Polyphenol types in people with type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how different people process polyphenols (natural compounds in plant foods) based on their gut bacteria. It compares people with type 2 diabetes to those without diabetes to learn about possible health benefits.

This study tests if a plant-based diet and exercise program can improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes. Participants will live in a hospital for 4 weeks to follow the program closely.
This study tests whether meals made with local fruits and vegetables can help control blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. You will eat special test meals and have your blood sugar checked afterward.
This study tests if eating whole fruit (like apples, berries, or oranges) can help people with type 2 diabetes manage their blood sugar. You'll eat provided study meals and have your blood sugar checked.
This study tests a drink made from grape pomace (a natural byproduct) that is rich in polyphenols—compounds that may help the liver and heart. Participants have type 2 diabetes and mild fatty liver, and researchers want to see if the drink improves liver health, blood sugar, and gut bacteria over several months.
This early study looks at how “autophagy” (your body’s cell recycling process) relates to small blood-vessel problems in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand mechanisms and possible future treatments, mainly for people who meet specific health and medication criteria.
This study tests whether a probiotic called Lactobacillus Paracasei LC19 can help control blood sugar in people who have just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and are not on any diabetes medications. It may be a natural way to manage the condition.
