May Help Treat or Prevent Diabetes
Various early animal research shows that argan oil may help prevent diabetes. Various studies showed that people who added argan oil to their diets experienced a reduction in both insulin resistance [4] and fasting blood sugar [5]. These studies discovered that its effects on diabetes were due to the antioxidant properties of the oil.
