Diet-Induced Diabetes

Polysaccharides from tremella (Tremella fuciformis) (TPs) showed strong anti-diabetic effects in mice with diet-induced diabetes in a new study. The mushroom compounds helped restore gut microbiome balance by increasing beneficial bacteria like Bacteroides and Bifidobacterium.
