Brief Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of propolis or metformin on glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without pharmacological treatment.

All patients received for 12 weeks propolis, metformin or placebo. Fasting serum glucose, 2-h serum glucose after oral glucose tolerance test, glycated hemoglobin A1c, a metabolic profile, areas under the curve of glucose and insulin, insulinogenic index, Stumvoll index, and Matsuda index were measured.
Detailed Description: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of three pharmacological groups was carried out, with the participation of 36 patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus without pharmacological treatment.

At the beginning and end of the study, fasting serum glucose, 2-h serum glucose after oral glucose tolerance test, glycated hemoglobin A1c, and a metabolic profile were measured. Areas under the curve of glucose and insulin, total insulin secretion insulinogenic index), the first phase of insulin secretion (Stumvoll index), and insulin sensitivity (Matsuda index) were calculated.

All patients received for 12 weeks two capsules a day, one before the first bite of breakfast and another before the first bite of dinner. 12 of them took propolis (300 mg), another 12 received metformin (850 mg), and 12 more placebo in the same pharmacological presentation.

This protocol was approved by a local ethics committee and written informed consent was obtained from all volunteers.

Results are presented as mean and standard deviation. Intra-group differences were evaluated using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U-tests, while inter-group differences were calculated with the Wilcoxon test; p≤0.05 was considered significant.
