About Us
History
A proprietary beverage formula, including a unique form of soluble fiber, targeted vitamins and minerals, and an extract of the Banaba Leaf plant, was developed by Glucose Health, Inc. and Chandrasekhar Mallangi, Ph.D. The beverage was initially formulated to be a nutraceutical drink for pre-diabetic and diabetic persons and was named Glucose Health. In 2018, Glucose Health Inc. improved upon the formula and successfully launched the first soluble fiber infused iced tea mixes in North American under the GlucoDown® brand. The flavors launched include Peach Tea, Lemon Tea, Raspberry Tea and Super Berry Tea (a combination of blueberry and blackberry). In January 2021, the Company launched four new drink (not tea based) mixes also under the GlucoDown® brand. The flavors launched include Watermelon, Cherry, Peach Mango and Strawberry Banana. Glucose Health, Inc. is presently developing additional flavors for the GlucoDown® brand including coffees and the Company is launching its second soluble fiber infused brand, FIBER UP®.
Market Niche
According to Euromonitor, the world's leading market research firm, the highest-growth beverage industry category, is healthy or functional beverages.
