상엽과 상심자, 구기자, 인삼 등은 당뇨에 효능이 있는 것으로 널리 알려진 약재들이다. 본 실험에서는 기본 실험을 통하여 상엽, 상심자, 구기자, 인삼, 차가버섯의 최적 배합비와 최적의 추출방법으로 엑기스 형태로 만들어진 소당엑스$^{TM}$와 이를 특허 출원한 방법으로 백미에 코팅한 소당미$^{TM}$를 사용하여 시험한 결과 Alloxan으로 당뇨를 유도한 마우스, 정상인, 그리고 당뇨환자 모두에서 혈당이 저하되었음을 확인하였다. 따라서 소당엑스$^{TM}$와 소당미$^{TM}$는 당뇨환자의 혈당 조직 및 합병증 예방에 효과적이므로 당뇨식이요법제로서 이용될 수 있는 건강 식품으로 사료된다.
Mulberry, Morifolium leaves and fruits, Lycii fructus, and Panax ginseng have been known to maintain normal blood sugar levels in folk medicine. Here we investigated the effects of coated rice (Sodangmi$^{TM}$) with these herb extracts to diabetes mellitus patients. Alloxan-induced diabetic mice (80 mg/kg bw, i.v.) separated into 4 groups. 2 groups received the mixed extracts of these plants (Sodans Extract$^{TM}$) orally everyday for 4 weeks. Positive control received Alloxan except Sodans Extract$^{TM}$. Negative control received neither Alloxan nor Sodang Extract$^{TM}$. Blood sugar levels, volume of water consumed, body weights of each group were measured and compared. Blood sugar levels in the Alloxan and Sodang Extract$^{TM}$-received groups got close to normal levels on 4th week after starting the experiments. Volume of water consumed also showed similar pattern. Blood sugar levels in positive control remained high through the experimental periods. Body weights in positive control remained low, but those in the extracts-received groups recovered to normal levels. The clinical trials for both of healthy volunteers and diabetes mellitus patients also showed Sodangmi$^{TM}$ could control blood sugar level. The blood sugar level decreased since 3rd week after starting to receive Sodangmi$^{TM}$, and the difference between the blood sugar level before and after the meal was decreased significantly by receiving Sodangmi$^{TM}$. From these results, we suggest that the functional rice with herb extracts could be used as a new alimentotherapy for diabetes mellitus patients.llitus patients.
