Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the effect of oral administration of herbarium mixture Guazuma ulmifolia (GU) and Tecoma stans (TS) on metabolic profile in type 2 diabetic patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, clinical trial was carried out 40 type 2 diabetic patients independently of their basal hypoglycemic treatment. At beginning and at end of the study, BMI, waist circumference, a metabolic profile (fasting glucose, HbA1c, lipids and biosecurity profile), were measured. The patients were randomly assigned to receive the herbarium mixture (GU/TS) 1 g before each meal, or placebo for a period of 90 days. All patients received therapy medical nutrition.
