الوصف
Tea polyphenols and polysaccharides help regulate blood sugar through multiple mechanisms: inhibiting alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase (slowing carbohydrate digestion), improving insulin sensitivity, and protecting pancreatic beta cells. Both green and black tea consumed with meals have been shown to reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes. Tea polysaccharides, particularly from aged and dark teas, have demonstrated significant glucose-lowering effects in clinical studies.
