The effect of crude garlic and its two organic extracts on blood glucose levels of rabbits have been studied. It was found that the petroleum ether extract and crude garlic juice had some hypoglycemic effect on the induced hyperglycemia in the experimental animals, whereas no effect was observed on the group fed on ethanol extract.
