Key Findings
- The SRM Institute of Science and Technology reviewed studies on red beetroot's impact on blood sugar levels in various health conditions like T2DM, obesity, and hypertension
- The review found mixed results, likely due to differences in study design, dosage, duration, and participant populations
- More standardized studies with diverse participant groups are needed to fully understand beetroot's role in managing blood sugar levels
