Effect of Using Grape Molasses as Anti Anemic
Abstract: The grape molasses was evaluated for its anti-anemic activity in rats. The effect of grape molasses dose on hemoglobin concentration, red blood cell count and packed cell volume was investigated. The doses 3 ml, 6 ml and 9 ml per day demonstrated anti-anemic property by significantly (p<0.05) for 20 days increasing the levels of red blood cell count, hemoglobin level and packed cell volume of treated animals. The effects of grape molasses on iron in rats were investigated, Phytochemical screening of the grape molasses revealed the presence amount of iron, and thus lend credence to its use in the management of anemia.
