Purpose
This study aimed at evaluation of the metabolic effects of honey, as a supplemental food, in patients suffering from type 1 diabetes mellitus. A crossover design (two 12-weeks intervention periods) was used to measure honey effects. The subjects were randomized into two groups (intervention to control [I/C] and control to intervention [C/I] groups. Each group consisted of 10 patients. . The subjects in the I/C group consumed 0.5 ml honey/kg/day in the first 12-week period (period 1) while the subjects in the C/I group did not receive honey as a control in period 1. After period 1 the subjects of each group exchanged their protocol for the following 12-week period (period 2).

- serum lipids [ Time Frame: 12 wk ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Fasting serum lipids (cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol) were measured at base line, cross over (12 wk) and end point of the study (24 wk)
- C-peptide [ Time Frame: 12 week ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Fasting and 2 hr postprandial C-peptide were measured at base line, cross over (12 wk) and end point of the study (24 wk)
