Abstract
Aloe vera L. high molecular weight fractions (AHM) containing less than 10 ppm of barbaloin and polysaccharide(MW:1000 kDa) with glycoprotein, verectin(MW:29 kDa), were prepared by patented hyper-dry system in combination of freeze–dry technique with microwave and far infrared radiation.AHMproduced significant decrease in blood glucose level sustained for 6 weeks of the start of the study. Significant decrease in triglycerides was only observed 4 weeks after treatment and continued thereafter. No deterious effects on kidney and liver functions were apparent. Treatment of diabetic patients withAHMmay relief vascular complications probably via activation of immunosystem
