Abstract
The effects of Cinnamon zeylanicum (CZ) bark extracts on productivity of male
diabetic albino rats testosterone stages were studied. The experimentation was carried out
on 24 male albino rats allocated into 4 equivalent groups of 6 animals each. One group
was served as a normal control, whereas rats of the groups (2) were given Alloxan (120
mg.B.W / day for 3 days) by intraperitoneal injection for induction of diabetes was
leftward as a diabetic control, while rats of groups (3) CZ extract treated by 500 mg.kg
B.W.orally, while rats of groups (4) CZ extract treated 500 mg. BW orally,for 6 weeks
without alloxan treatment. Results showed that oral administration of CZ extracts to
diabetic rats for 6 weeks significant increased serum testosterone levels. The dose of
extracts ameliorated the degenerative lesions which found in diabetic rats testes, This
study recommend that drinking of CZ bark as a extract may be beneficial for diabetic
patients who suffer from sexual impotency as it improve fertility and lessen the high
blood glucose level in male diabetic rats.
