简要总结
Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that causes high glucose levels in the blood and leads to various complications with time such as Retinopathy, neuropathy, and nephropathy, and puts a lot of burden on the health of a person as well as economy of country. Fenugreek is being used for decades in the treatment of various diseases and disorders including diabetes. With the advancement of medical nutrition therapy and processing techniques, it is being used in roasted or cooked form. But previous studies indicate that processing like roasting decrease the fiber content of fenugreek seed and this fiber mainly galactomannan is responsible for reducing hyperglycemia. Another study tells us that in raw form the glycemic index is lowered as compared to roasted or other forms.According to another study the antioxidant activity is increased in roasted form as compared form. So in this study, a clinical trial will be done on two groups of 15 type 2 diabetic patients each that have neither other complications nor on insulin therapy. These total 30 patients Height, Weight, BMI, Fasting and Random Blood sugars, HbA1c, and lipid profile will be checked before the study and after 3 months of a clinical trial. Group 1 will be given Raw fenugreek seed powder and group 2 will be given Roasted fenugreek seed powder 7.5 grams twice a day.The study will be single blinded.
详细描述
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder that is marked by high glucose levels in the blood because of insulin resistance or inability of the pancreas to make enough insulin for proper working of carbohydrate metabolism. It is easily obvious from the literature that its prevalence is increasing day by day and in future it seems to rise more. Its complications lead to more problematic situation for the health of diabetic person itself and the economy with each day. Its management includes diet, physical activity and medications. As a dietary component different spices are being used for years like cinnamon and fenugreek. Many people use fenugreek in various forms like its incorporation in chapatti, Indian dish Dosa and others but the form of fenugreek is still un known based on the effectiveness that either it will be more beneficial in cooked form like roasting or in raw form for reducing hyperglycemia, because many people take it in roasted form as it decreases its bitterness. As fenugreek is cheap it is of major concern of many diabetic patients for diabetes management.
This study is aimed to determine the effect of Raw versus Roasted Fenugreek seed powder in reducing the blood glucose levels in Type 2 Diabetic patients which will be evidenced by Fasting Blood Glucose, Random Blood Glucose and HbA1c
OBJECTIVE of the study is:
- To explore the potential of Raw and Roasted fenugreek against biomarkers of Type 2 Diabetes in Diabetic Patients.
The methodology of the study comprises of three different phases. Phase 1: Processing of fenugreek Phase 2: Assessment of diabetic patients regards to inclusion and exclusion criteria and groups assignment along with fenugreek sachets Phase 3: Assessment of biochemical tests and anthropometric measurements at the end of the study
