PL supplementation is antihyperglycemic and increases insulin sensitivity. A Fasting plasma glucose was measured Day (D0, D15 and D30) after the introduction of PL juice with restricted diet. B 0.75 I.U of insulin was to the experimental mice and glucose level was measured at T(minutes) 0, 30, 45, 60, and 120. C Area under curve (AUC) for insulin sensitivity test. PL juice supplementation reverses obesity and improves lipid profile (D) Weight change after 30 days of PL juice supplementation. E Area under curve for weight changes. F Plasma lipid profile after PL juice supplementation total cholesterol (CHO), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), triglycerides (TG), calculated low-density lipoproteins (LDL-c). (G) Fat pad distribution on the normal, obese, restricted diet and PL juice supplemented groups data shown in means S.E.M ***P < 0.001, **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05
