Compared with baseline values, administration of aniseed was associated with a significant decrease in fasting blood glucose concentrations and in blood levels of both total cholesterol and triglycerides. Moreover, blood levels of oxidative stress biomarkers decreased, and those of antioxidant factors increased.
