choose a bitter melon supplement? Stemming from a
tropical fruit-like gourd, this herbal remedy is for people looking to
maintain healthy blood glucose levels, support their digestive health and
promote hormone balance. The fruit itself is a staple in cuisines around the
world, but it also comes in a powdered form for use in things like smoothies
and teas, as well as a wellness supplement. The History of Bitter Melon
Bitter melon, also known as bitter gourd or Momordica charantia, belongs to
the gourd family and is related to vegetables like zucchini, squash, cucumber
and pumpkin. It is the most bitter of all fruits and vegetables that humans
consume. For centuries, bitter melon has been used by indigenous populations
worldwide for its health benefits. It is believed to be useful in maintaining
healthy blood sugar levels and promoting metabolic health. It may also help
maintain healthy cholesterol levels to support overall heart health. Today,
bitter melon is cultivated primarily for its edible fruit, which is used in
many Asian cuisines. In fact, bitter melon fruit can be commonly found in
Asian grocery stores. There are two varieties—Chinese and Indian. Chinese
bitter melon is usually long, pale green in color and covered with wart-like
bumps, whereas Indian bitter melon is narrower with pointed ends and rough,
jagged spikes along the rind. The whole fruit can be prepared in a variety of
ways for different recipes and dishes. Some people prefer to use the juice of
the bitter melon, which is commonly referred to as karela. More About Bitter
Melon Powdered forms of the fruit and its seeds, as well as bitter melon
extracts, are typically used in manufacturing bitter melon dietary
supplements. These supplements can be found both online and in natural foods
stores, pharmacies and stores specializing in herbal products. Bitter melon
is a good source of a handful of important micronutrients, including vitamin
C, vitamin A, folate and powerful antioxidants that offer protective benefits
for cellular health. Bitter melon also contains potassium, zinc and iron. The
recommended doses of bitter melon are 50 to 100 milliliters of juice per day,
one small bitter melon whole fruit per day, or the amount of supplement your
healthcare provider advises. When it comes to bitter melon supplements, your
healthcare provider factors in personal details like age, gender and medical
history to arrive at your recommended dose. Because bitter melon is often
consumed to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels, it’s important to
consult with your healthcare provider before adding it to your wellness
routine if you already take another medication intended to help regulate blood
sugar. Bitter Melon Health Benefits Bitter melon is full of antioxidants,
which can help protect your cells from free radical damage. Research suggests
that it’s also an effective means of maintaining healthy blood glucose levels

health. Why Swanson Bitter Melon? Swanson Bitter Melon is a metabolic herb
