By using a kind of new index for determining the sensitivity to insulin in human groups
viz. the reverse of the product of fasting insulin multiplied by fasting blood glucose
the effect of a Chinese drug
"Shiliang Jiantang Powder" on the insulin sensitivity in type- II diabetics was studied. Results showed that the sensitivity to insulin was increased after treatment (P <0. 05)
demonstrating that this remedy lowered the patient’s resistance to insulin.
