Collagen peptide nutraceutical slashes post-meal blood sugar spikes in recent study

Published: 9-Oct-2024

The functional ingredient — on average — reduces the post-meal blood glucose spike by 42%

Rousselot has announced that it will debut the positive results of its first clinical study on Nextida GC at SupplySide West 2024.

The collagen peptide-based nutraceutical is designed to support the body's metabolic balance, and has been shown to be efficacious in the trial. 

During the study period, it was identified that both a 5 and 10g dose of Nextida GC could significantly lower post-meal glucose spikes in healthy adults.

This trend was seen when adults consumed the functional ingredient 30 minutes before a meal. 

Notably, taking the collagen peptide nutraceutical reduced the blood glucose spike observed after a meal by 42% on average.
