Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a disease marked by an increase in blood sugar levels. At present many sufferers of Diabetes Mellitus whose blood sugar levels are not controlled so that it can cause complications. The purpose of this study was to reduce blood sugar levels with black onion extract and binahong leaf extract on mice (mus musculus). This study uses a Quasy Experimental design with One Group pre-posttest. Samples were taken A total of 32 mice consisted of 16 in the intervention group and the comparison intervention group. The independent variables in this study were black onion extract and binahong leaf extract, while the dependent variable was the blood sugar level of mice. Data were collected by observation sheets and analyzed using Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Independent sample T-tests. The results of this study showed that the difference between pre and post-reduction of black onion extract was 66.4 mg/dl and the difference between pre and post administration of binahong leaf extract was 66.2 mg/dl. While the analysis shows the value of p = value 0.985. The results of this study indicate that extracts of black garlic and binahong leaves are equally effective in reducing blood sugar levels and that there are no significant differences in reducing blood sugar levels in mice. Thus both the black onion extract and the binahong leaf are equally effective in reducing blood sugar levels.

Highlights

  • Changes in lifestyle and socio-economics due to urbanization and modernization, especially in large cities in Indonesia, are the cause of the increasing prevalence of degenerative diseases and are thought to be the main cause of death in Indonesia

  • This study aims to determine the decrease in blood sugar levels in the group by giving black onion extract and binahong leaf extract on mice (Mus Musculus)

  • Statistical test results using the Independent sample t-test in the comparison of the two groups seen from a decrease in blood sugar levels showed ρ = 0.985, with a significance level of 0.05 ρ = 0.985> α 0.05

Summary

Introduction

Changes in lifestyle and socio-economics due to urbanization and modernization, especially in large cities in Indonesia, are the cause of the increasing prevalence of degenerative diseases and are thought to be the main cause of death in Indonesia.
