The aim of this study is to investigate the probable effects of Tinnas grewia extract (TGE) on complete blood cells and serum antioxidant enzymes level in rats by the dose of (2,4,6 and 8ml orally/day). Thirty 30 male albino rats about (150±10g) were used in this study, and then divided into five equal groups each (6 rats). The first one considers a control negative group that fed on a basal diet all the time during the experiment, the other groups (24 rats) were fed on a stander diet + the Oral doses of TGE for (4 weeks). Complete blood cells count levels (HB, HCT, RBCs and PLT ) showed significant increases compared with the negative control group. WBCs showed a decrease. For antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GSH and GPx) were significantly increase comparing with control (-ve).

This study aims to investigate the effect of fennel and barley seeds on 24 rats with inflicted kidneys weighing 150 ± 10g. Rats were fed on basal diet for 7 consecutive days on basal diet, then divided into 6 groups each of 4 rats. The first was negative control group fed on the basal diet, and the second was positive group injected with gentamicin (10 mg/kg body weight) twice a week for four weeks. As for the other groups, rats treated with 5%, 10%, fennel seeds (FS) and 5%, 10% barley seeds (BS). After twice a week for four weeks of the experiment, rats weight was measured, blood samples were taken for biochemical analysis. Fennel seeds (FS) 10% has best effect in lowering glucose, barley 10% improved enzyme activity Alanine transform (ALT) and fennel 5% improved high-density cholesterol (HDL-C). Barley seeds (BS) 10% has best effect on lowering triglycerides, barley 5% improved low-density lipoprotein and activity of creatinine and urea. Barley seeds (BS) 10% has best effect in lowering activity of total cholesterol and barley 5% acted better in decreasing activity of liver enzymes alkaline phosphatase and glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (ALP, AST). The histological investigation confirmed the fact that treatments with fennel and barley seeds mitigation the kidneys and livers diseases. Fennel and barley seeds has good effects on liver and kidney functions, glucose and lipid levels.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla), garcinia (Garcinia cambogia) and mixture of both on male obese rats. Thirty (30) adult male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into five groups. Group (1): Normal rats fed on basal diet as control negative (C-), Group (2): Control positive (C+) (untreated group). Group (3): Obese rats fed on basal diet and Chamomile (5%). Group ( 4): Obese rats fed on basal diet and Garcinia (5%). Group ( 5): Obese rats fed on basal diet and mixture of both (5%). At the end of experiment, after 28 days of feeding, all serum samples were analyzed for biochemical parameters. Body weight gain , feed intake and feed efficiency ratio also calculated. Obesity led to a significant (P ≤ 0.05) decrease in the level of HDL & AST/ALT while a significant (P ≤ 0.05) increase was recorded in TC, TG, VLDL, LDL, AI, U.A, Creatinine, Urea, GOT, GPT, ALP & Glucose. Obese rats were fed on different diets and the results showed amarked improvement in all the different indicators.Improvement was more pronounced for garcinia compared to chamomile diets, and the best group was recorded for the mix group, indicating a synergistic action. It is therefore recommended to use them as effective treatments in reducing the accumulation of harmful fat in the body and reducing weight.
