Can Alkaline Water Help Fight Diabetes?
A 2006 study found that alkaline-reduced water may have an anti-diabetic effect on OLETF rats, suggesting potential benefits for diabetes management in humans. The study showed improved insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels in rats drinking alkaline water. This could imply that alkaline water, rich in minerals like magnesium, might help regulate blood sugar levels in people, especially those at risk of or living with diabetes.
