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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 eating whole fruits can help control blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. Participants will eat a special diet with provided meals, and researchers will monitor their blood sugar to see if whole fruit makes a difference.
This trial tests how a special oral nutritional supplement affects the gut microbiome (the bacteria in your digestive system) in people with type 2 diabetes. You will swallow a small capsule that collects samples as it travels through your gut, helping researchers understand the changes.
This study looks at antioxidant levels in people with type 2 diabetes to understand how inflammation and diabetes affect them. If you have diabetes and recent blood test results, you may be able to join.
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.
