KUALA LUMPUR: It takes some bitterness to fight the nemesis of those who have a sweet tooth. And as it turns out, using bittergourd to fight diabetes is not an old wives’ tale after all.

With the ever-growing numbers of diabetics, many pharmaceutical companies are looking for alternative cures, and they have discovered that bittergourd works to control blood sugar levels.

It has been used as an Ayurvedic treatment for diabetes for centuries.

CCM Duopharma Berhad, a Chemical Company of Malaysia (CCM) subsidiary, has developed bittergourd capsules which can be used as a preventive measure to help keep diabetes at bay.

This could indirectly help to lower the number of patients with the disease.
