Corevalin, blood sugar and diabetes: an honest answer

Corevalin blood sugar: what the claim actually says

Corevalin is intended as a daily nutrient routine for adults aged 40 and over. The only authorised health statements relate to zinc and chromium, and the second is the one behind searches for Corevalin blood sugar:

In plain terms, chromium helps to maintain blood glucose levels that are already normal, as part of a normal diet. It is not a way of bringing down a raised reading, and it does not stand in for medical care. The distinction matters, because maintaining a normal level and dealing with a high one are entirely different things.

Corevalin for diabetes: what you should know

Corevalin is not a medicine. It is not a treatment for diabetes, and it is not meant for the prevention or relief of any disease. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes, or you take medication of any kind, speak to your GP or pharmacist before adding a new supplement.

A food supplement cannot take the place of prescribed therapy or of a balanced diet. Corevalin supplies nutrients that the body uses in normal functions; in the case of chromium, that is the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels, and the wording is deliberately narrow. Anyone hoping Corevalin will manage their diabetes will be let down and is far better off with proper medical advice.

If you are monitoring your glucose at home or are following a care plan from your doctor or practice nurse, do not change anything on the strength of a supplement. Tell your healthcare team what you take, so that it can be considered alongside the rest.

• Not a medicine and not a treatment for diabetes
• Chromium contributes to normal blood glucose levels
• With diabetes or medication, speak to your GP first

What about Corevalin and blood pressure?

On Corevalin blood pressure the answer is brief: the seller makes no statement about it and neither do we. Corevalin is not intended to influence blood pressure. The authorised statements concern carbohydrate metabolism (zinc) and blood glucose levels (chromium), and only those.

If blood pressure is a worry for you, that is a conversation for your GP or for the blood pressure check at your pharmacy, not something a food supplement should be asked to answer.

So what are Corevalin uses in everyday life?

Put simply, the everyday use of Corevalin is as a once-a-day capsule with breakfast, taken as part of a balanced lifestyle. That is the whole answer to questions about its uses. For the full list of actives look at the ingredients page, and for how to take it, the dosage and side effects page.
