Phosphonates are disclosed which stimulate the enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and inhibit the enzyme 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase, thereby lowering glucose levels in mammals. These phosphonates may thus be used to treat hyperglycemia and/or diabetes. Processes for the synthesis of the phosphonates are also disclosed.
