AQ Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Announces Results of JBA Brands GlucoTrojan (R) Study: Findings Show Reduction in Sugar Absorption

GARDEN GROVE, Calif., September 3, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Affordable Quality Pharmaceuticals (AQP), established in 2000, has developed a powder supplement, GlucoTrojan, indicating to "reduce the absorption of sugars and carbs up to 40 percent," according to a study by Tastermonial®. 

In 2022, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that "96 million people aged 18 years or older have prediabetes (38.0% of the adult US population)." For the elderly population, "26.4 million people aged 65 years or older (48.8%) have prediabetes." This is increasing the risk factors of acute and long-term health complications, high medical costs, and premature death for many. 

Under AQP's nutraceutical brand Joy | Beauty | Ageless (JBA), GlucoTrojan was developed. GlucoTrojan, a powder that is sprinkled over food or added to a drink and ingested before or during a meal, is easily implemented into a balanced diet to reduce the spike and crash in blood sugar. 

The Tastermonial study observed the real-world efficacy of GlucoTrojan when taken with high-carbohydrate meals. It was conducted on 50 healthy adults over a period of 14 days, ingesting the powder twice daily. This powdered supplement is formulated with the proprietary Trojan22® blend of fermented Mangifera Indica Leaf extract and Stem Banana extract with the patented ingredient "Reducose®," a novel White Mulberry Leaf extract that has been scientifically proven to lower the glucose response after a meal.

AQP President Tracy Nguyen, born in Vietnam, was accustomed to a traditional Asian diet, which included a high intake of carb-heavy foods, like white rice. The 2022 CDC report also stated, "Nationwide, more than 1 in 5 people who have diabetes don't know they have it. But for Asian American people, that number is higher — around 1 in 3." Nguyen realized she was part of the population who did not know they were prediabetic and was eventually diagnosed. With her biological engineering education and successful business venture in manufacturing pharmaceuticals in the U.S., Nguyen and her team of doctors and scientists created natural products that reduce the glucose response, simultaneously promoting healthy insulin and blood sugar levels. These benefits lead to helping people maintain a healthy weight. She is now manufacturing supplements and food products in the U.S. as JBA Brands and has launched a line of GlucoTrojan products. 

GlucoTrojan can be taken through four products:

1. GlucoTrojan® powder comes in individual packets and can be taken with food or mixed into drinks.
2. Collagen GlucoTrojan® helps prevent glycation and delivers 8,000 mg of collagen peptides for youthful skin, hair, nails, and joints. 
3. Hello Healthy Glucose Coffee with GlucoTrojan® is made with aromatic instant coffee, amino acids, botanical extracts, cordyceps, and ABALife™ fig extract to help support healthy blood sugar.
4. Hello Healthy Glucose Cacao with GlucoTrojan® starts with a base of raw, chocolatey cacao, and contains the same blood sugar-balancing ingredients featured in Hello Healthy Glucose Coffee.
