Zinc transporters and insulin resistance: therapeutic implications for type 2 diabetes and metabolic disease
Background: Zinc is a metal ion that is essential for growth and development, immunity, and metabolism, and therefore vital for life. Recent studies have highlighted zinc’s dynamic role as an insulin mimetic and a cellular second
messenger that controls many processes associated with insulin signaling and other downstream pathways that are amendable to glycemic control. Main body: Mechanisms that contribute to the decompartmentalization of zinc and dysfunctional zinc transporter ...

Black tea consumption improves postprandial glycemic control in normal and pre-diabetic subjects: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study
Postprandial glycemic control is important for prevention of diabetes. Black tea consumption may improve postprandial glycemic control. The major bioactive compounds are polyphenols, black tea polymerized polyphenol (BTPP).This study examined the effect of black tea consumption on postprandial blood glucose and insulin response following sucrose loading in normal and pre-diabetes subjects. Methods and Study Design: This study was a ...
