Hypoglycemic and Antihyperlipidemic effects of Syzygium cumini (Lamarck) Skeels and Syzygiumpaniculatum (Gaertn.). Rev. colomb. cienc. quim. farm. [online]. 2021, vol.50, n.3, pp.664-676.

Introduction:
there is a recent increase in interest in the use of medicinal and phytotherapeutic plants.
Objective:
to verify the effect of ethanolic extracts from different parts of fruits of two species of the genus Syzygium, on glucose and lipid levels in the blood, using animal models.
Results:
the bark extract of the seeds of S. cumini (Lamarck) Skeels proved to be effective in reducing blood glucose levels. This same extract was also effective in lowering blood cholesterol levels. The extract from the seed nuclei of S. cumini (Lamarck) Skeels and S. paniculatum (Gaertn) were effective in reducing blood triglyceride levels. Extracts from all parts of the fruits of S. cumini (Lamarck) Skeels and of the seed nuclei of S. panic-ulatum (Gaertn) prevented weight gain in the animals.
Conclusión:
in general, the seed extract of both species showed a direct influence on the parameters and characteristics under study.
