Drinking kombucha may help people with type 2 diabetes lower their blood sugar, according to an early study.
Aug. 1, 2023 – People with type 2 diabetes who drank the fermented tea beverage kombucha for a month lowered their blood sugar from dangerous to safe levels, a small new pilot study from Georgetown University shows.
The average age of people in the study was 57 years old. Nine were women, six of the people were Black, and the other six were White. Nine were on insulin therapy. “Some laboratory and rodent studies of kombucha have shown promise, and one small study in people without diabetes showed kombucha lowered blood sugar, but to our knowledge, this is the first clinical trial examining effects of kombucha in people with diabetes,” researcher Dan Merenstein, MD, a Georgetown professor of human science and family medicine, said in aA strength of the research was that people were not told to change their diets during the study, Merenstein said.
