Oral supplementation of 50mg isoflavones (mostly formononetin) from red clover for four weeks in postmenopausal women with type II diabetics was able to improve basal blood flow as assessed by forearm resistance (L-NMMA treatment) and reduced blood pressure by 8mmHg systolic and 4.3mmHg diastolic. No statistically significant changes were noted elsewhere.
