Methods
This study was an interventional clinical trial animal study. In this study 64 wistar rats were used, which were divided into 8 groups. The drug of Streptozocin was used to induce diabetes in 4 groups of rats. Three types of Acacia honey, Astragalus honey, and Nodoushan Yazd honey were used in 3 groups of diabetic rats and 3 groups of normal rats. 2 groups also were considered as control groups of diabetic and normal groups.Results
Difference in blood glucose of diabetic and normal rats was not significant in the receiver groups of different types of honey. Fructosamine levels also did not have significant differences in diabetic and normal groups. On the other hand, the honey consumption significantly increased insulin levels in healthy groups.Conclusion
The present study showed that three types of honey dont have any effect on blood glucose and fructosamine levels of serum of diabetic and normal rats, but they cause an increase in serum insulin levels. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that honey is a safe natural sweetener and even can be beneficial. Keywords:
