17. •The type-2 diabetes mellitus patients of
experimental group showed significant decrease
in glycosylated hemoglobin.
•The control group did not show significant
level difference in the glycosylated hemoglobin.
These findings confirm the earlier findings of
Jain et al., (1993); Singh et al., (2004) and
Sahay, (2007).
