This study investigated the effects of bungur leaves containing saponins, flavonoids and tannins on glucose and cholesterol levels in rat (Rattus norvegicus) test animals. Spectrophotometry results showed a significant decrease in glucose levels at different concentrations. SPSS analysis indicated that the data were normally distributed, and comparison of average glucose levels between treatment groups showed similar homogeneity. The significant value of bungur obtained was 0.014 < 0.05 from the ANOVA test, strengthening the conclusion that bungur leaves can contribute to glucose control which aims to increase the potential of active compounds contained in bungur samples in inhibiting blood glucose absorption.
