Recent research has confirmed that curcumin can reduce the incidence rate of type 2 diabetes and improve the function of beta cells in adults with prediabetes, published in Diabetes Care Somlak chuengsamarn, a physician, and colleagues randomly assigned 240 pre diabetic adults to receive curcumin or placebo twice a day for a total of nine months After treatment, the progression of type 2 diabetes was evaluated Nine months later, the researchers found that 16.4% of the placebo group had diabetes, and none of the curcumin group had type 2 diabetes Curcumin can significantly improve the function of β cell In conclusion, it is supported that curcumin for 9 months can significantly reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes in a pre diabetes patient In addition, curcumin treatment can improve the overall function of β cells, but the adverse effects of curcumin are very few The Thai government's pharmaceutical organization provided curcumin extract and placebo for the study.
