Drink more green tea

Green tea has long been recognized for its health benefits, including enhanced insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetics. Green tea was studied not just for its benefits on insulin resistance, but also for its impact on cognitive disorders including memory loss, which has been linked to poor diet.

Green tea use has been shown in several studies to improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels. A study of 17 studies, for example, looked into the effects of green tea on blood sugar and insulin sensitivity. Green tea consumption was found to lower fasting blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity. Green tea's health benefits might be due to the potent antioxidant epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which has been shown in some studies to improve insulin sensitivity.
