Dietary supplements are popular among people with diabetes, but there is no scientific evidence that any supplement can cure diabetes, control blood glucose levels, or prevent or treat symptoms of diabetes. Supplements cannot replace a healthy diet or clinically proven drug therapies. Always consult your doctor before taking any new supplement and provide them with an up-to-date list of all medications to avoid drug interactions. Reducing your prescribed medication without consulting your doctor can be risky.
