CBSTRACT

Sixty (60) albino rats of the wistar strain were used to investigate the effect different vegetables extracts modified diets; shared into two groups, one part fed with high sucrose diet while others were fed with normal ratchow. Electrolytes status were analysed in the plasma, liver and heart after four weeks of feeding.   Feeding of rats with high sucrose diet revealed a significant (p<0.05) increase in chloride, potassium and calcium in heart and significant (p<0.05) increased sodium level while potassium and chloride were significant (p<0.05) decreased in brain . Thus, vegetables extracts modified diet may be a good approached to improved electrolyte imbalance induced by excess sugar intake.
