BioGaia initiates investigative study in type 2 diabetics
BioGaia has initiated an investigative study in type 2 diabetics together with Gothia Forum for Clinical Research at Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg in collaboration with Sahlgrenska Center for Cardiovascular and Metabolic Research.
Based on encouraging findings after supplementation of BioGaia's probiotic strain Lactobacillus reuteri Protectis in patients with type 2 diabetes in an earlier pilot study, this double-blind, placebo-controlled study will examine the effects of Lactobacillus reuteri Protectis supplementation on blood glucose control over a 12 week period. The study will address both clinical outcome parameters as well as attempting to define potential mechanistic explanations for the effects seen.
