Background:
Diabetes is prevalent globally; India stands amongst the first two countries with the highest percentage of adults aged 20-79 years with diabetes in 2021. Anti-diabetic agents and insulin offer profound side effects. Phytoconstituents regulate blood sugar, improve health status and reduce dependency on anti-diabetic medications. This research aims to generate clinical evidence of Diabetic Support Product (GP/PROD/2021/001) in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
Trial Design:
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted on 150 individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Subjects were divided into two parallel groups and given either GP/PROD/2021/001 or a placebo tablet; 2 tablets twice a day after meals for 90 days.
Methods:
Interventions were adjuvant to the standard medication. The research objectives were to evaluate changes in fasting and post-meal plasma glucose and HbA1c in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Results:
In 90 days, GP/PROD/2021/001 group showed a substantial improvement in all key biochemical markers-HbA1c, FBS, and PPBS when compared to the placebo group. A reduced HOMA-IR score suggests reduced insulin resistance. Quality of life improved in GP/PROD/2021/001 group than placebo. On day 90, there was a significant decrease in HbA1c levels in GP/PROD/2021/001 (23.51%) group than placebo (6.21%). The test group reduced their dependency on conventional antidiabetic medication and insulin.
Conclusion:
It can be concluded from the study that the advanced diabetic support formula (GP/PROD/2021/001) is a safer and more effective option as an adjuvant in the management of diabetes from newly diagnosed to chronic diabetic patients.
