Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change in Blood Sugar and lipid profiles
Time Frame: baseline and 6 weeks
Change in of blood sugar out come will be measured by Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS), Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and Postprandial Blood Sugar (PPBS). Change in lipid profiles are measured by Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL), High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) and Total Cholesterol (TC).
Secondary Outcomes
- Clinical laboratory evaluations(0 and week 6)
