Experimental study reveals significant antihyperglycemic effects in diabetic mice using musa paradisiaca extract, indicating its potential therapeutic use.
Key Points
Administration of a 15% musa paradisiaca stem extract significantly reduced blood glucose levels to 63.8 mg/dL.
Compared to metformin, the extract at 15% showed comparable antihyperglycemic effects, validating its potential as a natural remedy.
Higher concentrations (45%) were less effective, suggesting optimal dosage is critical for therapeutic efficacy.
The study utilized a controlled design with alloxan-induced hyperglycemia in male Balb/c mice to assess the treatment effects.
