Gestational type-2-diabetes
Supplements studied for gestational type-2-diabetes.
Overview
Inositol (DEX Score 72; medium effect size, high evidence, very high trust) has medium evidence: myo-inositol with folic acid during pregnancy may reduce gestational type-2-diabetes risk and insulin needs in at-risk women, with variable effects on birth outcomes. Nattokinase entries (DEX Score 56) reflect soy food intake research suggesting lower GDM risk with adequate soy consumption, not nattokinase supplements directly.
Probiotics (DEX Score 64; medium effect size, medium evidence, high trust) are possibly effective per limited evidence. Vitamin D (DEX Score 56; low effect size, very high evidence, medium trust; 12 studies) shows mixed results for prevention and glycemic control. Iodine has insufficient evidence.
