There are sulfonylurea, bioguanides, alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, thiazolidinediones, insulin, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors and so on in diabetic drugs which have their indication and a lot of side effects. Therefore, many researchers develop drugs or extraction for natural products to improve metabolic syndrome and control diabetes, and moreover can reach prevention. Cordyceps has a large amount of biological ingredients which increase numbers of transporter proteins and stablelize concentration of blood glucose. Therefore, we found Cordyceps extract could prevent hyperglycemia in STZ-induced diabetic rats.
