Diabetes mellitus (DM) was one of the deadliest diseases in the world. DM was often associated with lipid metabolism error. Porang tubers contain glucomannan which could decrease cholesterol levels. Porang tubers also could be processed into the rice. This study analyzed the effect of porang-processed rice on LDL and HDL levels of DM-diagnosed patients.This study was conducted to determine the effect of porang-processed rice on LDL and HDL levels in DM-diagnosed patients.This study was an experimental study with the Pre-Test and Post-Test Control Group Design method, which used DM-diagnosed patients as research subjects. 24 research subjects were divided into 2 groups: the treatment group was given porang-processed rice and the control group was given white rice for 5 days. Measurement of LDL and HDL levels was carried out in both groups before and after treatment.There was a significant difference in giving porang-processed rice to LDL levels in DM-diagnosed patients (p = 0.021). There was no significant difference in giving porang-processed rice to HDL levels in DM patients (p = 0.102). However, there was a significant differencein deviation between LDL and HDL levelspre-test and post-test (p = 0,002; p = 0,001).There wasa significant difference between LDL levels in DM-diagnosed patients before and after being given porang-processed rice. There was no significant difference between HDL levels in DM patients before and after being given porang-processed rice. |
