Abstract
lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and non–high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (Non–HDL-C) and a significant increase in highdensity
lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. In conclusion, the results obtained suggest that BGP holds promise to be used as a
functional food to optimise the health of diabetic subjects.
Key words: Barley grass powder, diabetes, fasting blood sugar, lipid levels
