Solution Overview

Problem

Current methods fail to effectively control blood glucose levels, particularly in individuals with diabetes or under stress, leading to adverse health effects such as weight gain, kidney damage, and cardiovascular issues.

Innovation Solution

A dietary supplement composition combining chromium, sweet potato extract, and one or more of mulberry, green tea, cinnamon, or ginseng extracts, which can be consumed with meals or as a beverage, to enhance insulin response, reduce insulin resistance, and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional dietary methods are used to control blood glucose levels, then blood glucose control is insufficient, but adverse health effects such as weight gain, kidney damage, and cardiovascular issues occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveblood glucose control effectivenessVSAvoidadverse health effects
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies composite materials by combining multiple extract components (chromium extract, sweet potato extract, mulberry extract, green tea extract, cinnamon extract, and ginseng extract) into a single dietary supplement composition. This composite approach synergistically improves blood glucose control effectiveness while avoiding the adverse health effects associated with conventional dietary methods alone

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Reliability

If chromium, sweet potato extract, and other plant extracts are combined in a dietary supplement, then insulin sensitivity improves and blood glucose levels are controlled, but the composition complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinsulin sensitivity and blood glucose controlVSAvoidsupplement composition complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple beneficial extracts (chromium, sweet potato, mulberry, green tea, cinnamon, and ginseng) into a single integrated dietary supplement composition. This combining approach achieves synergistic effects for improving insulin sensitivity and controlling blood glucose levels while presenting the complexity as a unified product rather than separate components

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
