Oral administration of clear aqueous extract from 2 g of ginger root/animal to fasting rabbits showed 16% lower blood sugar level compared to control administration. Improved oral glucose tolerance was shown when the animals were orally administered with the aqueous ginger extract. Glucose tolerance test did not show significant improvement following administration of aqueous suspcnssion of ginger material as compared to control study. supposedly due to interference of starch material's presence in the administratered material. Ginger constituents extracted in lipid solvent improved glucose tolerance as well as showed hypoglycemia in the fasting animals but could not compare to results of aqueous extracted constituents from ginger. Presence of hypoglycemic constituents of lipid as well as other nature arc reported from the study.
