The effects of insulin or honey or both blood sugar and body weight of studied rats. Blood sugar (mg/dl): , comparing the untreated diabetic group (D) with the control group (C), the diabetic group treated insulin (DI), and lycopene and insulin simultaneously (DIL). , comparing the untreated diabetic group (D) with the diabetic group treated with lycopene (DL). Body weight (gr): , comparing the untreated diabetic group (D) with the control group (C), the diabetic group treated insulin (DI), and lycopene and insulin simultaneously (DIL). No significant difference between the untreated diabetic group (D) and the diabetic group treated with lycopene (DL). Bar graph indicates the mean ± SEM.
