Abstract: The pre-treatments with turmeric powder, extract and their mixture was evaluated in this paper to unriddle their effects on the lipid profile of diabetic rats after daily feeding and administration of the crude aqueous extract of turmeric rhizome powder for three weeks. A significantly (P≤ 0.05) decrease in weight and plasma level of High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) were observed in alloxan-induced- diabetic rats in comparison with normal and pretreated groups.There was however a significant increase (P
