Abstract
Effect of Glucose Tolerance Factor (GTF) extracted from commercially available yeast extract powder was examined on streptozotocin diabetic rats. Different doses of GTF preparation were injected into diabetic rats, with no addition of exogenous insulin. Within two hours there was a significant decrease both in blood glucose and free fatty acids (FFA) levels in the diabetic animals, indicating an anti-diabetic potential of GTF.Entities:
