Researchers are working to develop a new treatment for type-2 diabetes patients with the use of a special African tea. This tea has long been used as a remedy in traditional medicine, Nigeria, and is made from extracts of leaves Rauvolfia
Vomitoria of them oleander and Citrus aurantium fruit of their commitment. Scientists recently tested the tea on patients with type-2 diabetes, and the results are very promising.
The researchers took tea fuel for Africa, a total of up to 50 kg and 300 kg of fruit tree leaves from the natural forest area of Nigeria. Then, just as tea is produced in the traditional way. The formula is simple: boil the leaves, young stalks and fruit, and then extract the liquid.
Mouse, and then the
Associate Professor Per Molgaard and Dr. Joan Campbell-Tofte from the Departments of Pharmacology previously tested the tea on genetically diabetic mice. Through trial showed that after 6 weeks of daily treatment with the African tea, combined with a low-fat diet, the results are the changes in the combination and fat content in the mouse eye, as well as Pancreatic protect vulnerable capital of the mice.
The researchers recently completed a clinical trial lasted four months in 23 patients with type-2 diabetes and the results obtained are more than satisfied.
"The study subjects were drinking 750ml of tea each day. Other treatments for type-2 diabetes previously, this tea does not initially affect blood sugar levels. But after 4 months of treatment, we can see a significant increase in glucose tolerance, "Dr. Joan Campbell-Tofte from the University of Copenhagen said.
The change in the fatty acid
The clinical trial also showed that the changes of fatty acids in patients treated patients compared with placebo (placebo).
"In the patients treated with tea, the amount of fatty acids capable of cholesterol increases. This is very good for the cells in the body, because the polyunsaturated fats make cell membranes more permeable, from which cells absorb glucose from the blood, "said Joan Campbell-Tofte.
The researchers hope that the clinical trials and scientific experiments in the future will bring a new treatment for type-2 diabetes.
