How was it conducted?

The probiotic was orally fed to a batch of diabetic rats for 90 days, while the team kept a close watch on its effects on blood glucose levels, and comparing findings with diabetic rats who didn’t receive the dose.

When the 90 days were over, researchers discovered that rodents with the modified probiotic showed a 30% decrease in blood sugar levels than those who didn’t receive it. Basically, the rats' upper intestinal epithelial cells were converted to resemble pancreatic beta cells that produce insulin and regulate blood glucose levels in individuals with robust health.
