Elderberry extracts dietary supplementation effects on (A) fasting blood glucose concentration; (B) fasting plasma insulin; (C) insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR); and (D) β cells function index (HOMA-β) on high-fat diet fed STZ-induced diabetic rats. Diabetic rats without dietary supplementation and non-diabetic rats were also followed-up. NDB: non-diabetic group; DBNS: diabetic group/not supplemented; DBPE: diabetic group/supplemented with polar extract; and DBLE: diabetic group/supplemented with lipophilic extract. Mean values with different letters show statistically significant differences (p < 0.05, LSD’s Fisher test).
