| Abstract | ||
| Diabetes is a chronic condition brought on by either insufficient insulin production by the pancreas or inefficient insulin utilization by the body. Uncontrolled diabetes frequently results in diabetes, also known as elevated blood glucose, which causes major harm to numerous bodily systems. Determining the effect of plant leaves on the biochemical markers of diabetic rats was the aim of the study. Five groups of twenty-five male adult albino rats weighing 150±10 g. The first group was maintained as a negative control group and given a basal diet, while the other four groups received injections of alloxan to cause diabetes. The second group received a standard diet as a positive control group, and the third group was fed a basal diet along with 5% powdered quassia amara leaves. The fourth group received a 5% dose of powdered rhus coriaria leaves in addition to a basal diet. The fifth group received a 5% dose of powdered convolvulus arvensis leaves in addition to a basic diet. Relative organ weight, liver enzymes, kidney function, serum glucose level, and lipid profile all decreased in treated rats. In contrast to the positive control group, BWG, F.I., FER, and HDL-c all improved at the same time. In summary, the powdered leaves of this plant are used to treat diabetes because they contain bioactive compounds that can reduce chronic hyperglycemia without causing problems. | ||
