HYPOGLYCEMIC EFFECTS OF ARW AND TREATED BEANS AND PEAS ON DIABTIC RATS AS WELL AS THE CLINICAL STATUS OF LIVER FUNCTION.
Abstract: This study has been designed with the purpose of elucidating the effect of some legumes (white beans and peas) raw and treated materials as hypoglycemic agents as well as determine their effects on liver and kidney’s function. The obtained results showed that feeding on soaked-cooked white beans or soaked-cooked peas to alloxanized diabetic male rats had a powerful hypoglycemic agent, which acted as glucose lowering agent. In addition, diabetic animals showed a general improvement in their clinical status, as reflected by blood parameters (the activities of GOT and GPT as well as plasma protein, albumin and globulin contents) and by body weight gain in which hyperglycemia was significantly reduced. The feeding on 40% dried soaked-cooked beans gave the best results concerning biological studies then the other treatments. In conclusion, the feeding on the studied legumes (white beans and peas) either raw or soaked-cooked materials, improved the disturbed effects of alloxanized diabetes but with different degree on the metabolism of diabetic animals.
