Daily Kos•November 26, 2025•health

Key Points:

  • It improved insulin sensitivity by approximately 50% compared to untreated diabetic mice, indicating strong potential to combat insulin resistance.
  • The extract also balanced cholesterol levels and decreased oxidative stress markers by up to 60%, a notable achievement for a single therapeutic compound.
  • These benefits were linked to the activation of a key cellular signaling pathway involved in glucose and energy metabolism.
  • The findings suggest that this natural plant extract could offer a safer alternative treatment for diabetes and related metabolic disorders.
