ABSTRACT
Well designed nutritional supplementation may be beneficial in diabetics – correcting nutrient deficiences.........
Key words: diabetics, metal supplementation

INTRODUCTION
As a result of inadequate insulin activity and/or hyperglycemia, diabetics tipically display subnomal tissue levels of magnesium, potassium, zinc and ascorbic acid (Bendich, 1989; Elamin and Tuvemo, 1990; Landin et al., 1992).......

MATERIALS AND METHODS
Investigations were performed on Wistar strain rats included in control (C) and experimental (E) groups. Diabete was induced with streptozicin in E group rats.....

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
Magnesium supplementation in diabetic rats enhanced glucose disposal, increased the acute insulin response to intravenous glucose and reduced fasting glucose.  Results are given in Table 1......
