Journal Title: International Journal of Diabetology & Vascular Disease Research (IJDVR) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
The aqueous extract of E. centaurium, administered to merione at 200 mg/kg for 6 months produced a significant reduction in glycemia, insulinemia, fructosamine and glycosylated haemoglobin. It also exhibited an important decrease of lipidic parameters such as cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglycerids. The results showed no significant diminution of the weight.
