Ginseng played a significant role in the management of diabetes in China and in other Asian countries for a long period of time. It has a large number of pharmacological properties and is relatively free from adverse effects. As a part of Ontario Ginseng Research and Innovation Consortium, we investigated the effects of ginseng extract on diabetes and its complications. We demonstrated large number of beneficial effects of ginseng therapy and showed that these effects are possibly mediated through its antioxidant properties. Thus ginseng may lend itself as a relatively safe and inexpensive adjuvant treatment for diabetes and chronic diabetic complications.
长期以来，人参在中国和其他亚洲国家的糖尿病治疗中发挥了重要作用。它具有多种药理特性，且不良反应相对较少。作为安大略人参研究与创新联盟的一部分，我们研究了人参提取物对糖尿病及其并发症的影响。我们证明了人参治疗具有大量有益作用，并表明这些作用可能是通过其抗氧化特性介导的。因此，人参可能是一种相对安全且廉价的糖尿病及慢性糖尿病并发症辅助治疗药物。
