A 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis discovered that acupuncture, used alongside conventional treatment, was associated with better blood glucose control and some metabolic improvements in people with type 2 diabetes.

Effects of Acupuncture and Moxibustion on Heart Rate Variability in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Patients: Regulating the Autonomic Nervous System in a Clinical Randomized Controlled Trial
📣 NEW post - read the the full paper and join the discussion on the EBA Forum

Conclusion:
Acupuncture excelled in regulating the immediate effects of HRV, while moxibustion excelled in regulating long-term effects. Acupuncture targeting both the Zusanli and Guanyuan points proved more effective than acupuncture targeting a single point, with this difference reflected in the distinct regulatory effects on the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. The intervention mechanism of Zusanli may involve the parasympathetic nervous system, whereas Guanyuan may operate through the sympathetic nervous system.

Waking up early every morning has definitely challenged my Qi, but seeing her grow and thrive makes it all worth it. Grateful for this new chapter!
