The results showed that the micronutrient supplement improved important parameters involved in diabetes, indicating a reduced progression to diabetes in these participants. Additionally, a reduction of total and LDL cholesterol was observable in the intervention group. After the test period, a higher percentage of diabetes patients was observed in the placebo group (25.4% vs. 7.3%).
