Hypoglycemic and Hypolipidemic Effects of Leonotis mollisima Aqueous Leaf Extract in Type 2 Diabetic Rats

<i>Leonotis mollissima</i> aqueous leaf extract exhibits significant hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects in type 2 diabetic Wistar rats, supporting its traditional use. The extract's ability to improve glycemic control, lipid profiles, and pancreatic histoarchitecture suggests its potential as a therapeutic agent for managing diabetes and its complications. Further research is recommended to isolate active compounds and evaluate their efficacy in clinical trials.
