tlooto Summary

Syzygium jambolanum extracts show strong antidiabetic effects by lowering blood glu-cose and enhancing insulin activity, and their rich antioxidant content protects pancreatic β-cells from oxidative stress, which helps improve glycemic control and metabolic health in diabetic conditions.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION Syzygium jambolanum has long been used to treat diabetes mellitus in herbal therapy. Scientists are interested in confirming its effectiveness in reducing blood glucose and enhancing metabolic parameters through clinical and biochemical evaluations.

METHODS Groups of people with diabetes who were receiving treatment and those who were not were separated. Supplementation with Syzygium jambolanum was given to the treatment group. Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG), HbA1c, SGPT, SGOT, serum urea, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), uric acid, alkaline phosphatase, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and creatinine were among the biochemical markers that were evaluated.

RESULTS When compared to the untreated group, the treated group's fasting blood glucose levels were significantly lower. Indicating improved glycaemic control and organ function, the treated group also showed notable improvements in other indicators, including HbA1c, SGPT, SGOT, serum urea, BUN, uric acid, alkaline phosphatase, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and creatinine.

DISCUSSION Syzygium jambolanum extracts show strong antidiabetic effects by lowering blood glu-cose and enhancing insulin activity. Their rich antioxidant content protects pancreatic β-cells from oxidative stress. Overall, the extracts help improve glycemic control and metabolic health in diabetic conditions.

CONCLUSION Syzygium jambolanum exhibits a potent antidiabetic action, markedly lowering blood sugar levels and biochemical indicators linked to problems from diabetes. It might work well as a natural supplement to help control diabetes.
