Product Description

  • Helps Support Heart Health and High Cholesterol*
  • Helps Relieve Water Retention (Edema)*

A form of the trace element vanadium, which is important for normal cell function and development. It may help maintain blood sugar levels already in the normal range.

There is some evidence that high doses of vanadyl sulfate (100 mg daily, providing 31 mg elemental vanadium) might improve the way people with type 2 diabetes use insulin, the hormone that processes sugar. The study suggested that high-dose vanadium might lower blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. But there are two big concerns about this study. First, it only involved 40 people, so the conclusions need to be confirmed using a bigger study group. Secondly, even if high-dose vanadium works for diabetes, these high doses, used long-term, might not be safe. It's not known if lower doses work as well. For now, don’t use vanadium to treat type 2 diabetes. Wait to see if additional larger studies show benefit and safety.

The most common form of Vanadium supplementation is in the form of Vanadyl Sulfate. However, as this form of Vanadium is ionized in stomach acid, it results  in a very low bioavailability. (As much as 80-90% is lost in the urine). Vanadium Chelavite is the answer in increasing bioavailability of Vanadium.

Directions

The National Institute of Medicine has set the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of vanadium, the highest intake amount for which no unwanted side effects are expected, at 1.8 mg per day of elemental vanadium for adults or as advised by your Health Care Professional. No UL has been set for infants, children, and pregnant or breast-feeding women. In these groups, vanadium intake should be limited to food or infant formula.

Safety

Vanadium is likely in adults, if less than 1.8 mg per day is taken. At higher doses, such as those used to treat diabetes, vanadium frequently causes unwanted side effects including abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, nausea, and gas. It can also cause a greenish tongue, loss of energy, and problems with the nervous system.

Vanadium is unsafe when used in large amounts and for a long time. This increases the risk of serious side effects including kidney damage.

Vanadium might lower blood sugar. People with diabetes should check their blood sugar carefully and watch for signs of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).

Vanadium is used for treating diabetes, low blood sugar, high cholesterol, heart disease, tuberculosis, syphilis, a form of “tired blood” (anemia), and water retention (edema); for improving athletic performance in weight training; and for preventing cancer.

How does it work?
There is some evidence that vanadium might act like insulin, or help to increase the effects of insulin.
