Payarmin Formula Architecture

Payarmin's label itemizes one active, chromium picolinate at 0.7 mcg per 1 mL, and folds 22 more into a 200 mg proprietary blend without individual amounts. Here is every entry, its form and its flags.

Updated October 16, 2026Checked against the bottle label

Clinical takeaways

Per 1 mL: chromium picolinate 0.7 mcg (2% DV) plus a 200 mg proprietary blend of 22 entries.
Only the order is known inside the blend: maca is the largest share, L-carnitine the smallest.
Three safety flags: a licorice compound, grapefruit extract and two caffeine sources, all with unstated amounts.
The base contains xylitol, which is harmless to people in small amounts but toxic to dogs.

We transcribed this from the maker's own label artwork. The sales page calls the ginseng a root; the label says aerial extract. When the two disagree, the label is what is in the bottle.

Standardized extracts versus plain names

The label uses the word "extract" for eleven of the botanicals but never gives a ratio (such as 10:1) or a marker percentage (such as 25% gymnemic acids). Without those, the same 20 mg of "gymnema leaf extract" could carry very different amounts of the active compounds. Our article on why botanical standardization matters explains what to ask for.

All 22 blend entries

Ingredient	Form	What research looks at	Evidence
Maca (Lepidium meyenii) root extract	Root extract	Energy and libido in traditional use; no human glucose trials located.	Little glucose data
Grape (Vitis vinifera) seed extract	Seed extract	Blood pressure and lipid markers in a meta-analysis, not glucose.	Little glucose data
Guarana (Paullinia cupana) seed extract	Seed extract	A caffeine source. The label gives no caffeine figure.	Safety flag
African mango (Irvingia gabonensis) seed extract	Seed extract	Small Cameroon weight trials at 150 mg twice a day; a systematic review called them weak.	Little glucose data
Eleutherococcus senticosus root extract	Root extract	Adaptogen with fatigue research; no reliable glucose outcome data.	Little glucose data
Astragalus root extract	Root extract	NCCIH describes human evidence as limited for any use.	Little glucose data
Green tea (Camellia sinensis) leaf extract	Leaf extract	17 RCTs pooled: a small drop in fasting glucose; extracts carry a rare liver-injury signal.	Glucose trials exist
Gymnema leaf extract	Leaf extract	The most glucose-relevant herb here; older trials used about 400 mg a day of a standardized extract.	Glucose trials exist
Coleus forskohlii root extract	Root extract	One small trial on body composition in men; no glucose endpoint.	Little glucose data
Capsicum annuum fruit extract	Fruit extract	Thermogenic and appetite work; not studied for glucose in this form.	Little glucose data
Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) fruit extract	Fruit extract	No glucose role. Grapefruit compounds can raise blood levels of some medicines.	Safety flag
Panax ginseng aerial extract	Aerial parts, not root	Root extracts lowered fasting glucose modestly in a meta-analysis; the label uses aerial parts.	Glucose trials exist
Raspberry ketones	Isolated compound	No human glucose evidence located.	Little glucose data
L-Glutamine	Amino acid	15 g doses raised GLP-1 after a meal in one study; this blend is a fraction of a gram.	Little glucose data
L-Tyrosine	Amino acid	Catecholamine precursor; no glucose role.	Little glucose data
L-Arginine base	Amino acid	Vascular research at gram doses.	Little glucose data
Beta-alanine	Amino acid	Exercise performance at 3.2 to 6.4 g a day; can cause tingling.	Little glucose data
Monoammonium glycyrrhizinate	Licorice compound	Regular licorice intake is linked to higher blood pressure and low potassium.	Safety flag
GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid)	Amino acid	Relaxation and sleep marketing; little oral glucose data.	Little glucose data
L-Ornithine HCl	Amino acid	Urea cycle amino acid; no glucose role established.	Little glucose data
L-Tryptophan	Amino acid	Serotonin precursor; check with a clinician if you take an SSRI.	Safety flag
L-Carnitine base	Amino acid	Fat transport into mitochondria; trials use grams a day.	Little glucose data

Doses: the label ceiling against the trials

Amber = what the Payarmin label allows (log scale, mg per day at 1 dropper). Indigo = daily amounts used in the studies we cite. No single blend entry can exceed 200 mg, and an even split is 9.1 mg each.

Safety flags in the formula

Monoammonium glycyrrhizinate (licorice)

Glycyrrhizin raises blood pressure and lowers potassium when taken regularly in larger amounts.^[7]^[8] The amount here is unknown and probably small, but people with high blood pressure, heart or kidney disease, or who take diuretics should ask a clinician first.

Grapefruit fruit extract

Grapefruit compounds can block an enzyme that clears many medicines, including some statins and blood-pressure drugs, pushing their blood levels up.^[9]^[10] Whether a fruit extract carries enough of those compounds is not stated. If your prescription carries a grapefruit warning, treat this product as grapefruit.

Guarana and green tea

Both supply caffeine; the FDA puts 400 mg a day as an amount not generally linked to harm in healthy adults.^[11] The label does not say how much one dropper adds. Concentrated green tea extracts have also been linked to rare liver injury, mostly at high doses and on an empty stomach.^[4]^[5]

Beta-alanine and tryptophan

Beta-alanine can cause harmless tingling at sports doses of grams;^[12] at this blend size it is unlikely. L-tryptophan is a serotonin precursor; if you take an antidepressant, mention it to your prescriber.

Xylitol and pets

Xylitol is a sugar alcohol that can cause gas or loose stools in people and is dangerous to dogs even in small amounts. Store the bottle where pets cannot chew the dropper.

Excipient profile

Glycerin and water form the liquid base, lemon extract and natural flavors set the taste, stevia (Reb A) and xylitol sweeten without sugar, and sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate and citric acid keep it shelf-stable once opened. There are no synthetic colors listed. No allergen, gluten or GMO statement is printed on the panel we read.
