• Descrição: Salacinol is a naturally occurring sulfonium ion, which is a bioactive compound found primarily in the roots and stems of the plant Salacia reticulata. This plant is native to regions of South Asia, particularly India and Sri Lanka, and is traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine. Salacinol's mode of action involves the inhibition of alpha-glucosidase, an enzyme responsible for breaking down carbohydrates into glucose. By inhibiting this enzyme, salacinol reduces the postprandial rise in blood glucose levels, thus demonstrating antidiabetic potential.
