The PPG levels were recorded after the consumption of 70 ml tea along with one teaspoon of sugar after 90 minutes in all 48 patients.
After the consumption of plain tea and mulberry tea, change in the PPG level was observed in response to mulberry tea in all the test patients compared with control.
The researchers dubbed the reduction in blood sugar following mulberry tea as “highly significant”.
“Moreover, the effect size was also found to be very large,” they observed.
