In the first month of the dietary trials, a significant difference was observed between the different dietary formulations for total protein, albumin, blood glucose, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, total/HDL cholesterol, urea, chlorine, sodium and sodium/potassium. After two months of food consumption, albumin, globulin, albumin/globulin, triglycerides, AST, creatinine, calcium, sodium and sodium/potassium showed a significant difference between the foods tested. Three months of dietary trials reported only significant differences between foods for globulin, albumin/globulin, blood glucose, creatinine, urea and calcium. In the same vein, the study showed that the time of administration and the levels of Moringa oleifera leaf powder changed the levels of biochemical parameters in rats. Thus, the 50% content decreased the biochemical parameters the most compared to the controls. Conversely, the 100% content increased these biochemical parameters more. Consumption of Moringa oleifera leaf powder was more conducive to an increase in the level of biochemical parameters than to a decrease.</abstract></article-meta></front><body /><back /></article>
