Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that persists with an individual throughout their life, leading to numerous complications and negatively affecting all body organs, starting from the skin and ending with the bones. Passing through all tissues and organs, including the heart and blood vessels. It also affects the patient or their relatives economically. The trend towards alternative medicine has become less harmful to human health and less costly due to the availability of plants and the low cost of extracting raw materials from them. This study aimed to determine the effect of the Pelargonium odoratissimum plant on glucose levels and glycosylated hemoglobin in diabetic patients. The study was conducted on 35 volunteer participants, including 20 diabetic patients and 15 healthy individuals. Where the extract of the plant was administered at a dose of 50 ml daily for three months to investigate the plant's effect and compare it with a reference. Blood samples were collected from all individuals before using the extract and after each month during the study period to measure blood glucose levels and glycated hemoglobin levels after three months. The results showed a significant decrease in blood glucose levels and glycosylated hemoglobin in the patients after treatment with the extract.
Conclusion: The concentrated Pelargonium odoratissimum extract has a clear blood sugar-lowering effect; however, it is necessary to delve deeper and conduct more research and new scientific studies to confirm the obtained results, particularly the isolation of the active substance from the plant.
