In an HFD/STZ-induced T2DM model, HLJDD (0.42 g/kg/d or 1.25 g/kg/d) for 8 weeks reduced Malondialdehyde (MDA) and IL-6 levels while increasing Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), demonstrating enhanced antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects [150]. This evidence concerns the gene IL6 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
