Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Serum glucose levels (mg/dl)
Serum glucose levels will be recorded will be recorded at baseline and 12 weeks after beginning the treatment. Measurement units will be mg/dl.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Homeostasis model assessment (HOMA)
Insulin resistance will be recorded by the Homeostasis model assessment (HOMA). The calculation formula is: Serum Glucose x Serum Insulin / 405
