Glucose is the primary source of energy in the human body. After eating starchy food your blood sugar level rises. Glucose levels are low in the morning when you wake up and before breakfast. Normal level of blood sugar for non-diabetic considered to be between 70 to 100 milligrams per deciliter. For those who are diabetic, the level should be between 70 to 130 mg/dL before meals and less than 180 mg/dL after meals. Persistent high blood sugar levels can lead to long-term health problems including heart disease, and eye, kidney and nerve damage. Researchers find that the epigallocatechin 3-gallate or commonly called EGCG found in green tea lowers the blood sugar spikes after eating starchy food such as white bread, can be lowered by about 50 percent. They specifically find that EGCG is effective in how starch is broken down by the body to convert to energy and not to sugar. This is why Cellan Diet Pills contain 100 percent green tea extract to keep your blood sugar level in check.
