It should firstly be mentioned that there isn't trusted and scientific establishment of this effect, it has for centuries been thought that a little understood part of green tea's natural benefits is the idea that it could aid the control of the negative effects of type 1 diabetes. Green tea works by controlling the coverage of the chemical glucose in the body, which can help to reduce the negative effects of diabetes.
Green tea can also be used to moderate blood sugar in the body and frequently has been used in this way for centuries. Recent studies have shown that green tea may have the benefit of preventing the ontogeny of type 1 diabetes and, once the disease then develops, may prevent the progression of the disease. Those that has type 1 diabetes for the most part develop only minor amounts of insulin. This is a hormone that aids the conversion of glucose, several starch compounds, and other foods into energy. Researchers have suggested that Chinese tea is able to adjust the levels of glucose in the blood stream, and so acts in a similar manner to the chemical insulin, although this is yet to be totally proven.
