Anti-diabetic effects of Sutherlandia frutescens in Wistar rats fed a diabetogenic diet
Abstract
Sutherlandia frutescens has been marked as a potential hypoglycaemic agent for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. We investigated the effects of Sutherlandia frutescens in bringing about hypoglycaemia and promoting glucose uptake in pre-diabetic rats. Crushed Sutherlandia frutescens leaves in drinking water were administered to rats fed a high fat diet. Positive control rats received only metformin. Glucose uptake experiments were undertaken...
