It is pretty well documented that traditional Chinese herbs can be helpful in any number of ways; they have a significant amount of health benefits.

However, new research suggests that they may be even more beneficial than previously thought. It is said that Chinese herbs may be able to help those who are at a high risk for getting diabetes. In sixteen clinical trials which utilized fifteen different formulations of herbs, it was discovered that the herbal formulas were able to lower the glucose, or blood sugar, levels in those people who had pre diabetes. That means that your body’s blood sugar control is impaired, and can further progress into a full blown case of type 2 diabetes.

The research discovered that by adding herbs and adopting lifestyle changes, patients had a high chance of lowering their levels of blood sugar to the normal range.
