| Abstract | ||
| This research aims to study the effect of cinnamon extract on blood sugar levels in diabetic rats. Rats were used and divided into four different groups according to the nature of the diet provided to them. The first group was given a normal, balanced diet, and the second group was given cinnamon in addition to the balanced diet. Diabetes was induced in the third and fourth groups by providing a diet high in sugars and fats for a certain period of time, and then the fourth group was given cinnamon extract to study its effect on blood sugar levels and lipid profiles. The results confirmed that the third and fourth groups that followed a high-sugar and high-fat diet had already developed diabetes, and when the fourth group was given cinnamon extract, the results recorded a significant decrease in blood sugar levels and fat profiles. From here, we conclude that cinnamon has a very effective role in regulating and normalizing blood sugar levels. | ||
