Blood sugar control
Supplements studied for blood sugar control.
Overview
Three supplements are indexed for blood sugar control across four studies.
Berberine (DEX Score 64; medium effect size, medium evidence, high trust) carries medium ratings for effect size, evidence, and trust, though detailed trial summaries are not yet available in this index. Oats (DEX Score 56; medium effect size, low evidence, medium trust) provide beta-glucan fiber that may lower post-meal blood sugar by slowing digestion and absorption; doses of 2–4 grams of oat beta-glucan per 30 grams of carbohydrates showed benefit in a healthy-adult study.
Casein Protein (DEX Score 48; low effect size, medium evidence, medium trust) has low-rated evidence with limited summary data. See the heatmap and evidence reviews below for full ratings.
