Type 2 diabetes and Obesity are major global health issues as well as in several cases, both go hand in hand. Based on research in the DMJ (Diabetes & Metabolism Journal), though prescription drugs are the "backbone treatment for diabetes" medical researchers are still interested in "treatments using herbal plants" which comprise Camellia Sinensis, often called green tea.

Green tea, unlike black tea, is comparatively unprocessed which is twice as full of antioxidants as Vitamin-C. Green tea extract includes a potent antioxidant known as epigallocatechin gallate that has been proven to have a number of positive impacts on cognition, cardiovascular health, and on sugar metabolism and obesity that will be especially essential for diabetics.

Based on the Pacific University of Oriental Medicine, the EGCG in green tea extract might help diabetics by "resembling insulin activities and suppressing the liver's manufacturing of glucose, hence lowering blood sugar levels."

Thus, researchers recommend that diabetic patients must "drink green tea with caution." Thus, before supplementing with green-tea extract, diabetics must talk to their doctors, as there might be contraindications.
