- Abstract
- Several recent preliminary clinical studies have suggested that artichoke (Cynara scolymus L., Asterceae family) preparations may be capable of lowering post-prandial glycemia. The present study was designed to test this hypothesis in laboratory rats. To this aim, non-selected Wistar and genetically obese Zucker rats were acutely treated with a purified extract of Cynara s. flowering heads (500-1500 mg/kg by gavage) immediately prior to 1-hour access to a fixed amount of food. Glycemia was recorded 60, 120, and 360 min after food presentation. Treatment with Cynara s. flowering head extract resulted in a significant decrease of post-prandial glycemia in both rat strains. The lack of any fiber content in this Cynara s. flowering head extract excludes the involvement of dietary fibers in glycemia reduction. The results obtained constitute the first evidence of a hypoglycemic effect of an artichoke preparation in laboratory rodents and confirm previous observations made in humans. (literal)
