This study investigated the effects of vitamin C supplementation on insulin resistance and oxidative stress in people with type 2 diabetes. Participants were given vitamin C or no supplementation for 4 months. The results showed that vitamin C supplementation ameliorates oxidative stress and insulin resistance in people with type 2 diabetes.
