A pilot study concluded taking Phase 3 led to an average reduction in glucose of 31.0% (p=<.001), using repeated measures statistical analyses; and an average reduction in insulin levels of 32% (p=0.0651), using repeated measures. A clinical study of blood glucose levels concluded taking Phase 3 led to an average reduction in glucose of 24.3% (p=<.001), using repeated measures; and an average of 18.4% (p= 0.0001) using the area under the curve statistical analyses. The same study showed that taking Phase 3 led to an average reduction in insulin of 20.0% (p=.008) using repeated measures; and an average of 28.2% (p=<0.01) using the area under the curve.
