Overview
Brief Summary
This study aims to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial on individuals diagnosed with type II diabetes mellitus. The objective is to assess the impact of consuming fresh moringa leaves (50gm) juice on random blood glucose levels. These leaves have been recognized as effective hypoglycemic agents; however, no randomized controlled trial has been conducted among the Indian population to date, specifically utilizing random blood glucose levels, as well as systolic and diastolic blood pressure as secondary outcomes of the study. The null hypothesis states that there is no correlation between the consumption of moringa leaf juice and random blood glucose levels among individuals with type II diabetes. Conversely, the alternative hypothesis suggests that there is indeed a relationship between the consumption of moringa leaf juice and random blood glucose levels among individuals with type II diabetes.
