ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of Ganoderma lucidum spore powder on sugar tolerance and intestinal flora of diabetes rats induced by streptozotocin (STZ). Methods The diabetes model rats (divided into 2 groups: the therapy group and the control) were intragastric administration with equal volume of Ganoderma lucidum spore powder and distilled water for 10 weeks, respectively. Then the blood glucose level and intestinal flora amount were tested. Results The abnormal sugar tolerance of therapy group rats returned to normal and the amount of Bacillus bifidus in intestinal flora also recovered. There were significant differences compared with control. Conclusion Canoderma lucidum spore powder can decrease blood sugar level and adjusts intestinal flora amount of experiment rats.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of Tangmaikang granules on blood sugar and sugar tolerance in diabetic mice and on the sugar tolerance of normal rats.METHODS: The diabetic mouse model was induced by alloxan,and the effects of different dosage of Tangmaikang granules on blood sugar and sugar tolerance in experimental diabetic mice and on the sugar tolerance of normal rats were observed.RESULTS: Tangmaikang granules(Medium-dose and high-dose) could downregulate the blood sugar level of experimental diabetic mice and inhibited the glucose-induced increase of the blood sugar level,showing significant differences as compared with the model group(P
