Klanceng Honey (Tetragonula laeviceps): Its effect on fasting blood glucose, lipid and hematological profiles, and pancreatic histopathology of diabetic rats

This study aims to assess the daily ingestion of Klanceng Honey (KH) on fasting blood glucose (FBG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and pancreatic histopathology. Thirty rats were involved and divided into six groups: G1 = untreated normal rats, G2 = untreated diabetic rats (DR), G3 = DR treated with 0.9 mg/kg BW glibenclamide, G4, G5, and G6 = DR treated with 1, 2, and 3 g/kg BW KH, respectively for 28 days. The FBG level of G1 was found lower than that of diabetic rat groups (G2–G6) (p
