Sugarreset Ingredients: All 23 Actives in Each Dropper
Sugarreset lists 23 active ingredients in each 1 mL serving.
Chromium is 0.7 mcg (2% DV). The other 22, such as gymnema, African mango, green tea, maca and Panax ginseng, share a 200 mg blend in a lemon base with stevia and xylitol.

Sugarreset drops list 23 active ingredients per 1 mL serving. One is chromium, a trace mineral with its own amount. A single 200 mg proprietary blend holds the remaining 22.
The blend mixes plant extracts, two natural caffeine sources, a licorice compound and eight amino acids.
Every name on this page comes from the Sugarreset Supplement Facts panel.
How do 22 Sugarreset ingredients share 200 mg?
A proprietary blend shows one total. The split stays private.
They split one 200 mg blend, and the label does not say how. A proprietary blend lets a maker list the total weight without the amount of each part.
Simple division gives a rough guide. 200 mg across 22 ingredients is about 9 mg each per 1 mL. Two droppers double that to about 18 mg. None can be very large when 22 share the space.
Blend math if the 22 ingredients were split evenly
| Daily amount | Blend total | Average per ingredient |
|---|---|---|
| 1 dropper (1 mL) | 200 mg | About 9 mg |
| 2 droppers (2 mL) | 400 mg | About 18 mg |
This matters when you compare Sugarreset with research. Our post on reading caffeine in supplement blends explains why hidden amounts make that harder.
Sugarreset ingredients for the metabolism theme: gymnema, chromium and African mango
The three ingredients most linked to the Sugarreset label theme.
Gymnema leaf extract
Gymnema is a climbing plant used in Ayurvedic practice for centuries. Its Hindi name, gurmar, means sugar destroyer, because chewing the leaf briefly dulls the taste of sweet foods.
A review of 10 small studies found standardized gymnema extracts lowered fasting and after-meal glucose and HbA1c in adults with type 2 diabetes (Devangan et al., 2021). A typical studied dose is 400 mg three times a day (LiverTox, Gymnema). Read more in our gymnema explainer.
Chromium (as chromium picolinate)
Chromium is a trace mineral that helps insulin do its work. It is the only Sugarreset ingredient with a stated amount: 0.7 mcg per 1 mL, or 2% of the 35 mcg Daily Value (NIH ODS, Chromium).
Chromium picolinate is the form used in most trials. Those trials gave 200 to 1,000 mcg a day (Onakpoya et al., 2013 (chromium)).
African mango seed extract
The seed of this wild mango is high in soluble fiber and fat.
One small trial gave 150 mg twice daily for 10 weeks and reported lower weight and fasting glucose than placebo (Ngondi et al., 2009). A later review judged all such trials to be of poor quality (Onakpoya et al., 2013 (African mango)).
Green tea, maca and Panax ginseng in Sugarreset drops
Two familiar foods and a classic herb round out the six.
Green tea leaf extract
Green tea extract carries catechins such as EGCG plus natural caffeine.
The NIH rates its weight effect as small and uncertain (NIH ODS, Weight-loss supplements). In Sugarreset it is also one of two caffeine sources, along with guarana.
Maca root extract
Maca is a cousin of the radish and has been eaten as food in Peru for generations.
Research has looked at maca mainly for sexual function, at 1.5 to 3.5 g a day, with limited results (Shin et al., 2010). It has not been studied for blood sugar.
Panax ginseng aerial extract
Panax ginseng is a slow-growing herb from Korea and China. Aerial means the parts above the ground, such as leaves and stems.
A review of 16 trials found a modest drop in fasting glucose, with no clear change in HbA1c or insulin (Shishtar et al., 2014). The NIH calls the overall evidence conflicting (NCCIH, Asian ginseng).
What are the other 17 Sugarreset ingredients?
A caffeine seed, six herbs and fruits, two flavor compounds and eight amino acids.
The 17 supporting ingredients in the Sugarreset blend, grouped by type
| Ingredient | Group | What it is | What research says |
|---|---|---|---|
| Guarana seed | Caffeine source | Caffeine-rich Amazon seed | Caffeine is safe up to 400 mg a day for most healthy adults (FDA, Caffeine). Amount here not published. |
| Grape seed | Herb | Seed of wine grapes | Evidence for most uses is limited; generally well tolerated (NCCIH, Grape seed extract). |
| Eleuthero root | Herb | Siberian ginseng, not a true ginseng | No good human evidence for its claimed uses (LactMed, Eleuthero). |
| Astragalus root | Herb | Traditional Chinese root | Little high-quality research in people (NCCIH, Astragalus). |
| Coleus forskohlii root | Herb | Mint-family root; source of forskolin | 250 mg of a 10% extract twice daily cut body fat but not weight in 30 men (Godard et al., 2005). |
| Capsicum fruit | Herb | Hot pepper; carries capsaicin | Weight effects are small or unclear (NIH ODS, Weight-loss supplements). |
| Grapefruit fruit | Herb | Citrus extract | Grapefruit can change how some medicines work (FDA, Grapefruit and drugs). |
| Raspberry ketones | Sweet or aroma | Raspberry scent compound | Too little human research to judge (NIH ODS, Weight-loss supplements). |
| Monoammonium glycyrrhizinate | Sweet or aroma | Sweet licorice root salt | Large amounts can raise blood pressure and lower potassium (NCCIH, Licorice root). |
| L-glutamine | Amino acid | Most common blood amino acid | A normal diet supplies grams a day. |
| L-tyrosine | Amino acid | Dopamine building block | Found in cheese, soy and poultry. |
| L-arginine | Amino acid | Makes nitric oxide | Studied at 9 g a day after heart attacks; that trial stopped early (Schulman et al., 2006 (VINTAGE MI)). |
| Beta-alanine | Amino acid | Helps muscles make carnosine | Can cause a harmless tingling at gram doses. |
| GABA | Amino acid | Calming nerve messenger | How much of a swallowed dose reaches the brain is unclear. |
| L-ornithine | Amino acid | Helps clear ammonia | Studied mostly in sports settings. |
| L-tryptophan | Amino acid | Serotonin building block | Found in turkey, milk and oats. |
| L-carnitine | Amino acid | Carries fats into cells | The body makes its own. |
- 1 caffeine source
- 6 herbs and fruits
- 2 sweet or aroma compounds
- 7 amino acids plus GABA
Sugarreset ingredient doses vs. the doses used in research
The ingredient list follows research topics. The amounts are much smaller.
Sugarreset per-serving amounts compared with daily amounts in human studies
| Ingredient | Per 1 mL | Daily dose in studies | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chromium | 0.7 mcg | 200–1,000 mcg (Onakpoya et al., 2013 (chromium)) | About 285–1,400 times less |
| Gymnema | Not published (avg ~9 mg) | About 1,200 mg (LiverTox, Gymnema) | Likely far less |
| African mango | Not published (avg ~9 mg) | 300 mg (Ngondi et al., 2009) | Likely far less |
| Panax ginseng | Not published (avg ~9 mg) | Gram amounts (Shishtar et al., 2014) | Likely far less |
| Maca | Not published (avg ~9 mg) | 1,500–3,500 mg (Shin et al., 2010) | Likely far less |
| Coleus forskohlii | Not published (avg ~9 mg) | 500 mg of a 10% extract (Godard et al., 2005) | Likely far less |
What else is in the Sugarreset liquid?
Glycerin, water, two sweeteners, lemon and two preservatives.
The nine other ingredients on the Sugarreset label, in label order
| Other ingredient | What it is | Why it is there |
|---|---|---|
| Glycerin | Thick, sweet plant-based liquid | The main base; carries the extracts. |
| Water | Purified water | Thins the glycerin so the drops flow. |
| Organic lemon extract | Lemon flavor | Covers bitter herbs. |
| Stevia extract 97% (Reb A) | Purified stevia leaf sweetener | Zero-calorie sweetness. |
| Xylitol | A sugar alcohol | Sweetness with fewer calories. |
| Sodium benzoate | Food preservative | Stops mold and yeast. |
| Potassium sorbate | A second food preservative | Works with sodium benzoate. |
| Citric acid | Citrus fruit acid | Tartness and stable pH. |
| Natural flavors | Not itemized on the label | Rounds out the taste. |
The base is typical for liquid supplement drops. See liquid drops vs. capsules for why liquids need them.
Xylitol is the one item to watch at home. It can cause gas at high intakes (Lenhart & Chey, 2017), and it is toxic to dogs even in small amounts. Store the bottle out of reach of pets.
Which Sugarreset ingredients should you check with a pharmacist?
Four ingredient groups worth a quick medicine check.
Guarana and green tea
Both carry caffeine. Count them with coffee, tea and energy drinks.
Gymnema, chromium, ginseng
These may add to diabetes medicines. Ask your doctor first and never change a dose on your own.
Grapefruit extract
Grapefruit can change how some statins and blood pressure drugs work.
Licorice compound
Glycyrrhizin in large amounts can raise blood pressure.
Bring the full label to your pharmacist. For how these may feel day to day, see the Sugarreset side effects page.
Sugarreset ingredients questions
How many ingredients are in Sugarreset?
The label lists 23 active ingredients. Chromium has its own line at 0.7 mcg per 1 mL. The remaining 22 sit together in one 200 mg proprietary blend. Nine more items, such as glycerin and stevia, form the liquid base.
How much gymnema is in each Sugarreset dropper?
The label does not say. Gymnema is one of 22 ingredients sharing a 200 mg blend. An even split would give about 9 mg per 1 mL, far below the 400 mg doses used in studies.
What is monoammonium glycyrrhizinate?
It is a salt of glycyrrhizin, the sweet compound in licorice root. It adds sweetness and a licorice note. In large amounts glycyrrhizin can raise blood pressure, which is why it is worth a pharmacist check.
Does Sugarreset contain caffeine?
Caffeine is not listed as its own line, but guarana seed and green tea leaf are both natural caffeine sources. The amount of caffeine per serving is not published. If coffee makes you jittery, take the drops early in the day.
Is Sugarreset sweetened with sugar?
Sugar is not on the ingredient list. The drops use stevia extract (Reb A) and xylitol, with organic lemon extract and natural flavors for taste. Glycerin, which also tastes a little sweet, is the main base.
Is Panax ginseng in Sugarreset the root or the leaf?
The label says Panax ginseng aerial extract. Aerial means the parts that grow above the ground, such as leaves and stems. Most ginseng studies used the root, so keep that in mind when you read research.
