a proven solution for carb control

Phase 2™ is a proprietary, natural ingredient derived from the white kidney bean. Phase 2™ is not a stimulant; it works by reducing the enzymatic digestion of dietary starches. Phase 2™ has been clinically shown to reduce the digestion and absorption of dietary starches by up to 66%.¹

benefits

Phase 2™ has been extensively studied; more than 14 clinical studies have been conducted in the past 15 years. Phase 2™ is a market leader, and has been used successfully in multiple products worldwide.
