Core Tip
Core Tip: Changes in diet can lead to changes in the composition of gut microbiota in diabetic patients. On the other hand, taking hypoglycemic drugs can also change the gut microbiota. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the dietary structure and the use of hypoglycemic drugs in the study of changes in the intestinal flora of patients with diabetes.
