BEFORE AND AFTER EFFECTS OF USING SUNFIBER

These are the before and after effects of Sunfiber (PHGG) when consumed by various consumers 

This shows that Sunfiber can not only reduce blood sugar levels, reduce cholesterol, reduce waist circumference, reduce HbA1c levels but also increase satiety levels. This prove that Sunfiber is very optimum for the consumers who are suffering from the diabetes.

With dosage of 4gms-15gms of Sunfiber per day, postprandial blood glucose levels and HbA1c levels decreased considerably. Thus, Sunfiber is the most optimum for consumers who are suffering from high blood sugar levels and high HbA1c levels. It can also be used in various application such as dietary supplement, FSMP, food, beverages, RTD and more.
