Swedish researchers have discovered a new useful effect broccoli.
Scientists have determined that broccoli contains the ingredient that can help people with diabetes.
Scientists have discovered that the sulforaphane contained in cruciferous vegetables, particularly broccoli, has helped to reduce the level of glucose in the blood of patients with diabetes animals.
We observed a decrease in glucose of approximately 10 percent, which is sufficient to reduce the complications in eyes, kidneys and blood, – said one of the researchers, Professor Anders Rosengren, of the Center for diabetes University of Lund in Sweden.
To confirm the assumption, the Swedish scientists conducted an experiment involving 97 patients with type II diabetes.
Within 12 weeks, they consumed concentrated extract of broccoli sprouts tablets. As a result, participants in the analysis of fasting blood was observed a decrease in the level of glucose. Patients reported reduced blood sugar by 10%.
As noted Rosengren, this effect is enough to patients have decreased vision problems and kidneys.
“Now it is important to make extracts of broccoli was available for production as a functional food,” added the Professor.
