Never tried it. And probably no one else either hence the no reply on your earlier post.  I sent Nordic, the makers of Mulberry Zuccarin, an email requesting documentation on their testing to back their claim. To be honest with you, this sounds like another supplement scam.  I'll post back to this thread if Nordic responds.

I have yet to hear from New Nordic or any of the many suppliers of New Nordic Mulberry Zuccarin that I emailed asking for test results and/or research documents stating that the mulberry leaf does low glucose levels in humans.

What I did find in my investigation was the mulberry leaf was originally grown and harvested to feed silkworms. These claims of Japanese drinking mulberry tea for 700 years is ridiculous. Japanese written history only dates back 300 years. Only in recent years, since the early 1980's, did Japan begin to drink mulberry tea.

The mulberry claim is "deoxynojirimycin, which is said to have an effect in lowering the blood-sugar level closely related to diabetes, is abundant in mulberry leaf. That is why, today, mulberry tea is considered to be a health food." Key words are "said to have". Doesn't state it does have.  Until someone can show me proof and/or research documents, I have to chalk this one up as another health fad.

But if it taste good, makes you feel good, and is non-toxic go for it. If you do try it, please post back in 2-3 months and let us know how you are and whether drinking mulberry teat has actually helped lower your glucose levels.
