South Korean researchers assessed the anti-diabetic activities of Orostachys japonicus (rock pine) and Momordica charantia (bitter melon) extracts in vitro and in vivo. Their findings were published in the Journal of Medicinal Food.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that OME is an anti-diabetic agent that can increase insulin sensitivity and could be used as a safe alternative therapy for Type 2 diabetes.
