Glyoxalase 1 Inducer, trans-Resveratrol and Hesperetin–Dietary Supplement with Multi-Modal Health Benefits

A dietary supplement combining trans-resveratrol and hesperetin activates a cellular defense mechanism called Nrf2, which increases production of an enzyme (Glo1) that helps eliminate harmful byproducts of sugar metabolism. This supplement improved multiple aspects of health in studies, including better blood sugar control, reduced inflammation, and improved liver function. The combination works better than either ingredient alone, and the trans form of resveratrol is much more effective than the cis form.

The Antioxidant Properties of Mushroom Polysaccharides can Potentially Mitigate Oxidative Stress, Beta-Cell Dysfunction and Insulin Resistance

This research review explores how mushroom compounds called polysaccharides may help manage diabetes by reducing harmful stress on cells caused by high glucose levels. Scientists found that 104 different mushroom polysaccharides have anti-diabetic properties and can protect insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. These natural compounds show promise as a complementary treatment to conventional diabetes medications, potentially with fewer side effects than synthetic drugs.

The Therapeutic Effect and Mechanism of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Its Complications

Traditional Chinese Medicine uses various herbs and plant compounds to treat Type 2 diabetes by improving how the body controls blood sugar and protects the pancreas. Many common TCM herbs like ginseng, rehmannia, and coptis work through natural mechanisms that reduce inflammation, protect cells from damage, and improve how the body uses insulin. Research shows TCM may also help prevent or reduce diabetes-related complications affecting the eyes, kidneys, and nerves. These herbal treatments offer potential benefits with fewer side effects compared to conventional medications.

Synergistic target network construction and dynamic simulation analysis based on a prospective systems pharmacology strategy

Researchers used computer-based methods to study how Sang Huang, a traditional medicinal fungus, might help treat type 2 diabetes. They identified 17 active compounds in the fungus and found that a key component called estradiol dipropionate could improve insulin sensitivity and glucose control by activating specific protein pathways. The study suggests Sang Huang could be a promising natural treatment for diabetes, though more laboratory and animal testing is needed.
