The aim of this study was to manage diabetes with medicinal plants (Gymnema sylvestre, Artemisia absinthium and Citillus colocynthis) in human patients with type II diabetes. Thirty two patients of type II diabetes from both sexes of 30-60 years age were registered for this study and distributed them into four groups, each having 8 patients. Capsules of each, Gymnema sylvestre, Artemisia absinthium and Citrullus colocynthis were given to patients twice a day for 30 days in 1 g per day dosage and investigated for glucose, triglyceride (TGL) and cholesterol level. Gymnema sylvestre reduced 37% glucose, 5% TGL, 13% cholesterol and 19% low desity lipoproteins (LDL) level in diabetic individuals. Citrullus colocynth reduced glucose, cholesterol and TGL and HDL-cholesterol level by 35, 6, 6, and 5%, respectively. Artemisia absinthium reduced 3% high desity lipoproteins (HDL) and 6% LDL level. From results, it can be concluded that the powdered Gymnema sylvestre, Citrulus colocynthis, and Artemisia absinthium possess good anti-diabetic features, however these herbal products had no significant effect on lipid profiles of the diabetic human.
本研究的目的是使用药用植物(匙羹藤、苦艾和药西瓜)对II型糖尿病患者进行糖尿病管理。32名年龄在30至60岁之间的II型糖尿病患者(男女皆有)登记参加了本研究,并将他们分为四组,每组8名患者。分别给予匙羹藤、苦艾和药西瓜的胶囊,每天两次,每次1克,持续30天,并对血糖、甘油三酯(TGL)和胆固醇水平进行检测。匙羹藤使糖尿病个体的血糖降低了37%,甘油三酯降低了5%,胆固醇降低了13%,低密度脂蛋白(LDL)水平降低了19%。药西瓜使血糖、胆固醇、甘油三酯和高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平分别降低了35%、6%、6%和5%。苦艾使高密度脂蛋白(HDL)降低了3%,低密度脂蛋白降低了6%。从结果可以得出结论,匙羹藤、药西瓜和苦艾的粉末具有良好的抗糖尿病特性,然而这些草药产品对糖尿病患者的血脂水平没有显著影响。
