Infusions of olive leaves have been used in traditional herbal medicine as a way to treat and prevent many diseases, including diabetes. Olive leaves are naturally rich in oleuropein, and previous studies have shown the potential of oleuropein in mitigating diabetes and diabetes complications in vitro and in vivo. This study aimed to investigate the effect of natural olive leaves tea on postprandial glycemia in healthy volunteers, when ingested with a high-carbohydrate meal comparing with a placebo tea. The hypothesis present was that olive leaf tea would improve glycemic control and modulate postprandial glycaemia. This work was supported by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT, Portugal) for financial support through National Funds FCT/MCTES (PIDDAC) to CIMO (UIBD/00690/2020 and UIPD/00690/2020) and SusTEC (LA/P/0007/2021); and the North Regional Operation Program funded by European Social Found – NORTE 2020 (MM, scientific- contract NORTE-06-3559-FSE-000188). info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion |
