Can a fiber from onions and bananas tame diabetes?

NCT ID NCT07464691

Summary

This study is testing whether a natural dietary fiber called oligofructose, found in foods like onions and bananas, can help people with type 2 diabetes better manage their condition. For 12 weeks, 100 Saudi adults (50 with diabetes and 50 without) will take either the fiber supplement or a placebo. Researchers will check if it improves blood sugar control, reduces body inflammation, and promotes healthier gut bacteria.
