Capros is a patented, standardized extract of the Indian gooseberry (amla). The extraction process concentrates antioxidant polyphenols including emblicanin A and B. Proprietary processing aims to make those compounds more stable and easier to absorb.
Most clinical studies examine its antioxidant activity and its ability to help maintain blood sugar levels that are already in the normal range. Researchers have also looked at it for exercise recovery and oxidative stress. People often take it as a daily antioxidant supplement.
A typical routine uses one or two doses per day. Anyone with diabetes or taking medication that lowers blood sugar should watch their levels closely if they add Capros. The supplement can have additive effects with those medications.
