Gestational type-2-diabetes
Supplements studied for gestational type-2-diabetes.
Overview
Inositol (WA 72; medium effect size, high evidence, very high trust) has medium evidence: myo-inositol with folic acid during pregnancy may reduce gestational type-2-diabetes risk and insulin needs in at-risk women, with variable effects on birth outcomes. Nattokinase entries (WA 56) reflect soy food intake research suggesting lower GDM risk with adequate soy consumption, not nattokinase supplements directly.
Probiotics (WA 64; medium effect size, medium evidence, high trust) are possibly effective per limited evidence. Vitamin D (WA 56; low effect size, very high evidence, medium trust; 12 studies) shows mixed results for prevention and glycemic control. Iodine has insufficient evidence. The heatmap and evidence reviews below cover all six supplements.
