The promising effects of a multi-species synbiotic preparation on metabolic profile in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes and high cardiovascular risk: a randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled trial
A multi-species synbiotic preparation benefits elderly patients with T2DM and high cardiovascular risk and improves weight, BMI, BFM, and plasma levels of total cholesterol, LDL-C, VCAM-1, FPG, and HOMA-IR. These findings suggest synbiotics may have health-promoting impacts in older patients with diabetes.
