Ornamental plants that can stabilize blood sugar

    Hương Giang (Theo Bệnh viện Đa khoa Medlatec) |

    Periwinkle, in addition to being grown as an ornamental plant, also has many medicinal uses, including the ability to stabilize blood sugar.

    Alkaloid compounds: Periwinkle contains alkaloids such as vincristine and vinblastine, which inhibit the growth of cancer cells and support the treatment of diabetes.

    Antioxidants: The antioxidants in periwinkle help protect cells from free radical damage, thereby aiding in controlling blood sugar levels.

    Hypoglycemic effects: Some studies show that periwinkle extract may help lower blood sugar levels in people with diabetes.

    Periwinkle can be used as a medicinal herb by making a decoction, cooking it into a liquid extract, or applying it to the skin. The best oral dose is not >20g of dried periwinkle/day.

    Periwinkle can cause some side effects like nausea, vomiting and diarrhea if used in excess. Therefore, it is necessary to consult a medical professional before using it.
