【Abstract】 This paper reports 21 cases of Diabetes Millitus treated with pectin in the year of1981 and 1982 in our hospital.The patients were given pectin in addition to the dieta-ry treatment and take the some patient before addition of pectin as control.The patients were 24 to 69 years of age,nine of them are males and twelve arefemales.They are all obese and Non-Insulin Dependent.After admission,the first month was taken as the control period,and the secondmonth as the pectin treatment period,and taken additional two weeks for reexamin-ations.Pectin was adopted with a dosage of 25 gram daily(10 gram after breakfast,15 gram after lunch).During pectin therapy,fasting blood sugar and 24 hrs urinary sugar were signifi-cantly decreased.(P<0.001).Oral glucose tolerance test was not improved.Seruminsulin levels revealed a lowering of different degrees,and serum insulin releasing testseemed to be improved.Some of the relevant literatures were reviewed.The mechanisms of pectin therapyin Diabetes Millitus were briefly discussed.We think that oral pectin is good andeffective for lowering blood sugar in Diabetes Millitus.More detailed clinical observ-ations including side effects of pectin and laboratory investigations are the subjectsof our further research work.更多还原
