| ABSTRACT : Trigonella foenum graecum (fenugreek) seeds has been suggested to have potential anti diabetic effects. Twenty four white female rats were used to study the effect of oral administration of Trigonella seed extract with water tap on some biochemical parameters of alloxan induced diabetic rats. These animals were divided into four groups. The first group was a negative group treated with water tap, while the other groups (2-4) were treated with 150mg/kg alloxane for induced a diabetic. the second group was a positive group (diabetic group) treated with water tap. The third group treated with 0.04 gm/ml aqueous extract of fenugreek seeds for 28 days. The fourth group treated with 0.08 gm/ml aqueous extract of fenugreek seeds for 28 days. The result revealed a significant decrease in the level of blood glucose of the animals groups treated with 0.04 gm/ml and 0.08 gm/ml aqueous extract of fenugreek seeds compared with positive control group. Also, the results indicated non significant decreased in cholesterol, SGOT, SGPT third and fourth groups compared with normal and a diabetic groups. | ||
