in this project, different nettle plants from north regions of iran including tonekabon, amol and gorgan were collected. the oil was extracted using soxhlet extraction apparatus and was subjected to series of physical and chemical tests and determinations consisting of refractive index, melting point, smoke point, nonsaponifiable matter, iodine value, saponification value, peroxide value, totox...

Background. To determine whether there is an association between diet and plasma insulin concentration that is independent of obesity, we studied the relation of dietary composition and caloric intake to obesity and plasma insulin concentrations in 215 nondiabetic men aged 32-74 years with angiographically proven coronary artery disease. Methods and Results. After adjusting for age, the intake ...
