A chemical called sulforaphane could be a new option for people with type 2 diabetes who need help managing their blood sugar.
In a study just published in Science Translational Medicine,
researchers randomized 97 people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes to take
a concentrated broccoli sprout extract containing sulforaphane once a
day for 12 weeks or a placebo with the same regimen. All but three of
the participants were taking metformin, a standard treatment for
controlling blood sugar.
