La kombucha può aiutare a regolare la glicemia in persone con diabete tipo 2: questo emerge dallo studio pubblicato da un team di ricercatori americani della Georgetown University Medical Center di Washington .
La kombucha è una bevanda prodotta dalla fermentazione di tè zuccherato che viene consumata da secoli in Asia per il suo effetto stimolante e tonificante.
Molti studi scientifici ne hanno dimostrato le proprietà antinfiammatorie e antiossidanti, oltre a una possibile azione antibatterica e probiotica.
Lo studio, condotto a Washington (USA) è stato condotto su due gruppi composti da 6 persone ciascuno.
Per un mese (4 settimane) un gruppo ha ricevuto un placebo, mentre all’altro sono stati dati 237 ml di kombucha al giorno. Tutti i partecipanti hanno continuato a seguire la loro dieta abituale. Alla fine del mese di ricerca sono state invertite le bevande somministrati ai due gruppi per altre 4 settimane.
È stato quindi evidenziato che, dopo il consumo della bevanda, i partecipanti vedevano la loro glicemia a digiuno scendere in media da 164 a 116 mg/dl.
Si tratterebbe del primo studio clinico che esamina gli effetti della kombucha nelle persone con diabete tipo 2: sarà necessario fare ulteriori ricerche, ma questo risultato appare comunque promettente.
È evidente che è necessario essere prudenti, anche perché si tratta di un esperimento che ha coinvolto un esiguo numero di partecipanti. Gli stessi ricercatori convengono sul fatto che bisognerà approfondire meglio la questione prima di stabilire un legame definitivo fra la kombucha e il livello di glucosio nel sangue.
Nel mondo ci sono però sempre più persone in prediabete e il diabete rimane una delle principali cause di mortalità, oltre ad essere un fattore di rischio importante per patologie cardiache-, renali e ictus. Se venisse confermato anche da studi più sostanziosi che la kombucha può aiutare ad abbassare le glicemie sarebbe veramente una buona notizia!
