Abstract

One alternative treatment for diabetes mellitus is herbal therapy. One example of herbal therapy that can be used to treat diabetes mellitus is cherry. Cherry (Muntingia calabura L.) is a plant that is widespread in Indonesia, including NTB. In West Nusa Tenggara, cherry plants are very abundant and can often be found on roadsides and in house yards. One of the compounds contained in cherry leaves which has antidiabetic and antioxidant activity is flavonoids. The aim of this research was to determine the potential of ethanol flavonoid extract to reduce blood sugar levels in mice induced by alloxan. The manufacture of cherry leaf ethanol extract was carried out using the sonication method, with the testing process including qualitative tests, quantitative tests, evaluation of cherry leaf ethanol extract suspension preparations, and measurement of fasting blood sugar. The results of blood sugar measurements showed that administering a dose of 300 mg/kg showed the best results which were almost the same as the positive control (metformin).

Abstract

Consuming healthy foods such as nutraceuticals or functional foods is very important to prevent and reduce the risk of degenerative and chronic diseases. Efforts to improve community knowledge and skills related to nutraceuticals are very important, so community service activities are carried out with the aim of providing socialization and training on the production of nutraceutical drinks from local natural ingredients, as well as health checks including blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and uric acid. The partners of this community service activity are PKK women and the community in Kongok Hamlet, Meninting Village, Batulayar District, West Lombok Regency, NTB. The community service activities consist of several stages, namely activity preparation, location survey and coordination with partners, socialization of nutraceutical drinks using PowerPoint slides and leaflets, training on the production of nutraceutical drinks, health checks, and ending with post-tests and activity evaluations using questionnaires. The 56 residents who attended were very enthusiastic in participating in the activities. The results of the questionnaire showed that 35.7% of the participants who attended were able to answer questions related to the socialization material with an average score of 74.3. The results of the activity evaluation questionnaire stated that activities like this are very important to do and the selection and provision of material are very good and clear. Thus, it can be concluded that this community service activity is very beneficial for the community and the socialization and training materials can be understood well by the participants of the community service activity.
