Background
Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder caused by insulin resistance. Hyperglycemia is one of the diabetic symptoms. Noni Juice is herbal medicine. It can decrease blood glucose level. This study aims to determine the effect of noni juice on blood sugar levels on diabetic patients.
Methods
This study used 16 respondents. They divided two groups, a control group and a treatment group. Each group consists of 8 respondents. The intervention group received 150 ml of noni juice which was given once a day for ten days. Glucose testing was carried out by the glucocheck method. The blood was taken from the respondent's fingertips capillary. The results of blood glucose levels between the control group and the intervention group were analyzed using independent t-test.
Results
The average blood glucose level in the intervention group was 199.88 mg/dl, while the control group was 326.25 mg/dl. The test results of the mean blood glucose levels between the control group and the intervention group had a significant difference with a value of p= 0.003 (p≤ 0.05). This means that there was a significant effect between blood glucose levels in the control group and the intervention group.
Conclusion
Noni can reduce blood glucose levels because it contains flavonoid. It has a hypoglycemic effect. Health workers can suggest consuming noni juice to decrease blood glucose in diabetic patients.
