Abstract
Parsley (~etrosclimnn crispurn) is one of the plants used in Turkey and World folk medicine for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. In this study, oral administration of parsley leaves and seed aqueous extracts (2gkg) and methanolic extracts (200mgkg and 400mg/kg), to normal rabbits produced significant hypoglycemic activity, which was consistent and time-dependent. Many plant species are known to be medically used for the treatment of diabetes due to their hypogiycemic activities (1-6). Scientifically documented plants with an hypoglycemic activity have been reviewed recently (7-1 1). Petroselinrrm crisplmt (parsley) is widely disributed in Turkey and this plant is grown in garden and field. In folk medicine, the plant is used as antimicrobial (12), antianemic, menorrhagic (13), against lumbago, as blood pressure regulator, anticoagulant, antihyperlipidemic, against eczema, kneeache, impotence (14), nose bleeding (15) and as antihepatotoxic (16).
