Type 2 DM can cause oxidative stress which results in changes in endogenous antioxidant activity and also an increase in oxidative biomolecular damage. This condition causes patients with type 2 DM to require large amounts of exogenous antioxidant intake to inhibit oxidative damage in the body. One of the medicinal plants that has antihyperglycemic activity and high antioxidants is papaya (Carica papaya Linn). Based on a review of several studies noted that papaya contains vitamin C, fiber saponins and flavonoids that can lower blood glucose levels. However, to prove this effect, further clinical trials are needed to be done.}, keywords = {Carica papaya L,Glucose,Diabetes mellitus type 2}, url = {https://ijns.sums.ac.ir/article_45312.html}, eprint = {https://ijns.sums.ac.ir/article_45312_854c54f7a8d0e34c3a9823374fc7ec37.pdf} }
