  2. Insulin resistance in diabetic patients . [ Time Frame: Two months ]
    Effect of Rutin and vitamin C combination or vitamin C alone on insulin resistance in diabetic patients before i and after treatment for 8 weeks .

  3. Lipid profile in diabetic patients (TC,TG,HDL-c,LDL-c). [ Time Frame: Two months ]
    Impact of Rutin and vitamin C combination or vitamin C alone on lipid profile in diabetic patients (TC,TG,HDL-c,LDL-c).
