Summary
This study tested whether alpha linolenic acid (ALA), a nutrient found in flaxseed oil, can improve blood sugar levels in people with elevated glucose. 94 adults with high blood sugar or well-controlled type 2 diabetes took ALA or a placebo in a crossover design. Researchers measured changes in fasting glucose, HbA1c, gut bacteria, and other markers to see if ALA helps manage blood sugar.
