IF YOU HAVE PREDIABETES OR TYPE 2 DIABETES, many supplements have a beneficial role to play in helping to improve your long-term health
Some supplements improve the production and release of insulin hormone in the pancreas, some reduce insulin resistance in muscle and fat cells, while others reduce the production of new glucose in the liver. A few supplements work by blocking the effect of gut enzymes to slow the release of glucose from food.
Antioxidant supplements also offer some protection against the circulatory damage that contributes to the long-term complications of diabetes.
If you have prediabetes, metabolic syndrome or type 2 diabetes and are being managed by diet and lifestyle alone, supplements can improve your glucose control and may help to avoid the need for prescribed drugs.
If you are already taking any medication, however, always talk to your doctor before taking supplements and follow their advice.
