How does insulin therapy influence gut microbiota composition, and what are the implications for metabolic health in diabetic patients?
1. Insulin therapy can alter gut microbiota, potentially improving glucose metabolism and reducing inflammation in diabetic patients.
2. By modifying gut microbiota, insulin therapy helps enhance insulin sensitivity and lowers gut-derived endotoxins in diabetics.
3. Insulin therapy may shift gut microbiota towards strains that help regulate blood sugar levels, thereby improving metabolic outcomes in diabetes.
