The еffects of low mineral content water on microbiota, metabolic, and oxidative stress parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Although scientific evidence has shown that natural mineral waters have potential beneficial metabolic effects, there is still very scarce data on their influence on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The study was designed to investigate the effects of low mineral water from the "Sneznik-1/79″ source in Serbia on microbiota, metabolic, and oxidative stress parameters in patients with T2DM. In total, 60 patients with confirmed T2DM were included in the study, and they consumed "Sneznik-1/79″ water for 28 days.
