Abstract
Previous investigation showed that alioxan partially destroys the pancreatic islets of langerhans House, (1958), and is being used experimentally to induce diabetes in rodents, Afloxan changed ine ultra structure of lead to the recovery of the destructed beta-cells caused by alioxan Ibrahim etal., (1979). Jenkins et al. (1978), found that leguminous seeds libers has been used successfully in the diet to reduce glu-cosun'a in diabetics. rats islets similarjy^asjo raWtfs_Wt__AnclefSon, (1979), found that such liamson and Lacy, (1959), leading to insulin deficiency and consequently hyperglycemia, glucosuria and decreased glycogen content in the animal body Scarborough, (1970), as well as disturbance in lipid metabolism Martin etal., (1983). It was reported by some research workers that feeding on Jiet containing raw legumenous seeds as raw soy been with a naturally high trypsin inhibitor content developed hypertrophy of the acinar cells of exocrine pancreas Melmed et al., (1973), and may diet have successfully reduced serum triglycerides concentration in hyper-trig lyceridaemic men. Miranda and Horwitz (1978), suggested that it is possible to achieve substantial lowering of blood glucose level of diabetic patients by increasing dietary fibre content, without the need for increasing insulin.
