Brief Summary:
Impaired fasting glucose (IFG) is a condition that precedes diabetes and increases the risk of developing it. Studies support the hypoglycemic effect of Cynara cardunculus (Cs) extracts due to the content of chlorogenic acid, which is a potent inhibitor of glucose 6-phosphate translocase and of dicaffeoylquinic acid derivatives that modulate the activity of alpha-glucosidase. Given this background, we investigated whether a new highly standardized Cs extract could improve glycaemic control, insulin sensitivity and other metabolic parameters (total, HDL and LDL cholesterol, Triglycerides, ApoB, ApoA, waist circumference, Visceral adipose tissue by DXA) in overweight subjects with newly diagnosed IFG.
