Investigation of the Effect of Coconut Palm Sugar on Metabolic Disorders in Experimental Diabetic Rats

Abstract

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder with many different underlying factors. Humans can develop Type 1 diabetes, which is brought on when the immune system assaults and destroys insulin, and Type 2 diabetes, which can be brought on by several variables, the most important of which is lifestyle, as well as by different genotypes. Due to the presence of polyphenols, which have high antioxidant qualities, Coconut Palm Sugar (CPS) is nutritious and has a good potential for managing diabetes. In this investigation, we took the STZ-Nicotinamide model for diabetes induction. In normal rats (Phase 1) and diabetes-induced rats (Phase 2), After exposure to table sugar and coconut palm sugar, we measured a variety of factors, including body weight, food intake, water consumption, blood sugar level, insulin level, insulin resistance, lipid profile, atherogenic index, and insulin resistance.
