Body weight changes of all experimental groups, before and after 28 days of intervention

Group	Body weight (g)
	Initial	Final
NC	539.67±22.76	587.50±23.60*$
DC	479.00±20.62	464.17±16.01#
PHZ	468.00±16.01	456.50±39.07*#
AE250	475.50±23.75	460.50±39.14#

Groups consisted of normal control (NC), diabetic control (DC), phlorizin 60 mg/kg B.W. (PHZ), and AE at the doses of 250 mg/kg B.W. (AE250), 500 mg/kg B.W. (AE500), and 1000 mg/kg B.W. (AE1000). Data were expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 6). All the data were statistically significant at p < 0.05. *P < 0.05 compared to the initial value using paired t-test. ^$P < 0.05 compared to DC and ^#P < 0.05 compared to NC using Dunnett post-hoc test
