A new study shows that researchers have found that a natural compound found in more than seventy plant species, including nuts, grapes, and pine trees, as well as in red wine, may lower blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Study participants who received one gram of this compound, resveratrol, daily had significantly lower blood pressure, blood glucose, and insulin resistance than those who received the placebo. You and your physician can review study details in the article, “Resveratrol May Lower Blood Sugar” in the September 2013 issue of Natural Standard’s Integrative Medicine Newsletter.
