Preventive Epigenetic Mechanisms of Functional Foods for Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a growing global health problem that requires new and effective prevention and management strategies. Recent research has highlighted the role of epigenetic changes in the development and progression of T2D, and the potential of functional foods as a complementary therapy fo...
