Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effects of total flavonoids in Selaginella tamariscina on diabetes, cholesterol levels, and antioxidant activity in mice.
- Results showed that TFST reduced blood glucose, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels in diabetic mice, while improving insulin levels and liver health markers.
- The research concluded that TFST effectively lowers high blood sugar through its antioxidant and antihyperlipidaemic properties, enhancing liver insulin sensitivity without affecting normal glucose levels.
