How I Stopped My Constant Cravings - When Willpower Had Already Failed

In this video below, I explain the blood sugar spike-and-crash cycle that had been driving my constant cravings.

1. Your blood sugar spikes and crashes 4-6 times a day. Reducose® has been studied it can stop the spike at the source.

A craving isn't hunger. It's a blood sugar emergency. When you eat carbohydrates, an enzyme called alpha-glucosidase breaks them into glucose that floods your bloodstream all at once. Reducose® stops the spike before it ever happens - so the crash never comes, and the craving never starts. You finish lunch and you're not thinking about food again at 3pm. You eat dinner and you don't raid the cupboard at 9pm. Your day is finally yours again.

More info on the study:

  • In a 2024 Oxford Brookes trial, 37 adults took Reducose® before a real meal. Their blood sugar spike was 40% lower and insulin 41% lower vs placebo. Thondre PS et al. (2024), Nutrients

2. Your insulin receptors are dysfunctional - and that's what's making the cravings constant. Chromax® has 8 studies showing it cuts hunger by nearly a quarter.

When your cells stop responding to insulin properly, sugar can't get into them. Your pancreas pumps out more insulin to compensate. This is insulin resistance - and most people have it without knowing. Chromax® is the patented form of chromium picolinate, clinically proven to drop hunger by 24% and reduce daily food intake by 25% - without dieting, without restriction, without willpower.

3. Your gut hormones aren't firing the way they used to. Apple cider vinegar reactivates GLP-1 - the same hormone Ozempic targets - naturally.

Your body already makes its own appetite-control hormone - it's called GLP-1, the same one Ozempic mimics synthetically. As you age, especially under stress or hormonal shifts, that signal weakens. You eat enough but never feel full. Apple cider vinegar reactivates GLP-1 naturally - no side effects, no prescription. And we put it in the world's first ACV oral strip, so it absorbs through your tongue in seconds.

More info on the study:

  • Nutrients In a 12-week study of 155 adults, daily apple cider vinegar reduced body weight, waist circumference, and visceral fat without lifestyle changes. Kondo T et al. (2009), Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry

4. Most cravings supplements give you one fix. Regulate addresses all three with patented ingredients in one strip.

Cravings have three causes happening at the same time - the blood sugar spike, the broken insulin signal, and the gut hormone that's stopped firing. Most supplements fix one. That's why they fail. Regulate is the only product that addresses all three with patented ingredients in a single strip. Reducose® stops the spike. Chromax® fixes the insulin signal. Apple cider vinegar reactivates GLP-1. Three mechanisms. One strip. Sixty seconds.

More info on the study:

  • Blood Sugar Spike - In a 2024 study, Reducose® reduced post-meal blood sugar spikes by 40% — stopping the crash that drives cravings. Thondre PS et al. (2024), Nutrients
  • Insulin Resistance - Clinical studies show chromium (Chromax®) improves insulin sensitivity and helps restore normal glucose metabolism over time. Anton SD et al. (2008); Martin J et al. (2006)
  • Hunger Hormone (GLP-1) - In a 12-week trial, apple cider vinegar supported reductions in body fat and activates GLP-1 — the hormone that signals fullness. Kondo T et al. (2009), Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry

5. Most supplements lose up to 80% of the active before it reaches your blood. The Regulate oral strip is 5.8x more bioavailable than a capsule.

When you swallow a capsule, the contents pass through your stomach acid, your gut, and your liver. The liver metabolises a significant portion of the active ingredients before they reach your bloodstream. Regulate is an oral strip. It dissolves on your tongue in seconds. The actives absorb directly through the lining of your mouth into your bloodstream - bypassing your stomach, your gut, and your liver entirely.

More info on the study:

  • Research shows oral strips deliver up to 5.8× more active ingredient into the bloodstream vs capsules by bypassing the gut and liver (first-pass effect). Peak levels were also 1.8× higher. Nguyen et al. (2022); Pharmaceutics (2024) review

The Results You Can Expect 
With Regulate™

I wore a continuous glucose monitor to show exactly what happens when you eat with and without Regulate™ .

 

Without it - my blood sugar spikes sharply after a meal, then crashes. That crash is what tells your brain you're hungry again - even when you've just eaten.

 

With Regulate™  - the spike is dramatically smaller. No crash. No false hunger signal. That graph on the right shows this.

"If you're frustrated, sceptical, and tired of cravings that hijack every diet you start - I made Regulate to finally put an end to your search."

P.S we are so confident it works, we have a 60-day money-back guarantee

How does it work?

Regulate is taken just before meals to help your body process food more efficiently. By supporting steadier energy after eating, it helps you:

 

- Feel fuller for longer

- Experience fewer cravings

- Avoid overeating or snacking between meals

- Maintain more consistent energy throughout the day

 

When hunger and cravings are calmer, eating less happens naturally - without forcing willpower or restriction.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly will I notice a difference?

Most notice reduced cravings and more stable energy within 3-7 days of using Regulate before meals. The full effect on blood sugar balance builds over 30-60 days of consistent daily use. Some customers feel the difference from day one - especially the absence of the usual 3pm crash.

How often do I need to take Regulate™?

We recommend taking two strips before your biggest carb heavy meal, you can take daily or when you need.

Can I take Regulate™ with medication?

If you're currently taking any medications or have a medical condition, we always recommend checking with your healthcare provider before adding any supplement to your routine.

Does Regulate™ contain any caffeine or stimulants?

No, Regulate™ is completely free of caffeine or stimulants. You’ll enjoy steady energy throughout the day, without crashes and restful sleep at night.

Is it suitable for vegans or vegetarians?

Yes! Regulate™ contains no gluten, dairy, animal products, egg, soy, nuts, artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors, fragrances, or preservatives. It’s clean, gentle, and made for sensitive systems.

Is Regulate™ suitable for men too?

Yes, absolutely. Regulate™ is designed for anyone looking to improve digestion, reduce bloating, and support gut health - regardless of gender. Many of our male customers see great results and use it daily as part of their wellness routine.

I've tried other supplements and nothing has worked. Why is this different?

Most supplements target symptoms. Regulate targets the cause. The key ingredient - Reducose® white mulberry leaf extract - has been proven in 7 human clinical trials to reduce blood sugar spikes by up to 42% after eating. That's not a marketing claim. That's published, peer-reviewed science from Oxford Brookes University. Most supplement brands can't say that.

How does it help with weight loss?

Regulate doesn't burn fat directly. What it does is stop the blood sugar crashes that trigger cravings and overeating - which is the real reason most people struggle to lose weight. Less cravings → less eating → fewer calories in → weight loss happens naturally, without restriction. It works with your biology rather than fighting it.

What's in it exactly?

Regulate contains three clinically-studied active ingredients:

 

- Reducose® - patented white mulberry leaf extract, proven to reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes by up to 42% in 7 clinical trials
- Chromax® - patented chromium picolinate, clinically studied to support healthy insulin sensitivity and blood sugar regulation
- Apple Cider Vinegar - long used to support healthy glucose metabolism

 

All delivered in a natural guava-flavoured dissolving oral strip. No fillers. No bulking agents. Nothing unnecessary.

What does it taste like?

Natural guava. Customers consistently say it's one of the most pleasant supplements they've ever taken - it tastes like a sweet, mild guava candy. No bitter aftertaste, no chalky texture. Just dissolves in seconds.

I'm going through menopause - is this suitable for me?

Yes, and it was largely formulated with women like you in mind. Menopause significantly affects how your body handles blood sugar and insulin - which is why so many women gain weight and struggle with cravings during and after menopause despite eating the same as before. Regulate directly supports the biological processes that menopause disrupts. Several of our most loyal customers are menopausal women who say it's the first supplement that's actually made a difference.
