Abstract: Despite the fact that olive tree extracts have been used for long time as antidiabetics in Mediterranean folk medicine, there are few studies providing support to this view. To assess the effect of rich-polyphenols olive extract on glucose metabolism and insulin resistance, a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial was conducted on human subjects with type 2 diabetes.80 T2DM patients were randomized to receive 3 g of olive tree powder or placebo during 14 weeks. changes from baseline in glucose metabolism, insulin resistance, and lipid profile were determined and compared between groups. The lipid profile levels of treated group have been decreased significantly (p
