Release form
Release form: a collection of medicinal plants in 75 g packs and a collection in the form of coarse powder in filter bags of 3 g (in a package of 20 pieces).
Pharmacodynamics
The therapeutic effect of Sadifit is due to the ability of biologically active substances of the indicated medicinal plants to positively influence carbohydrate metabolism in the body, glucose synthesis in the liver and the process of insulin secretion from pancreatic cells.
Jerusalem artichoke tubers and blueberry leaves included in the collection contain inulin - an organic substance from the group of polysaccharides, which has high biological activity aimed at regulating carbohydrate-fat metabolism and preventing energy deficiency in diabetes. If glucose ceases to be absorbed by the body of a patient with type II diabetes, inulin is able to replace it.
The pods of common beans contain a large amount of the conditionally essential amino acid arginine (2-amino-5-guanidinopentanoic acid), which has an insulin-like effect on metabolism in patients with diabetes.
Stevia is a natural sugar substitute. Of the eight dipertene glycosides contained in stevia leaves, the sweetest are stevioside and rebaudioside - 150-300 times sweeter than sucrose with negligible caloric content. Stevioside reduces the level of glucose and cholesterol in the blood. In diabetes, it prevents the development of both hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), which allows you to significantly reduce the dose of insulin or antidiabetic drugs taken orally.
In addition, stevia contains amino acids, microelements, minerals, pectins, tannins, vitamins and antioxidants, which help restore metabolism in the body, stimulate the digestive organs, liver and pancreas.
Sadifit helps to reduce the concentration of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) in the blood, which is significantly increased in diabetes. Thus, the drug improves the elasticity of the vessel walls and reduces the risk of atherosclerosis. In addition, Sadifit has a pronounced anti-inflammatory and choleretic effect.
