NOW® PHASE 2® is an all-natural bean extract
that inhibits alpha-amylase activity, thereby preventing the breakdown of
dietary starches into glucose, allowing carbohydrate from starch to pass through
the system unchanged.
Alpha-amylase is a digestive enzyme that breaks
down starch into smaller carbohydrate units that can subsequently be broken down
into the simple sugar, glucose. Glucose is absorbed directly into the
bloodstream following its uptake by intestinal cells, resulting in a relatively
rapid rise in serum glucose levels. Glucose is used by all cells of the body to
fuel metabolism. Excess glucose, however, can be converted into fat and stored
in adipose tissue.*
