Abstract
The Effect of leaves and fruits of figs (Ficus carica, L.) and olive (Olea Europaea, L.) on obesity and kidney disorder in experimental rats were studied. Sixty six adult male albino rats of sprague-dawely weight (150-160g), were fed on a basal diet for 7days to make adjustment and then divided into three main groups as the following: The first main group (6 rats) (group (1)): fed on basal diet as a control (negative group), The second main group (30 rats): fed on the high fat diet with saturated fats to induce obese and then divided to five subgroups (6 rats) each one of them was fed on high fat diet as a control (positive group), another group rats fed on 5% olive (Olea eurpaea) leaves, while the last two groups rats fed on 5% figs (ficus carica) leaves, rats fed on 5% olive fruits and 5% fig fruits.
The third main group (30 rats): rats were injected with gentamicin (100mg/kg/day) to induce impaired kidney rats and then divided to subgroups each 6 rats, One group with impaired kidney fed on basal diet as a control positive group, the rest four groups with impaired kidney were fed on 5% olive leaves, 5% fig leaves, 5% olive fruits and 5% fig fruits. Administration of leaves and fruits of figs (Ficus carica, L.) and Olive (Olea Europaea, L.) to obesity rats at 5% level lowered the concentrations of total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-c, VLDL-c and decreased serum urea, creatinine and uric acid. On the other side, HDL-c was significant increased. Histopathological examination showed amelioration of histopathological lesions seen in kidney of kidney disorder rats when received the leaves and fruits of figs (Ficus carica, L.) and Olive (Olea Europaea, L.). So, from this study it can be concluded that intake of fruit and leaves powder of figs (Ficus carica, L.) and Olive (Olea Europaea, L.) especially at 5% can be useful for treating obesity and kidney disorder rats.
