Abstract
The. current study aimed to prepare nutritive hypoglycemic br ads from local ingredients and fenugreek (either germinated or raw).
After preparing suggested breads, the panel test showed that wheat flour breads, wheat flour+ 5% germinated fenugreek bread, wheat flour+
5% ger:ninated fenugreek + 5% defatted soybean flour bread, and wheat flour + 5% raw fenugreek + 5% defatted soybean flour bread were the most accepted breads. A total of 48 adult male albino rats (90-1OO)g were used. rats were divided into two main diets (24 normal and 24 diabetic rats). All rats were fed the basal diet and the experimental diets for 28 day. During experiment period, Each rat was weighed every week, and food intake was calculated. Blood samples were collected by the
beginning and by the end of experimental. Blood was collected which "
was used freshly for estimation of serum glucose and the rest was kept at (-18.C) for determination of cholesterol, triglycerides ,total lipid, ALT, AST, and other blood parameters. The 'liver, kidneys, heart, and the spleen were removed from each rat and weighed.
Results showed that adding fenugreek (raw or germinated) and defatted soybean flour to balady bread resulted in decrement of glucose level in each of normal and diabetic rats. Hence,. the current study recommends the production of these breads as special foods for diabetic
patients.
