Phytodiab® in subjects with metabolic syndrome and early type 2 diabetes: a 12-week observational registry study.
Key takeaways
Sixty adults with early diabetes took a plant-based supplement for 12 weeks. The group taking it lost a bit more weight than the group that only changed their diet. This is an observational study, so it shows a link, not proof the supplement caused the weight loss.
