Is it true that vitamin C supplementation lowers blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes?
Unclear. One small randomized trial reports that vitamin C supplementation (alone or with rutin) significantly reduced the percent change in fasting blood glucose versus controls in type 2 diabetes patients, though it had no effect on HbA1c or absolute fasting glucose. A second item is only a citation title asserting vitamin C lowers blood glucose, with no results shown.
