flag A natural plant compound sped healing of diabetic foot ulcers in studies, offering a potential low-cost treatment to prevent amputations.

flag Researchers at Nagaland University found that sinapic acid, a natural compound in edible plants, speeds healing of diabetic foot ulcers in preclinical studies by activating the SIRT1 pathway, with a lower dose (20 mg/kg) showing greater effectiveness than a higher dose. flag The compound improved tissue repair, reduced inflammation and oxidative stress, and enhanced metabolic health. flag Published in Nature Scientific Reports, the findings suggest a safe, affordable oral treatment that could reduce amputations, especially in underserved areas. flag The team plans pilot human trials to assess its real-world potential.
