A trial was carried out to study the possibility of using
fenugreek powder in the treatment of diabetes type(2). 48
Newzealand white male rabbits ( five months old)were used
in this experiment.Theexperimental animals were randomly
divided into fo
ur groups. By using Aloluxan, we enforced
diabetes type2 in three of the four groups of the
experimental animals. The animals of the fourth group
remained as a natural healthy control.
Two experiments were conducted to test the effect of pelleted foods on the
growth of California white rabbit.
٣٦ weaned rabbits, used in the first experiment, were distributed randomly
and equally inside ٦ boxes. Pelleted and ground foods having t
he same
composition were offered simultanously to be eaten ad libitum for ٢٥ days.
Another ٢٤ weened rabbits, used in the second experiment, were also divided
randomly and equally into two groups. Pelleted and ground foods were offered
to the first and second group respictively to be eaten ad libitum for ٢٥ days.
