Results: The mean blood glucose levels were highest 172.02 ± 21.40 mg / dl is the K II. Lowest mean glucose levels were 112.72 ± 14.49 mg / dl for KV. Score the highest rates of pancreatic beta cell damage that is at the K II, while the lowest in the K V. Conclusion: Ginger Juice effect on blood glucose levels alloxan-induced rats.
