Researchers at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and the World Federation of Acupuncture-Moxibustion Societies assessed the effects and safety of acupuncture as a treatment for Type 2 diabetes. They reported their findings in an article published in the journal Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that acupuncture can be used as a supplementary treatment for the management of Type 2 diabetes, especially by individuals who suffer from obesity or other metabolic disorders.
