Researchers created special tablets from two edible mushrooms (yellow oyster mushroom and lion’s mane) enriched with trace elements (chromium, zinc, germanium) to treat diabetes in mice. After three weeks of treatment, the high-dose tablets reduced blood sugar levels by 29%, improved cholesterol levels, boosted the body’s natural antioxidant defenses, and shifted the gut bacteria toward beneficial types that support metabolic health. These results suggest that mushroom-based treatments could potentially offer a natural way to help manage diabetes.
