Features
WellBetX PGX Ultra Matrix Softgels Plus Mulberry blends all the benefits of PGX with an extract of mulberry leaves, is shown to diminish after-meal spikes in glucose and insulin by blocking certain enzymes that break down starches and sugars in the body.
PGX absorbs hundreds of times its weight in water over 1 to 2 hours and it expands in the digestive tract creating a highly viscous (thick) gelatinous material. Once hydrated, this complex creates a lasting sense of fullness and it greatly stabilizes blood sugar and appetite hormones. An adequate serving of PGX should make cutting calories much easier and helps to stabilize blood glucose levels effectively helping to prevent spikes and lows. For those who want to lose weight (using either a carbohydrate- or calorie-restricted diet), PGX provides effective weight management without suffering from hunger pangs.
Ongoing research and development involving PGX has led to the development of the PGX Daily Ultra Matrix Softgel – an advanced delivery system for superior results. The Ultra Matrix technology involves suspending PGX in an MCT-rich oil matrix (medium-chain triglycerides) derived from purified coconut oil. This matrix, when combined with stomach acid, disperses better than any other tested delivery system for soluble or insoluble fibre, including previous forms of PGX. Rapid dispersal substantially increases the potential of PGX Daily as the polysaccharides quickly attract water and thicken quickly providing a profound sense of fullness. This effect is referred to as “acid-induced viscosity” and it begins within minutes of ingesting PGX Daily.
These WellbetX PGX softgels also contain a special extract of mulberry leaves. Mulberry blocks the enzyme alpha glucodase. By inhibiting such enzymes, mulberry extract diminishes after-meal rises in both glucose and insulin levels.

Additional Information
Children: Softgels should not be taken by children under 6 or any children who have trouble swallowing capsules. Always insist that older children drink at least 200 mL (4 ounces) of water per softgel taken.
Pregnancy and Nursing: Although fibres are considered safe in pregnancy and lactation, the PGX softgels also contain mulberry extract. As the effects of mulberry extract have not been sufficiently evaluated it is best if pregnant and lactating women do not take PGX softgels.
Seniors: No special precautions are known. Anyone, including seniors, who have bowel obstruction problems should check with their health care practitioner before taking PGX softgels. Seniors with constipation and other bowel disorders may want to start with 1/4 of the dose and gradually work up to a full dose as tolerated. Always be sure to drink lots of water with each softgel (at least 200 mL or 4 ounces per softgel).
