herbal medicine for diabetes - snake oil or real deal?

my relative's diabetes is getting worse, but he seeks non-western therapy first.

唐福消渴降糖胶囊, sold by company claimed to be direct affiliate of academy of traditional Chinese medicine, China "863 research" bla bla

If you know anything about this, could you please help with a comment?
