The Flavonoid Rutin Modulates GLP-1 Secretion and Glucose Metabolism in Animals
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a gut hormone that modulates postprandial levels of lipids and glucose. This series of preclinical investigations shows that, in an animal model of type 2 diabetes, dietary addition of either rutin or of Tartary Buckwheat (a rutin-rich relative of common buckwheat) has beneficial effects on blood glucose and HbA1c levels as well as pancreatic beta cell function. These influences were found to be dose-dependent upon intakes of rutin, which was discovered to activate GLP-1.
