Moranoline or 1-DNJ holds back complex carbohydrates, starches, maltose and sucrose from breaking down into glucose.  In essence, it actually prevents sugar from entering into the bloodstream. Scientists have pinpointed a number of biologically active compounds in extracts of the leaves of the white mulberry, Morus Alba that is effective in suppressing the progression of atherosclerosis, the buildup of cholesterol-rich plaque in our arteries.  It does this by inhibiting the oxidation of LDL-cholesterol which is a major factor in the development of atherosclerotic plaque.
