Vitamin E significantly reduced HbA1c levels, indicating improved long-term glycemic control.

Vitamin E intake was associated with a significant reduction in HOMA-IR, reflecting better insulin sensitivity.

Short-term interventions (<10 weeks) showed a moderate reduction in fasting blood glucose.

This meta-analysis builds on previous research by including newer RCTs. Compared to the 2014 meta-analysis, this study finds stronger evidence supporting vitamin E’s role in improving insulin resistance.

Vitamin E supplementation was tested in various forms and dosages, with most studies using alpha-tocopherol. The interventions ranged from 90 to 1620 mg/day.

Most interventions lasted between 4 and 52 weeks, with significant improvements in HbA1c and insulin resistance observed in short-term studies.

Vitamin E significantly improved HbA1c and insulin resistance but had no effect on fasting blood glucose. Short-term interventions were more effective in lowering fasting blood glucose levels.

The study systematically reviewed RCTs evaluating vitamin E supplementation in diabetic patients. It employed a random-effects model to calculate mean differences in glycemic indices and insulin resistance markers.

Studies were identified from PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, with strict inclusion criteria focusing on RCTs that examined fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, fasting insulin, and HOMA-IR.

Effect of Vitamin E on Glycemic Control in Diabetic Patients

This systematic review and meta-analysis assessed the effect of vitamin E supplementation on glycemic control and insulin resistance in diabetic patients. The analysis included 38 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with a total of 2,171 diabetic patients. The results indicate that vitamin E intake significantly improved HbA1c, fasting insulin, and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), but had no significant effect on fasting blood glucose. Short-term interventions (<10 weeks) showed a lowering effect on fasting blood glucose.

The findings suggest that vitamin E supplementation can be beneficial in improving insulin resistance and glycemic control among diabetic patients. However, the effects varied depending on the duration of the intervention and the type of diabetes. The study calls for further research to confirm these findings and explore optimal dosing strategies.
