文摘

Chemically well analysed litchi pericarp and lotus seedpod procyanidins were used. OPC lowered the blood glucose level and improved the glucose intolerance. Anti-diabetic effect of A-OPC is through inhibiting the glucose production and increasing glucose uptake. OPC may be a potential natural agent for the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes.
