GlucoTru Pro is a dietary supplement marketed by Empower Health Labs and others. It’s designed to support metabolic health—especially blood sugar control—using a blend of natural ingredients. The product positions itself as a non-pharmaceutical aid, rather than a treatment for diabetes or other metabolic conditions
The company promotes transparency, claiming clear labeling free from proprietary blends or artificial fillers, and emphasizing educational, consumer-first messaging . It also states manufacturing in GMP‑certified, FDA‑registered facilities, though no product has formal drug‑like approval .
Key Ingredients
GlucoTru Pro combines over a dozen botanical and micronutrient components, each with a putative role in blood sugar regulation:
Berberine – Supports insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism
Chromium (Picolinate) – A trace element enhancing insulin action
Cinnamon Bark – May improve fasting glucose and insulin effectiveness
Bitter Melon – Contains insulin-mimicking compounds to help regulate glucose .
Gymnema sylvestre – Reduces sugar absorption and cravings
Alpha‑Lipoic Acid (ALA) – Antioxidant that supports glucose use and nerve health .
Banaba Leaf Extract – Helps lower blood glucose and support lipid metabolism
Vanadium – May improve glucose uptake in cells.
Magnesium, Zinc, Biotin, Manganese – Essential minerals for enzyme activity and glucose control .
Licorice, Turmeric, Green Tea, Juniper Berry, Guggul, White Mulberry, Yarrow – Add antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, metabolic and digestive benefits .
The formulation aims at a broad-spectrum metabolic approach: from insulin signaling to sugar uptake, oxidative stress reduction, inflammation control, and hunger regulation
Mechanism of Action
GlucoTru Pro works on multiple fronts:
Enhance insulin sensitivity – Via berberine, chromium, cinnamon, bitter melon, and more, promoting activation of pathways like AMPK
Slow intestinal glucose uptake – Botanicals like Gymnema, banaba, yarrow, and bitter melon limit sugar absorption
Support pancreatic β‑cell health – Licorice and yarrow may help preserve insulin-producing cells
Combat oxidative stress – Antioxidants (ALA, curcumin, green tea, licorice, turmeric) protect against metabolic inflammation
This layered approach is consistent with holistic strategies for metabolic health, though most ingredients have modest individual effects.
