Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that affects humans body,
combining a group of metabolic disorders for a prolonged period. This
condition is due to the lifestyle and bad diet mainly, and may lead to severe
dangerous complications like angiopathy which may lead to myocardial
infarction and other serious health complications. Many drugs are being given
to treat hyperlipidemia which is one of the main angiopathy pathogenetic factor,
especially at modern period. But the side effects of these drugs stimulated
many doctors to find a better natural treatment, this is why nowadays,
researches are being made on the effect of herbal therapy on decreasing blood
lipids, thus decreasing the complications accompanied with it, having less side
effects than in usual synthetic drugs. Tapinambour (Jerusalem Artichoke) is one
of interesting herbal therapies due to its high content in fibers (mainly soluble)
that bind to fat in the small intestine preventing its absorption, in addition, it
contains high amount of inulin, which helps lowering glucose level and
decrease cholesterol level, helping in diabetes treatment, preventing vascular
damage.
