ESTIMATION INFLUENCES OF GREEN TEA AS A MEDICAL HERB FOR TREATING DIABETES MELLITUS

Hyperglycemia means glucose toxicity and increases the ability of glucose to glycate proteins .The present study is an attempt to confirm that diabetes is a member of oxidative stress and to show the effect of green tea as therapeutic herbal on such group. This study enrolled twelve male rabbits divided into two groups, G (1,n=6) as control group ,G(2,n=6) as diabetic group under treatment with green tea.The result reveled that trace element such as copper and zinc shows no change in there levels in both groups while the biological level of (GSH, MDA,Vit.C, and Vit. E) were increased scientifically after treatment while decrease levels uric acid and allontion were noticed .
